Hunter 280

Well-equipped, cared for and clean Hunter 280 only sailed on freshwater. The interior is very spacious and there is a large swim platform -- nice features on a boat this size. The Hunter 280 is easy to sail single-handedly and has enough space to comfortably sail with family and friends. She is a fractional rig with a large mainsail and no backstay, which nicely opens the cockpit up for sailing and entertaining eight people comfortably. The boat was regularly washed, waxed and polished, and bottom every year. She's ready now to sail in any conditions.
