Review of the Hunter 260 by Brett Johnson

Year built 2006  
Location of boat Lake Norman  
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? This is a terrific boat. It's the first sailboat we've owned since moving to the Lake Norman area. It's perfect for the conditions of an inland lake. My kids love it almost as much as the backyard castle we bought them from DreamPlay Custom Outdoor Structures. When we can tear them away from their Carolina Castle, they love sailing on the 240. Couldn't ask for a better sailboat.  
Gear that's been added Nope. Just picnic basket.
