23.66' Hunter 235

SOLD!
"Grace." Lovingly restored, turn-key condition. Truly ready to launch for your daysailing adventures and one-night getaways. Easy trailering & launching, simple sailing, & shallow water are her specialties - can access places where the big boys can't go or even beach her on a sandy island shore, with only 18" draft with CB up (5'6" fully deployed). We've sailed her locally on the ICW (stopping for swimming & picnics on the islands, no dinghy req.) & in the Florida Keys.

Featuring:
Easy mast raising system with removable "baby stays"
Water ballast (adds 1,000 lbs. making her 3,000 lbs displacement with tank full)
Furling Jib
Lazy Jacks
No back stay
Spacious cockpit
Walk through transom with
Swim ladder

Completely Restored Hunter Trailer w new seaboard on bunks for easy sliding on & off.

"The stern is very broad and draft is only 18 inches with the board up. The rig is a simple single spreader affair without permanent backstay. Note that the spreaders are well swept aft.... "

"The water ballast tank is filled at the time of launching by simply removing a plug, and then replacing it in a couple minutes when the tank is full. When you haul the boat out, you simply remove the plug again and the water drains within two min., leaving you with a 2,000-pound boat to trailer.

"Down below, the 23.5 is a big 23-footer. Actually the LOA is 23.66 feet. There are V-berth forward, a short settee to port, a full-length settee berth to starboard, a huge double quarter-berth and a small galley. The portable head is located under the V-berth and the portable ice chest fits under the port settee." (Bob Perry, Sailing Magazine)

Kick-up rudder compliments the Centerboard for shallow water navigation

Hull: She has been trailer-kept and overall lightly used, so hull is in fine condition (not a single blister) and the white color you see is her original gel coat (not white paint).
