Hunter 37C

Engine has recently had injectors rebuilt, injector pump rebuilt, valves adjusted, water pump rebuilt, new motor mounts and alignment of prop shaft, new alternator 55 amp. and new bracket, new PYI dripless shaft seal in 2009 plus new bronze shaft skeg and new 3 blade bronze propeller. Engine starts and runs smooth with no smoke. Fuel always kept full to prevent moisture plus fuel additive added for smooth performance. Relius Marine Service has maintained the engine for about 5-6 years. All receipts since 2009 are on the boat. Batteries are about 5 years old. 2-6 volt golf cart for house and one group 27 12 volt for start.

Standing and running rigging all replaced in 2009. The original design of this boat provided a keel step for the mast. At some point a previous owner had this professionally redesigned to allow for the mast to be lowered for bridges then raised again. The mast was cut and hinged at the cabin top using the lower portion as a compression post. It appears as a keel step and for the purpose of support it actually is.
In 2009 when the rigging was made new the assemblies for raising and lowering were obsoleted and a traditional fixed stay system was re-installed.
It has running back stays appropriate for a staysail rig.
Headsail and staysail new in 2009. Mainsail is slightly small for the boat but is in good condition and works well. Harken furler new in 2009. All winches opened, cleaned and lubricated in 2009. Spinnaker is lightly used. Chain plates both sides removed, inspected, larger deck plates welded to better cover deck holes, re-bedded 2016.

This model of Hunter was built from 1978 through 1985. It's cutter-rigged and carries a fairly large sail area. These boats are scattered all over the world and were sailed to those destinations. While not immediately considered an offshore style vessel it is capable of ocean crossings. Of note - especially compared to other Hunters - is the inward-turning hull-deck flange and reasonably close spacing of bolts holding them together. This is a much preferred construction feature that costs more to do than out-turning flanges. This vessel's fuel tank was cleaned in 2009 by installing 3 Seabuilt brand clean out Inspection ports for Diesel Fuel Tanks. Entire fuel delivery system including hoses and filter were replaced at that time including float gauge. All through hulls and associated hoses were replaced at that time as well.

The specifications on these boats isn't always accurate. They say the fuel capacity is 44 gallons yet the seller reports never being able to put more than 39 gallon in even after cleaning the tank. Displacement shows under 18,000 LBS but boat weighs over 20,000 fully loaded for cruising in a sling during haul out.

Entering through the custom Companionway door you step down to a well equipped galley on your starboard side and an entrance door to the aft cabin on your port. Forward is the main salon with settees on both sides. The starboard settee converts to a larger berth by removing the seat back. Next forward is the head with separate shower to starboard and a walk through vanity area with basin and mirror to port. Next forward is the master cabin with 3 separate cushion V-berth. Vessel was extensively upgraded in 2009 through about 2016. All new interior foam and upholstery, new stainless and nylon New Found Metals opening windows with glass and not plastic, Raritan Manual Head and shower. Hot water tank new in 2016. Force-10 3 burner propane stove new 2009. Refrigeration compressor new in 2013.
