Review of the Hunter 460 by Peggysue

Year built 2002  
Location of boat Deltaville, Va  
The boat is sailed on Bays, sounds, or protected salt water  
How the boat is used Day sailing  
Normal wind strength 10-15 knots  
Average size of crew 2-4  
Liveaboard? No  
Owner bought the boat in 2002  
If the clock could be turned back, would owner buy again? Yes. It is a great boat for the value. It has alot of room below and it is easy to sail.She really slices through the water.  
Gear that's been added Not yet. We do plan on adding radar this fall. Right now I just use a handheld GPS  
Structural or complex improvements NO  
The boat's best features Rolling furling and storage space  
Problem areas in terms of design, materials, maintenance, etc. Nothing.  
Sailing characterisitcs  
Motoring characterisitcs  
Liveability Great! Lots of space. Everything is easy to get to except the batteries.  
The owner's experience in dealing with Hunter (if any) Great and one disappointment. I questioned the fact that my boat should have CO Detectors from the factory. They told me they didn't start installing them until after I purchased my boat. I just bought her in April 2002 and I know at least 3 other boats that were purchased around the same time and they had them.  
The owner's experience with the boat dealer or broker, if any The dealer has been great and taken care of explaining everything. They take time to answer all of our questions.  
Other comments The only thing I don't like is the battery placement. You have to undo the screws for the seat and then you need a screwdriver to take out 4 floor screws. Also, the refridge. The slat that it is on really waste alot of room. I think it could be bigger or at least take the wall slat out!
