Seaburban – A Sturdy & Ready Offshore Cruiser with a Proven Track Record

If you're in the market for a capable, safe, and meticulously prepared offshore cruiser, your search ends here. Built in 1987 by Hank Hinkley and a Canadian partner in Hamilton, this OCY sloop is designed by Montreal-based Pierre Meunier and offers unmatched build quality, storage, and safe navigation.

Seaburban is a testament to craftsmanship and readiness, having completed a non-stop, single-handed circumnavigation around the world (November 2019 to June 2020) without the use of GPS-aided electronics.

Now residing in the Pacific Northwest, Seaburban combines comfort, ease of use, seakeeping, and safety—everything an offshore sailor could ask for. Ready for its next adventure with a new owner.
