H23 with CB

The 1985 H23 came with the winged keel and a centerboard that drops down from the keel. Only about 25 were produced, I think. Hunter can tell you exactly. The CB does allow it to point a little closer. As far as design, I don't know. I guess Hunter didn't like it because it had such a short production run. Mine is OK, although, I tend to forget about it being there. Ernie '85 H23 s/v Seas the Moment

Have One, Done That

I own HUN23057D585. This is a Center Board h23. They only made a small number of these Center Board versions in early 1985. We just won The 2002 Hunter 23 Nationals with this boat. If you would like to know more about this boat, The Hunter 23 Nationals, a CD pix's of the Nationals or The Hunter 23 Class Assoc. Please contact me

Info Please, Ken

Yes, I would like information about the H23 Class Association. Please answer here or e-mail me @ ernierogers@sailnet.net. I sail my '86 h23 on Lake Conroe, a 22,000 acre lake in southeast Texas and I'm the only h23 on the lake. Conroe Yacht Club adopted Galveston Bay phrf, giving me a 246 non-spinnaker, but lists it as a Hunter 23, center board. I think this is way too low, but hey, don't we all. What do you guys think?
