Looking to add a roller furler to my Hunter 23 Can anyone link me the tangs/link plates they used to raise the roller furler out of the anchor well? If anyone has any pictures that would be helpful as well. Thank you in advance, trying to sort out my rig before launch.

Hi all, I joined this forum as I am considering picking up a Hunter 216. They come and go for sale at various prices as always. My question is regarding ACP cracking topsides particularly. I have read through everything on the internet and here regarding repair and understand the job. But as...

Hello I have searched older post but can not find an answer to my problem. I have a leak that is either a rubrail issue or the port stanchion gate. I went to remove the stanchion and I have one screw that is spinning. I can see down the other hole, I don’t see or feel an aluminum backing plate...

Is this the standard "wing keel" for the Hunter 23? I recently acquired this used 1985 Hunter 23 for a very good price (of course that means a lot of TLC required). After cleaning it up and applying bottom paint it is now in a marina slip and I still can't find a great answer online to help me...

Hello all from NZ. We are one of the few owners of a Hunter 356 in New Zealand. I'm going to be adding a large 400W solar panel to the aft end of our bimini. I hope to run the wires down the 'arch' to the port lazarette where the batteries are. I see wire connectors from the manufacturer in the...

I'm fixing up a 2005 Hunter 33, and mostly following Don Casey's book as well as the manual. For the galley, I was able to refinish a lot of the scratched handholds and cupboards by lightly sanding, applying a few coats of teak oil to bring back the color and grain, and then thinning out spar...

Hi all, First post here and really happy to be part of this forum, writting from Spain. I am a very happy new owner of a Hunter 33 – 2008, have been just wondering and thinking in a “strategy” for an upgraded electrical system (assuming the current setup is not that bad though). I have the...

I'm looking for some insight into what I should realistically expect from G/flex epoxy and keel movement on an old Hunter 25. My 1982 Hunter 25 came with a small keel smile. This spring, I ground it out, torqued the keel bolts (132 ft-lb), and slathered some G/flex epoxy in the gap. At...

Hi everyone, I am a first-time boat owner and recently purchased a 1984 Hunter 31. I have her on land in the Chesapeake in MD. I need to replace the plexiglass and frames for the Port and Starboard main porthole/windows. As seen in the images posted below, there are significant cracks, so they...

Hello all, The attached photo is of a bend wing on the keel of a Hunter 410 damaged during launch. Yard is willing to try and straighten it, at least partially, with us assuming liability Looking for opinions, not on the liability issue , but on the possibility of success in straightening the...

I have a 1991 Hunter 35.5 and I am looking to run wires from the battery storage area to the switch pannel/steareo. I can't figure out how they are currently ran even after looking at the wiring diagram. Any help on how to access wires in order to run some more would be much appreciated.

We own a new to us Hunter 38 and want to replace some running rigging. In the Operator's Manual they have a table with the specifications. On the table, in one column, they have Line Type. The options are: 32/3 pl, 16/16 pl, and Dyneema. Dyneema is obvious, but I am having trouble...

The boat is located on the Columbia River outside of Portland. looking to use it more this winter and do a variety of interior projects when things get cold. What heat source have you inhaled and why. And if you installed a stove like a Dickinson -did you figure out where to install one and how...

Was the design of the Hunter 23.5 intended to drag the motor when sailing at night? If I raise the motor it blocks the light. This is with a factory motor attached to the factory mount.

So it's trading real hard today on the Columbia River and! I heard to the boat to do some more repairs to get ready for sailing on Father's Day. A section of interior section of the hull starboard side galley was repainted few days ago when the weather was nice. Stepping aboard this afternoon...

Hunter 23.5 owner's manual says you can fly a Spinnaker. Wondering if there's more stress on the rigging flying a asymmetrical Spinnaker. No back stay on these boats. So if it can handle a Spinnaker can it handle an asymmetrical Spinnaker?

Discovered this weekend that one of my cockpit drains froze and split last weekend during the big snow here in Portland. Looking for advice how to repair or replace what is installed. It looks like the original fittings from 1984. Or maybe someone here on the forum knows of the source for the...

I’ve got a 1980 Hunter 30 Cherubini that I’m doing a steering pedestal overhaul on. As part of this I‘ve removed the two big instrument enclosures on either side of the pedestal that housed broken LCD displays for depth and speed - I can get this info off the Garmin display that will mount on...
