Sailing characterisitcs Love the in-mast furling,makes it easy to reef  
Motoring characterisitcs Motor's very well  
Liveability For two people its plenty of room and storage. Have had up to six adults sleep on boat.  
The owner's experience in dealing with Hunter (if any) Hunter has been always very helpful,had not had any problems.  
The owner's experience with the boat dealer or broker, if any Sailing Specialties has been great with service.  
Other comments Just came back from three week cruise and it was great with our boat with over nighters on the hook and at marina's. The boat was so much more than we expected,can't wait to go out on a long trip again.
