Review of the Hunter 33.5 by Severs

Year built 1992  
Location of boat IJmuiden The Netherlands  
The boat is sailed on Bays, sounds, or protected salt water  
How the boat is used Weekends and longer  
Normal wind strength 16-22 knots  
Average size of crew 2-4  
Liveaboard? No  
Owner bought the boat in 2000  
If the clock could be turned back, would owner buy again? I think i did. But i like the 35.5 even more  
Gear that's been added  
Structural or complex improvements The system for lower the mainsail And i put 300 pounds lead in the front Also i buy a 140% genoa  
The boat's best features Comfortable sailor with lot of space  
Problem areas in terms of design, materials, maintenance, etc.  
Sailing characterisitcs Before i put weight in the front the ship whas very onstable and ruf in the waves of 2 to 4 meter. Now its muts better The bigger Genoa makes the balance of the ship also a lot better. I sail with full sails at 22 knots  
Motoring characterisitcs Under my Hunter is a blade of 16 x 13" this is not a good one in reverse i have no power.  
Liveability Its perfect  
The owner's experience in dealing with Hunter (if any)  
The owner's experience with the boat dealer or broker, if any It whas nice
