Comentario del broker
Hunter Boats (or British Hunter rather than American Hunter) began building in 1968 with the Squib, a keelboat that is seen at sailing clubs all over the world. When the designer David Thomas joined them in 1975, Hunter's range of GRP yachts broadened and in the mid 1980s the Horizon cruisers began production.
The Hunter 23 is the smallest of the Horizon range but she certainly doesn't feel it. There's plenty of space in the cockpit and she's easy to move around on deck. Bilge keels give you the versatility to go (and stay) where others can't, and in some places significantly reduce your berthing costs. As you would expect with a designer such as David Thomas, she's rigged for efficiency and so a self-tacking jib and larger mainsail help offset the lack of upwind performance usually associated with bilge keelers. She does have an engine well as standard however, to improve handling under power there is a 6hp longshaft outboard on a bracket aft (currently off the boat for annual service).
Going below she has a surprisingly large companionway and so again, moving around is easy. The layout is open and spacious, the galley and chart table opposite each other to take advantage of maximum headroom and the separate aft cabin makes staying aboard comfortable. She's in the yard for the winter and was found clean and dry and fresh below, solid and tidy on deck and appears to be a good example of a very well thought out small cruiser.
