I just was on the hunter web site, looking for the latest H260. It appears that Hunter is not making the water ballast anymore? Anyone know anything about this?

Old news

It's old news now. The 240 is replced by the 25 and the 260 is replced by the 27. So you folks looking for a new trailer sailor had better get bigger SUVs or look to another brand. I wonder if the old 260's will hold their prices longer because they are no longer made.

The New 25 Would Work

.. As a trailerable boat. It only draws 2 feet. I think the 27 is more in line with the Cats now; either a wing at 3.5' or fin at 5'

New 25

The new 25 doesn't have much of a keel. One of the salesmen at the Chicago show slipped up and said it was a big cost savings, but performance upwind would be dismal. There's just a little stub for a keel. I'm not sure it would do much at all upwind. I'd look at the used market.
