COMMENTS
The Hunter Horizon 23 is a stable, spacious family cruiser with good performance and easy handling. This example has been well cared for and maintained and is presented in very good order. She benefits from a replacement Beta 13.5hp diesel engine, new standing rigging and roller furling unit in 2022 and preventative epoxy treatment to her hull.
