Hunter 23.5 Various
I never had to reroute these lines; they were running through the boom when I got the boat. Probably they came from the factory like this, as it was a 1-owner boat and he wasn't the type to modify much. It's a '95 H23.5. The colors were (from port to st'bd) wht/blue, wht/red, wht/blue. The functions were outhaul, unknown, unknown.

But at one time, I wanted to verify the colors and functions were per the factory specs. (I know... a tad OCD) I searched for many hours on this site and elsewhere. Never did find anything truly definitive for the H23.5.

Search for "boom reef outhaul topping red blue" and you'll find this discussion:

If I understand correctly, he has:
port /blue topping
mid /red outhaul
st'bd /grn reef

Still would like to know original Hunter spec, but I guess I've learned enough about Hunter by now to feel pretty certain that not all of the boats were rigged exactly the same.

I have had boat three years,No problem with present rigging .What I,m trying to do is lengthen the reef ,topping line to mid boom as I solo mostly,would make it easier to reef from tiller than from front of boom.I know there is a post with line organizer bottom of boom to what i think was ceats on either side of boom.The post looked great would like to copy.
