Hunter 280

Manufacturer Provided Description

The Hunter 280 was conceived to be a spirited performer - fun to sail and cruise. Or to just spend the weekend on, mainstayed up in a romantic cove. Warren Luhrs and the rest of the Hunter Design Team worked hard to put many of the special and benefits usually found on their larger vessels into this smaller package. The 280 sail plan incorporates a fractional rig with a full-roach, fully-battened mainsail and roller furling jib for easy and efficient handling. All lines lead aft for single or shorthanded sailing. The large cockpit provides the center from which to sail or entertain. It deals rear rail chairs, a choice of tiller or optional wheel navigation, and a walk-through transom with swim floor. The 280's spacious inside boasts an aft double dock, a large private front with shower, forward V-dock, U-Shaped dinette that converts into a large double dock, and a well-equipped galley. For potential, you can choose from two inboard diesel engines. And depending on your cruising needs, you can choose a shoal or optional deep keel. The Hunter 280 comes with the Cruise Pac as basic machinery. It isn't just sails, winches, and running rigging. It's an extensive list of things like galley, mainstay, fire extinguisher, running illumination, life jackets - even a copy of Chapman's Piloting, Seamanship, and Small Boat Handling . And Hunter backs its vessels with a five-year limited body and bottom blister guarantee.
