From the drawing board of noted sport boat designer Glenn Hendrickson, the New Hunter 216 is truly a fun boat. Whether you are a novice or a seasoned skipper, you will appreciate the forgiving nature of the rig, the stability of the hull, and the simplicity of sailing it. The innovative underbody will provide exhilarating performance when pushed with the ability to power down whenever needed. The large cockpit will accomodate the crew with comfort and the cuddy can handle a portable head and a V-berth with storage. A special hydraulic lift mechanism allows for effortless lifting of the lead keel, a unique fitting, VARA inboard rudder gives real performance with true beaching ability. Construction is by Hunter's patented Advanced Composite Process, which combines thermoformed UV protected plastic, fiberglass mat and injected foam. The result is a tough, almost maintenance free hull that is virtually unsinkable.
