The boat's best features Trailerability Roomy cockpit Accessibility of the sheets for solo-sailing Folding ladder  
Problem areas in terms of design, materials, maintenance, etc. Ladder needs 2 more rungs sail and bimini covers are made with poor zippers and velcro Front berth too short and small for 2 Fun boat for 1 or 2 overnites but not more  
Sailing characterisitcs Slow but manuvers well centerboard and ballast system make it hard to hold a reach  
Motoring characterisitcs no probs  
Liveability cozy for just an intimate 2  
The owner's experience in dealing with Hunter (if any) Good  
The owner's experience with the boat dealer or broker, if any
