Review of the Hunter 240 by Bill Krause

Year built 1998  
Location of boat Pa.  
The boat is sailed on Bays, sounds, or protected salt water  
How the boat is used Weekends and longer  
Normal wind strength less than 10 knots  
Average size of crew 2-4  
Liveaboard?  
Owner bought the boat in 1998  
If the clock could be turned back, would owner buy again? Yes, the plan is to trailer  
Gear that's been added just got boat at the end of last season,but had dealer add depth and knot meter, and compass. am planning on putting on self furler before this next season and purchasing a vhf radio  
Structural or complex improvements no  
The boat's best features a diito what i've heard from many other owners big and smaller boats----you get a fair amount of boat for your money, also being able to trailer and still be able to have a big enough boat to spend some long weekends on  
Problem areas in terms of design, materials, maintenance, etc. nothing,knock on fiberglass --yet  
Sailing characterisitcs boat soes heal a little, in the first few times out not even knowing my boat that well i was out sailing precisions  
Motoring characterisitcs have a honda 4 stroke 8hp  
Liveability don't know yet  
The owner's experience in dealing with Hunter (if any) didn't  
The owner's experience with the boat dealer or broker, if any friendly, knowledgeable, responsive, and fair
