Hunter 240 Aqualand Marina, Lake Lanier
Headed from Wildwood to Jupiter Florida to purchase 1998 H240. We have to tow back to Atlanta. If it keeps raining we may just sail her.
We have made it to Aqualand at Lake Lanier. We have rented slip Y082 in Tranquil Cove. The boat is still on the trailer in dry storage until I can get he fitted out and the mast up. My son and I may have her in the water on Monday.

Congrats! You may get to sail her while on the trailer from the looks of the radar this AM.

Use to camp out many years ago on sailboats during winter months on Lanier long before being a sailboat dealer.
If you have any questions feel free to ask me

I looked at the front of the mast above the base and did not notice anything that looked like an attachment point for the gin pole. My boat is missing the pole, which I have ordered. is there something else I am missing?

Congratulations on your new sailboat!!

Hardware to attach the pole to the mast, deck OR stanchions. The list of what else is missing can be endless.

FirsT his trailer needs to be straightened out as it was not designed for his boat. He is talking to Snug Harbor who was a former Hunter dealer suggesting centerboard be. Inspected as well as bottom of hull particularly the cb housing.

As far as mast raise system, new pole ordered and will get back with me when it arrives
