Review of the Hunter 19_93-96 by Brandi Hagerman

Year built 1995  
Location of boat Belews Lake  
The boat is sailed on Lakes  
How the boat is used Weekends and longer  
Normal wind strength 10-15 knots  
Average size of crew 2-4  
Liveaboard? No  
Owner bought the boat in 2004  
If the clock could be turned back, would owner buy again? No. This boat is not large enough for my needs. It is also not worth the price I paid for it. But that's typical with Hunters in NC - over-priced.  
Gear that's been added Stereo System with cd player. Blender.  
Structural or complex improvements No.  
The boat's best features Daysailing. It's definitely not made for staying overnight.  
Problem areas in terms of design, materials, maintenance, etc. The interior smells like mold. It doesn't go to weather well.  
Sailing characterisitcs Sailing is pretty good on calm wind days. I'd hate to be out when it's blowing.  
Motoring characterisitcs Motors fine.  
Liveability Too small.  
The owner's experience in dealing with Hunter (if any) Never dealt with Hunter.  
The owner's experience with the boat dealer or broker, if any Bought from an individual. Dealers in NC are too expensive. They charge an arm and a leg.  
Other comments It's gonna be for sale soon.
