Saw the 426 Raised Cabin.

..at the Long Beach (CA) boat show. Only boat I went on. They really have a winner here, along with the other -6 iterations, evidently. The salon is large, the galley impressive in its use of storage and the seperate refrig and freezer will make the galley crew cry. I am not a proponent of the seperate shower stall, but they seem to have put them in without shrinking the heads too much. Lots of upgrades on materials, fixtures and systems. And, I LOVE that huge cockpit locker. I think the Hunter line is even more competitive now and that its good for the whole industry.

Loved it too! Bought one!

Saw hull # 101 at the Newport show and feel in love and bought it! It is on display at Boston currently then back home to Mystic, CT where it will be cleaned, winterized and put to sleep until awakening next spring for her initial summer of crusing. The 7 foot head room really gives the boat an incredible open feel below decks, and the large storage locker in the cockpit (like on the 356) is one of the things that impressed me enough to buy. The A/C, genset, flat screen TV, Galley etc. etc. didn't hurt the sales pitch either!
