2005 Hunter 33 " Spicy Tuna" — no broker, priced accordingly.
Job relocation is forcing me to sell our sailboat, and I want her to go to a family who'll enjoy her as much as we have. She's a great example of the Hunter 33 — comfortable enough for a family cruise with berths for six, yet simple enough to single-hand. She's currently on the hard with the winter cover already removed and is ready to go sailing. Very light usage by both myself and the previous owner. A recent 2025 survey is available.
KEY FEATURES:
- Doyle Furling Main & 110% Furling Jib (2016) — Both sails were replaced in 2016 with quality Doyle canvas. The in-mast furling main makes shorthanded sailing genuinely easy — I can reef or furl from the cockpit without leaving the helm.
-
- Custom Winter Cover (2022) — Had this made by Anchors & Thread in Portsmouth, RI (approximately $6,000). It fits perfectly and means I'll never need shrink wrap again. Conveys with the boat.
-
- Air Conditioner (2019) — Installed in 2019, making the cabin comfortable for summer nights at the dock or on a mooring.
-
- New Cushions (2020) — Interior cushions replaced in 2020 and still look great.
-
- Custom Teak Companionway Door (2021) — Beautiful upgrade; original slats also convey with the sale.
-
- Upgraded Folding Wheel — Folds away to open up the cockpit when at anchor.
-
- Refrigerator — Onboard refrigeration for extended cruising.
