Broker's Comments

This is quite a tidy Hunter Pilot 27. She has been clearly well maintained and cared for. New recent ownership has seen all of her big ticket items replaced - standing rigging, new sails and new windows 2026. The Pack-away sail cover is 2026.
The Spray Hood was washed, stitched, re-proofed and given new windows this year.
She also boasts an electric windlass, cabin heating and hot water.
With the inside helm position as well as the cockpit tiller steering she offers so much opportunity to sail in the Solent's unpredictable climate and allowing you to lengthen the season at both ends. Oh and don't forget her shallow bilge keel you can creep into so many more bays.

Owner note:
She was finished by the FACTORY at the same time fitting the whole list of extras.
Some people would be intrigued, as I was, that she was built for one of the families owning the Hunter company.

Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
