New owner of missing Hunter 37C

Hi there H37C Owners,

Its a new year and I am taking another stab at refining the database of our boats. Attached is a copy of what I have so far. Missing info is highlighted yellow. For the build month, all I need is the last letter of your HIN (hull identification number, located on the upper right edge of the transom). There are also a couple of fields that are not shown publicly: your real name and your email (both are optional if you want to include them). So, if you have any updates or corrections, post them here, or PM me or email me at jameslegere[at]eastlink.ca (put the @ in the appropriate spot...). Once I have updated the data base as far as I can, I will make it available via email to any interested owners. I will also be updating the H37C History soon, if you have any other info for me.

I WOULD PARTICULARLY LIKE TO HEAR FROM THE FOLLOWING OWNERS- I don't have your HIN or enough info to include your boat at present: JohnB; Richard Shelby; Adjusterdehart; aboarduet; Pishon; emilbec; Steve h37c; smittyssi; YEHUDI; brobins75; merrickm65; CaptDanS; ybrad; tansey; Ollie Ree

Thanks for your help everyone! ;)

Jim,

I am thankful for this forum and all the Hunter knowledge within. I purchased S/V Symbiont from my brother, who purchased her in 1985. Since the purchase this April 2012 and have been updating her for the past 4 months. She has spend her entire 32 years sailing the Chesapeake Bay.

Welcome aboard! I have entered you boat. It is one of the early 1980 models, built in August 1979. The nearest sistership in the database is hull 119 (Cat's Cradle) in Tacoma WA - you might not get a chance to raft up with her... There is a great bunch of helpful folks here at the Cherubini forum, so ask away! If you want a copy of the database in excel format, email me at jameslegere[at]eastlink.ca

You can raft up with me as I'm about a days sail away from you in Grand Bahama. Will be down in the Nassau area at some point in the new year.

Wow! Congratulations on your new H37-Cutter. Hull #003 and you sailed her 600 miles along the Pacific coast? Great testimony to the construction of our boats. Says something about you as well! Welcome aboard.

Hunter 37C Database Updates

I have added Eric's MANANA to the database. Welcome aboard!

Also, Richard Shelby has informed me that s/v RAVEN has been sold to another Richard, who will hopefully turn up here on the forum before long...

Folks: any other changes or updates, feel free to make them known!

Jim,

I had thought I got my vessel added a short time ago but I don't see it. I purchased the sailboat that my brother has owned since 1985 (he is the 3rd owner) in April 2012. She has sailed to Charleston, SC. but spent most of her life in the Chesapeake Bay.
I am currently fully refitting her top to bottom in hopes of sailing her to the islands in the years to come.

Love the knowledge base and this forum. It has been a huge help in strengths and weaknesses of my boat and great ideas on fixes.

Thanks,
Mike

H37 Cutter Database

Mike (& everyone else),

One of the problems with the database is how to keep a living document current on a website like this forum. I keep track of the info in an Excel spreadsheet but I really don't know how I can keep a copy of a document that I am often changing and updating here on HunterOwners.com; maybe Phil Herring can make some suggestions? Anyway, attached to this post is a copy of the data sorted by HIN as of November 26, 2012.

There are other spreadsheets that I maintain as well. One has all the HOW registered owners listed with H37Cs, but it does not capture individual, unique boats, because the owners may not have supplied HINs and it is impossible to sort through old owners, new owners, boats sold, name changes, etc.

Any member of this forum who wants a Excel copy of the database can PM or email me and I will send it along. Thank you all for your help in this project.

Hey, welcome aboard! Your boat is celebrating her 34th birthday this month. She rolled out of the boatshop right after Blaise Pascal's 'MIDNIGHT SUN', the boat that has done so well racing in the Gulf of Mexico - sisterships!

Email me or PM if you would like me to send you an Excel copy of the database.

Most of her life was on the Chesapeake until we bought her in 2005. A fun trip down the East coast.
