Whinestopper Hunter 170 Columbus
Hi. I was concerned that I've not read any positive threads about the 170. I took mine out solo this week for the first time this year, set up the mast, sailed for a few hours, got the Honda outboard running and practiced on the reservoir before the upcoming trip to Lake Huron. Wanted to be sure everything was ready. Still trying to find the perfect balance between speed and comfort. Love the boat again.

Hunter 170 Lake Sammamish WA
Lots of positive H 170 threads here. Just page down to some of the threads on page 2, 3, etc.

I sold mine last year, but enjoyed sailing it for about 3 years before that. I'll admit I consider it a bit "squirrelly" when the wind picked up unless I reefed the boat down a bit, but a great reasonably priced day sailer in my book.
