Huckins Ortega 1951 40' $108,000

Lovingly maintained Huckins Ortega as these excerpts from a survey completed April 2010 state:

“The vessel as a whole was constructed using the finest quality workmanship and marine grade materials throughout.

The vessel has undergone constant upgrades over the years and expertly maintained as a classic yacht.

The main construction material in her hull is cold molded mahogany with a fiberglass overlay on the exterior and interior of the hull.

The deck is constructed of marine grade plywood also covered with a fiberglass laminate.

The vessel is powered by twin 350 H.P. Crusader gasoline engines.


  • General Condition of Topsides: Very Good

  • General Condition of House and Deck: Very Good

  • General Condition of Hull: Very Good

  • General Condition of Interior: Very Good

  • General Condition of Bilge and Engine Compartment: Clean
    & Dry

Upon completion of the survey, the vessel “Beighleywick” appears in sound structural condition, needing only routine maintenance work, as is usually the case with a used vessel at the time of spring commissioning.

She has been used as a pleasure cruiser and has been maintained in above average condition, having been kept in near bristol condition.

Based on the condition of the vessel and the equipment on board, the vessel has a replacement value (new) of $575,000.”

The vessel has been maintained to very high standards and is aggressively priced at $108,000.

The April 2010 survey is available to serious inquiries only.

The Ortega hull is a planing hull ("Quadraconic") developed by Huckins for WW II PT Boats - it was so successful it was licensed to two other companies building PT Boats.

The hull design was noted for its lack of pounding at speed.

In addition this hull is considered quieter underway due to its composite construction.
