When designers at huckins yacht penned a 36-footer back in 1936, they probably couldn't even dream of it becoming the basis for what the builder is doing today. And yet here are those same lines reimagined more than 80 years later - with classic styling nods from the stanchions to the vents in the side windows - being offered in composite construction with the owner's choice of hybrid or outboard power, The first hull of the Huckins Sportsman 38 is scheduled to be under construction as you read this, with the yacht's debut planned for the Newport International Boat Show in September. The Sportsman 38 will be the first model from the builder available with a hybrid propulsion package: twin 380 hp Cummins QSB 6.7s for a top-end above 35 knots, and a 20 hp Elco EP for cruising at 7 knots in silence.
