Review of the Hunter 25_73-83 by Jack Harness

Year built 1977  
Location of boat Neenah, WI.  
The boat is sailed on Lakes  
How the boat is used Racing  
Normal wind strength 16-22 knots  
Average size of crew 2-4  
Liveaboard? No  
Owner bought the boat in 1998  
If the clock could be turned back, would owner buy again? Yes, I like the boat very much, I find it goes to wind very well and in PERF racing that helps a great deal.  
Gear that's been added Just new sails.  
Structural or complex improvements I moved the mast aft about 2 inches and had some soft spots repaired.  
The boat's best features The narrow haul lets me go to wind very easy and also down wind with no problems.  
Problem areas in terms of design, materials, maintenance, etc. Other then some soft spots on the deck, which I had repaired, there has been no problems.  
Sailing characterisitcs  
Motoring characterisitcs  
Liveability V-birth two quarter births, sink table, stove.  
The owner's experience in dealing with Hunter (if any) Very satisfied.  
The owner's experience with the boat dealer or broker, if any No problems.  
Other comments We enjoy the boat very much.
