Hunter Marine Launches All New Hybrid Model, Integrated
Design Blends Sail and Power Together in a Trailerable
Package !
America’s largest sailboat producer, Hunter
Marine Corporation, has now completed prototype testing
of its latest model; the Hunter 27 “Edge”.
It may seem strange, in today’s energy-focused
environment, that Hunter would develop a sailing craft
with a powerboat twist. However, in recognition that
its customers are requesting more flexibility in a
small trailerable package, Hunter has responded with
a multi-purpose family sport boat that is sure to
please active families who enjoy being on the water.
The new Hunter 27 Edge offer boaters a new level of
integrated design. The Edge blends the freedom of
sailing with the flexibility of a powerboat –
combined in a trailerable package. Depending on the
weather, or your own desire, you can choose to raise
the sails – or lower the engine. Sailing, fishing,
sightseeing, swimming, and wake-boarding are all part
of the onwater family activities the Edge can bring
to your leisure time. The unique hull shape allows
for excellent sailing characteristics, plus provides
a stable platform for planing under power.
Trailerability is enhanced with a swing keel, water
ballast, plus a simple mast raising system. The interior
features two double berths, a generous galley and
large salon - accented by warm Cherry laminates. 1.8m
headroom and large windows enhance the spacious feeling
for days and nights aboard.
The new Hunter 27 Edge will be available for factory
completions beginning in August 2008.
