new at sailing

would like to know from any owners of a 19ft. 93 Hunter, how they like the boat, and any thoughts that they may have. We have rented sunfish. This would be our first boat, for husband, wife and two teenagers.

WB 19 Suitability

As a WB 19 sailor or nearly 5 years, I can report that it is a fine craft for two big people and that's about it. I have taken three adults out, but would not want to make a regular habit of it. The cockpit become very crowded and sleeping would be too much. I would suggest you take a good look at the 23.5's for the elbow room necessary for four people and the few extra thousand dollars would be well spent if you are considering an older craft.

19 feet of fun

I agree with the previous post. I had a H19 and loved it. It was my first "large" boat. It sailed great and was a good size for two adults. I kept the boat for a year and then traded up to a H240. I would suggest that with a family of four, you look hard at doing the same. Should be able to find a used 240 for a reasonable price. The 240 sails eaisly, and gives lots of room. Enjoy and good luck! Daniel, S/V Endeavors
