“Chinchero” is a stunning example of this classic long-keeled ketch-rigged blue-water cruiser. One of the last Nic 38 hulls built, she was fitted out to a high standard by Stangate Wharf, as Finisterre build no.1.
The centre-cockpit layout allows privacy for owners and guests. The twin berth aft cabin has a separate heads compartment and there is a spacious saloon (seating converts to a double berth), galley, heads/shower compartment and vee-berth forecabin ahead of the cockpit. The fixed windshield and hard top combine with canvas cockpit sides to provide adaptable shelter in any weather.
