Review of the Hunter 31 by Ted Oster

Year built 2007  
Location of boat Red Bud Marina  
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 2007  
If the clock could be turned back, would owner buy again? The boat overall is great and in many ways exceeds my expectations. Yes, I would buy this boat again.  
Gear that's been added No  
Structural or complex improvements No  
The boat's best features The furling main sail and  
Problem areas in terms of design, materials, maintenance, etc. I am having some trouble with a leak in the area of the salon hatch and possibly in the area of the mast. Additionally I am experiencing stray voltage from a wiring problem.  
Sailing characterisitcs Light to moderately heavy lake winds. Small craft to 11m. Some catamaran time (300 hrs)  
Motoring characterisitcs  
Liveability The interior was well thought out in most cases. An easily accessable cooler storage area would have been nice. The large storage area under the cockpit seating area would be ideal with some minor modification. I plan on adding a shelve to the storage area and a gas shock (or two) This will hold the hatch open when accessing.  
The owner's experience in dealing with Hunter (if any) N/A  
The owner's experience with the boat dealer or broker, if any This is the second boat I have purchased from this dealer and overall they have been very responsive to any problems we have encountered.  
Other comments I would recommend the Hunter experience to others.
