Hinckley Yachts announces a new certified pre-owned (CPO) program, with the first certified pre-owned Hinckleys to appear on the brokerage market this spring. In order for a Hinckley to qualify for CPO status, it must have been serviced in the company’s seven service operations, or in a yard authorized to service Hinckley products. The boat must then undergo inspection and be listed for sale with a Hinckley-owned sales office. There is no program cost to the seller or buyer of the certified pre-owned boat. “Hinckleys already retain their value well when resold, and have among the lowest depreciation rates in the industry. We think that the certified pre-owned program will further enhance value retention,” said Hinckley CEO Peter O’Connell.
