Broker's Comments

The Hunter Horizon 23 is another great example of accommodation and performance from Hunter boats. The twin keels provide hydrodynamic lift and therefore help drive the hull efficiently. Sailing performance and seakeeping is reported to be good for the size of boat, which is complemented by an incredibly spacious interior for 23'. This interior has a comfortable headroom, double aft berth, separate heads, spacious galley, saloon and finally another berth in the forepeak.

This version looks to be well cared for, clean, tidy and thoughtfully set-up. The engine has been regularly maintained and fresh water flushed after every use. The control cables were also replaced recently, alongwith other upgrades listed. If you are looking for a neat, spacious cruiser of this size, able to dry out and cope with coastal passages, this boat is well worthy of consideration. If you have any queries, or would like to organise a personal viewing, then please contact our office and we would be pleased to help.

These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
