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 2005  
If the clock could be turned back, would owner buy again? Yes  
Gear that's been added Temp gauge and 3 bladed prop  
Structural or complex improvements no  
The boat's best features storage, performance, style  
Problem areas in terms of design, materials, maintenance, etc. Some gel coat problems  
Sailing characterisitcs Really fun to sail - very solid  
Motoring characterisitcs Big difference with the 3 bladed prop, especially around the dock and against a tide. Absolutely no vibration at any rpm.  
Liveability Very nice for a couple  
The owner's experience in dealing with Hunter (if any) Very quick on my previous boat (33)  
The owner's experience with the boat dealer or broker, if any Very knowlegeable, but a little slow because they are selling so many boats.
