Broker's Comments
The Hunter Duette was designed by David Thomas and built by Hunter Boats (with over 200 having been built to date), is the twin keel version of the popular Hunter Sonata cruiser/racer. The Duette has an excellent reputation for stability and ease of handling; they also offer good performance.
With the single handed set up, shallow draft and ability to dry out, this makes these boats anideal sailing cruiser for those new to sailing and for the Norfolk Broads and East coast rivers.
The cabin is spacious for its size, with a forecabin, with standard V berths with stowage beneath. The cabin door is high gloss teak faced and there are non-standard headlinings and fitted carpet throughout. With a galley and heads and a nice sized saloon, perfect for the weekend or longer coastal crusiing.
