The boat is sailed on Bays, sounds, or protected salt water  
How the boat is used Day sailing  
Normal wind strength Press here to select  
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? Yes, excellent boat for the Money  
Gear that's been added No  
Structural or complex improvements No  
The boat's best features Layout, Ease of Handling,  
Problem areas in terms of design, materials, maintenance, etc. Minor leaking between Deck and Hull. Rudder required delamination work. Replaced bronze shaft with stainless steel.  
Sailing characterisitcs Excellent sailing characteristics in Moderate and Heavy Winds. Doesn't do as well in light winds.  
Motoring characterisitcs Boat is definitely underpowered engine wise. Yanmar 2GM20F is extremely reliable.  
Liveability Excellent Livability. Aft cabin is not really a "cabin" but it does provide privacy.  
The owner's experience in dealing with Hunter (if any) Did not dealwith Hunter. Bought from Single Owner who maintained the boat in an excellent manner.  
The owner's experience with the boat dealer or broker, if any  
Other comments For a 1988 Model it is excellent.
