Hi Hunter owners
Practical Sailor magazine is working to update its archived reviews of the Hunter 27 (1975-1984 models) and Hunter 30 (1974-1983 models), and we're looking for boat owners who would like to assist by submitting high-resolution photos (1 MB, 300 dpi or larger) and comments on the boats. The updated reviews and photos will run in an upcoming issue.
Some examples of photos that would be useful include:
- sailing shots (boat under way, from any angle);
- anchor shots (preferably beam or bow quarter);
- deck shots (long shots showing as much of deck bow to stern and vice versa, bow looking aft, stern looking forward);
- interior (galley, main saloon looking aft from v-berth, main saloon looking forward from companionway, head, engine access)
- deck details (bow roller, anchor locker, hatches, cleats, chain plates, fairleads, hatches, etc.)
- construction details (hauled out photo showing keel, etc., hull-deck joint - anchor locker often offers good view, through-hulls).
For any photos submitted for publication, we ask that the owners include the boat type, year built, name, homeport, and a photo credit for the photographer; for the Hunter 27, please also specify whether it's the inboard or outboard model. The photos need to be high resolution, that’s 300 dpi or 1 MB file size, or larger. We’ll gladly send PDFs and hard copies of the published review to anyone whose photo(s) run in the magazine.
Also, if you have any pertinent comments, we'd like to hear them. Some key points we’re interested in getting more owner feedback on include: the boat’s performance (under sail and power), engine access, construction quality, deck layout, interior layout, systems functions, age-related maintenance issues, pros/cons, and any pet peeves or praises particular to the boat.
All photos and comments can be submitted to akey@belvoir.com.
We appreciate your taking the time to help us update the review, and we look forward to hearing from you soon.
