Review of the Hunter 23 by Patrick Booth

Year built 1986  
Location of boat Albuquerque  
The boat is sailed on Lakes  
How the boat is used Weekends and longer  
Normal wind strength 10-15 knots  
Average size of crew 2-4  
Liveaboard? Yes  
Owner bought the boat in 2004  
If the clock could be turned back, would owner buy again? Yes. It was a great starter boat. Now I am looking to find something with a swing keel and more headroom. (I am 6'3")  
Gear that's been added I changed the horn cleats for a fairlead/cam cleat combo, which gave me an extra 1/2 knot, as the jib lay easier.  
Structural or complex improvements no  
The boat's best features  
Problem areas in terms of design, materials, maintenance, etc. I find the chine a bit sharp which makes it easily overpowered.  
Sailing characterisitcs  
Motoring characterisitcs  
Liveability Fine for weekends  
The owner's experience in dealing with Hunter (if any)  
The owner's experience with the boat dealer or broker, if any
