Broker's Comments

The Hunter 701 is the 23' variant of the well-known Hunter range, which means it contains all of the innovative accommodation design, seakeeping and ease of use, as the others.

Suitable for coastal cruising, racing, for the inexperienced or those just looking for straightforward sailing.

In this lifting keel version, the keel storage does not restrict movement through to the forward berths. With a good sized cockpit, four berths below, along with a sink and space for a portable cooker. Running rigging is led back to the cockpit increasing the ease of use; also comes with a new dinghy and recent engine service.

For more details or to arrange a personal viewing, please contact a member of the Boatshed Essex team and we would be pleased to help.
