hunter 26

Hey all, we have been concerned with the aft waterlevel on the hunter 26. We have a honda 9.9 off the back, only one battery below and no extras on board (day sailing only). The level of the water at the rear is always a few inches over the bottom lip of the boat and under motor or under sail...

Hello Everyone. I've spent many hours reading this forum and there are a lot of good people and information here. Thought I'd join in and introduce me and my boat and the work I'm doing. About me. I've sailed a small catamaran a little as a teen. A very little. So I'm a beginner. I had...

The pic below is with my boom swung out until it is against my Hunter 26's spreader bars. Even then I have a ton of rope lying in the cockpit. Do I really need all of this rope? Can I cut some of the excess off?

Have a Hunter 26 with the original Origo stove. In the past few weeks am getting very little flame. It is taking 3 times as long as before to boil water. -Yes I know you can't see much alcohol flame but it really doesn't get as hot as before - I did refill the pots with denatured alcohol, that...

Anyone have experience repairing the mast foot on a 1995 Hunter 26? Any advice is welcome. We tried to raise the mast today and forgot the baby stays. The mast then pitched to the side and ripped out the mast foot. I was going to order a new foot from this sites store but I am not sure how to...

All, I have spent a lot of time and energy looking for the largest cooler I could put in the cooler space on my Hunter 260, without taking off the counter top (I like the countertop space). The largest cooler I could find, that did not require any modification to the space, was an Igloo...

So I am a new owner of a Hunter 26 that has the aluminum tiller handle. It may be a replacement as the handle angle is slightly off / twisted and the replacement aluminum handles require drilling. Anyways, if I have 4+ people in the cockpit I cannot freely steer without hitting people in the...

All, A little over a year ago I bought a 2004 Hunter 260 sailboat. Crazy Dave Condon was kind enough to go through everything step by step with me on what I should look for when buying it. I wrote everything he told me down, and am here to share it. I hope this helps someone who is...

I need to replace the stern rail seats on my H26. The PO had changed out the OEM seats (presumably starboard and teak) with some plywood which doesn't seem to be quite the correct dimensions and has also deteriorated. I plan to use 1/2" HDPE (UV stabilized) for this project and would like to...

As I have only sailed this boat twice I would like some advice. This boat, Hunter 26 WB, has a fixed gooseneck. With the mainsheet pulled tight, the end of the boom sags down and hits the awning. The boom is NOT parallel with the deck. I'm thinking the leech is stretched and time for a new main...

Where can I find the jib sheave unit in the picture? thanks, Jimmy

I have a 1995 Hunter 26 water ballast that needs a trailer. I can only find a manufacturer who has the design for a 1998 Hunter 260 water ballast. Are they compatible?
