1994 Hunter 23.5 Trailerability, comfort, quality and fun are the key components in the Hunter 23.5, a sailboat that does so much, so well. A water ballast system is central to the 23.5's ability to be easily trailered, and yet able to sail. Additionally, the swing centerboard brings her minimum draft to only 18 inches for almost limitless gunkholing. The unique raising system allows singlehanded rigging and reduced launch times. The 23.5 has a large cockpit with centerboard controls and running rigging led aft for shorthanded sailing comfort and safety. Below is a spacious cabin with two double berths, convertible settees, a functional galley, and portable head tucked under the forward berth. There is excellent sitting headroom, plus standing headroom when the seahood is raised. Additionally, a functional galley, dining table, private head, and generous sleeping berths maximize the comfort and pleasure in your sailing vacations. Also, the dining table is designed to fit in the cockpit, enhancing the best seating area - the great outdoors. Discover the fresh thinking and attention to detail in the 23.5. Easy to sail, easy to trailer, and fun to own.

1996 Hunter 19 1996 Hunter 19, 1996 Hunter 19' sailboat with a 2 year-old CDI flexible furler and a Nissan 4 stroke engine. Swing centerboard. Water ballast system. New bottom paint. Price includes a like new trailer (only a few years old), brand new anchor and brand new winch handle. Pictures show some brown accumulation on the hull that has been cleaned off. Not pictured in the interior cabin picture are the cushions which are in amazing, like-new condition. (I keep them in the garage.) The boat draws about a foot of water with the centerboard up. Despite the spacious interior (which can sleep 4) it is nimble and very easy to handle for a 19 footer. I am a novice sailor and have no trouble sailing the boat on my own. The mast can be raised by one person and has a mast raising system. The water ballast keeps the boat incredibly stable, but it will still heel enough to be fun. When drained the boat is extremely light, making it easy to tow behind any vehicle. Other features: Bimini top (a rare find on a hunter and is key during the summer), stove and toilet (never used!), molded non-skid deck, 2 cockpit lockers, stainless swim ladder, forward opening hatch, open transom design with huge cockpit. If you don't know Hunter you should look into this company. These sailboats are amazing!We are moving off the water or else I would not be selling this boat. Must see!! $6295

The survey on this Vessel was $12000. I have added: 2 chart plotters, a new compass, Radar, a second depth finder, 3 bank Charging system, an AC system, Hailer, Auto fog horn system, Wind gauge, Roller furling. new Jib, and TV and TV accessories. The new additions are well over $6000 I am using Navionic chips which covers all the Great Lakes and the North channel. I taught Navigation at School Craft College for many years.

Boat and stand are on Drummond Island. It is buyer's responsibility to pick up here. This boat has 2 chart plotters. If you want a lower price, I am willing to sell it with one chart plotter minus the radar. this price can be negotiated.
