I have owned a variety of sailboats over the years but am thinking about transitioning to a small motor yacht to make it a little easier to spend time on the water. I recently came across a Vineyard Yachts Hawk 29 for sale and like the looks and size but cannot find much information on the designer/builder and really nothing about this model. I understand they closed up shop in the mid-80s, pre-internet days, so not really too surprising. Does anyone here have any experience with this boat/builder, or can they direct me to any online or print information about them? Thanks,
That looks like a lot of boat in a little hull. A bit top heavy, and with that single screw well let's say it's a good thing you're coming from a sailboat cause she'll be a beast to dock in any kind of wind. Probably why there's nothing on them. There were a lot of boat companies that came and went in the 80's and some bad built boats. To me it looks like one to pass on.
