Review of the Hunter 31_83-87 by Howard

Year built 1985  
Location of boat Haverstraw Marina, NY  
The boat is sailed on Rivers  
How the boat is used Day sailing  
Normal wind strength 10-15 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? No. The first time out the gear shift broke and I got stuck in reverse. Parts were not available and I can not even think of the cost.  
Gear that's been added None yet.  
Structural or complex improvements No  
The boat's best features It floats  
Problem areas in terms of design, materials, maintenance, etc. The gear shift  
Sailing characterisitcs nice  
Motoring characterisitcs With the gear shift I can not send my thoughts over the internet. The boat, owned for 3 weeks was out once. It is still in repair.  
Liveability Nice  
The owner's experience in dealing with Hunter (if any) N/A  
The owner's experience with the boat dealer or broker, if any N/A
