ESSER is a Little Harbor WhisperJet 38 EC that has received the best of care and thoughtful updates throughout her life. Maintained by Hinckley Yacht Services and enrolled in the Yacht Care Program, ESSER presents in excellent condition and has benefitted from a huge amount of preventative maintenance and upgrades. She has tremendous features, including the Hinckley JetStick system, transom door, factory hardtop, air conditioning and twin Yanmar engines.

All exterior varnish was stripped and re coated with 10 coats of varnish in 2020.
