Review of the Hunter 35.5 by ted jensen

Year built 1989  
Location of boat SEWARD AK  
The boat is sailed on Bays, sounds, or protected salt water  
How the boat is used  
Normal wind strength 16-22 knots  
Average size of crew 2-4  
Liveaboard?  
Owner bought the boat in 1999  
If the clock could be turned back, would owner buy again? YES, BUT ASK ME AGAIN IN A YEAR  
Gear that's been added NO  
Structural or complex improvements NO  
The boat's best features IT HAS A REAL NICE HEATER, HERE IN ALASKA THATSIMPORTANT.  
Problem areas in terms of design, materials, maintenance, etc. NOTHING YET  
Sailing characterisitcs BOAT SAILS REAL FAST IN LIGHT AIR, 15-25KTSOF WIND YOU REALLY TAKE OFF. I SHOULD REEFMAIN SOONER BUT WHAT THE HELL IM HAVING WAY TOOMUCH FUN. IVE HAD THE BOAT SHOWING 13.7 KTSRUNNING WITH ABOUT 30 KTS OF WIND DOWN WIND  
Motoring characterisitcs TAKE IT FROM ME EITHER GET A 3 BLADE PROP ORSOME KIND OF FOLDING PROP. WAY TO MUCH VIBRATIONWITH A STOCK PROP, IVE ALSO HEARD YOU GET ABOUTA KNOT FASTER WITH A FOLDING PROP NEXT YEAR WE WILL SEE  
Liveability THE FRONT V BERTH IS BETTER SUITED TO SLEEP IN THEN THE AFT, THE AFT YOU CANT SET UP IN.  
The owner's experience in dealing with Hunter (if any) NO  
The owner's experience with the boat dealer or broker, if any NO MATTER WHO SELLS YOU THE BOAT ALLWAYS CHECKAND DOUBLE CHECK THINGS OUT FOR YOUR SELF.
