Review of the Hunter 34 by Tim Welsh

Year built 1986  
Location of boat Brady Mountain. Lake Ouachita. Arkansas  
The boat is sailed on Lakes  
How the boat is used Weekends and longer  
Normal wind strength 10-15 knots  
Average size of crew solo  
Liveaboard? No  
Owner bought the boat in 2003  
If the clock could be turned back, would owner buy again? Yes I would, It has about the most room for the buck, very fast and has a real sporty look.  
Gear that's been added Marine Air, FM Stereo system with cd, 7 speakers, including sub. gps. cockpit table, roller furling, dutchmen flaking system,bimini, and other misc items  
Structural or complex improvements no  
The boat's best features the b&r rigging and all of the lines run aft. the layout in the bathroom.  
Problem areas in terms of design, materials, maintenance, etc. nothing yet  
Sailing characterisitcs fast and responsive  
Motoring characterisitcs 7.5 knots tends to pull to the left under full throttle though  
Liveability will be great when I move onto it.  
The owner's experience in dealing with Hunter (if any)  
The owner's experience with the boat dealer or broker, if any
