Register with Boatshed to see 89 extra photos of this Hunter Horizon 273 Twin keels.Boatshed Essex are pleased to be presenting this Hunter Horizon 273, which was the last model in the popular Hunter range. They have a reputation as comfortable cruising boats, with a good sailing performance, partly due to the Hunter 'twin fin' keel re design. The twin keels also provide wider sailing opportunities, for a boat capable of drying-out, cruising rivers and estuaries, but also able to make extended coastal passages. The running rigging is led aft and well thought through, being manageable for single handed and family sailors alike. The boat is tidy, with spacious accommodation that is comfortable to use both at sea and in port and with a separate aft double cabin When I visited the boat I was struck by its great potential for good sailing performance and spacious, comfortable accommodation. With many uses and positive features, this boat has lots to offer singlehanded and group sailors or small families alike. The owners comment 'the boat sails well, with a good turn of speed and handles well in close quarters'. If you would like any further information or to arrange 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.This Hunter Horizon 273 Twin keels has been personally photographed and viewed by Jayne Markham of Boatshed Essex.
