Broker's Comments

The Hunter Liberty is just one of those boats that make you wonder why ALL small yachts can't be that easy, roomy and clever! A very roomy cockpit, a cabin that is cosy for three but ample for two for week-ends or longer, and a rig that is simplicity itself. 'Pick up mast, drop in to mount and lock' - no wires to tangle and snag. This boat has been owned by a thorough and competent yachtsman - you sense that the moment one steps on board, it all just FEELS right! I must admit, I'm more than a bit tempted by this one myself!
