Review of the Hunter 54 by Ryan Haagensen

Year built 1982  
Location of boat Honolulu  
The boat is sailed on Open ocean  
How the boat is used Day sailing  
Normal wind strength 10-15 knots  
Average size of crew 2-4  
Liveaboard? Yes  
Owner bought the boat in 2003  
If the clock could be turned back, would owner buy again? YES, ALOT OF BOAT FOR THE MONEY (Under 100K)  
Gear that's been added This vessel, 'Flexible Flyer' had been a dive charter boat on Maui for the past 8-10 years. It was very neglected except for a new Yanmar 76HP a few years ago. I have re-done all the electrical and plumbing. Added new electronics. Marine air conditioner. I am now working on the exterior- re-bedding all hardware, replacing running rigging.  
Structural or complex improvements Before I purchased the boat, the rudder and support system had been replaced (grounding)  
The boat's best features SPEED, Livability  
Problem areas in terms of design, materials, maintenance, etc. Nothing yet  
Sailing characterisitcs  
Motoring characterisitcs Fast, easy to handle  
Liveability Great for myself, my wife, and baby daughter in Honolulu.  
The owner's experience in dealing with Hunter (if any)  
The owner's experience with the boat dealer or broker, if any
