The 272 is a fine example of the Hunter class.
The Hunter Horizon 272 is a strong, well designed boat. She has rather elegant lines. She has a draft of 1 metre so she can enter small harbours and explore far up rivers on a high tide. Inside she is very comfortable indeed. She is well equipped with a cooker that includes an oven, a separate grill and two rings on the hob.
Her twin keel means she can sit on sand and mud and watch the tide disappear. Better than being at anchor, you are likely to have a more settled night, provided you have chosen a reasonably flat bottom.
Kippa has a brand new Yanmar 1GM10 engine which runs beautifully. This was fitted in May 2007.
In June 2007 a new PPS stern gland. These are an excellent solution to the stern gland issue. They are virtually maintenance free. No need to pack grease every year.
Kippa is much more extensively equipped than most Hunters you will see. Print out the inventory page and then compare with others you find. The reason for this is that Kippa circumnavigated Britain in 2007 and during the trip was constantly improved.
Everything works well and she is in excellent order in every regard.
The sails are in very good conditon and have been checked by a sailmaker, valeted and are now being stored.
The interior is clean and smart.
Kippa has two anchors and 48 metres of chain
There are also a set of spares including impeller, gasket, filters and so on.
The engine has been winterised including an oil and filter change.
