Review of the Hunter 23 by J

Year built 1986  
Location of boat Lake Wallenpaupack, Pa.  
The boat is sailed on Lakes  
How the boat is used  
Normal wind strength 10-15 knots  
Average size of crew 2-4  
Liveaboard?  
Owner bought the boat in 1997  
If the clock could be turned back, would owner buy again? Yes. Had some trouble in the beginning, as we are novice sailors, with the amount of heeling we experienced. We added some ballast, and the boat is a pleasure.  
Gear that's been added Ran lines back to the cabin.  
Structural or complex improvements Made lead weight for increased ballast.  
The boat's best features We love everything about the boat. It is probably the prettiest boat on our lake.  
Problem areas in terms of design, materials, maintenance, etc. Had a few water leaks, but that appears to be solved.  
Sailing characterisitcs Sails great.  
Motoring characterisitcs Use 8HP Mariner. Seems very adequate. Motor in and out of our slip without any problems.  
Liveability We've only used it for one overnight, but it was adequate for our needs.  
The owner's experience in dealing with Hunter (if any) Hunter did not seem very interested in giving me information on sail covers, stern rails etc. Probably because it was an older boat????  
The owner's experience with the boat dealer or broker, if any n/a
