Construction
Hunter uses composite construction techniques. While other manufacturers seek for innovative style or skill, Hunter goes for innovative building. Molded liners stiffen the hull reducing costs while maintaining a level of integrity. The deck is secured from outside glued and bolted through. The hull topsides are balsa cored to reduce weight along with the balsa cored deck. The 42 Passage itself has a reputation within the brokerage world as being one of the best constructed Hunter. more

I met with clients who wanted to view a classic yacht that we had for sale. They told me, “We really like the Hunter 45, but our friends tell us these are not quality boats. They told us to look at older better built designs.” I could not help feeling that their friends might be leading them astray. I asked what kind of sailing they had planned. “We would like to cruise the Bahamas and Caribbean.” They were not interested in a serious offshore sailing. While the quality of Beneteau, Hunter, and Catalinas is lower than the designs their friends told them about, their goals seemed to fit with a Hunter if that was what they liked. As a Bahamas and Caribbean cruiser, you will not find many yachts that offer a more compelling value than a Hunter 42 Passage. more

Engine and Underway
The light air performance is the key to the Hunters. The 42 is fast designed where you spend most of your cruising. One broker says, “I really like these. I have logged thousands of miles on them, and these are great boats. They sail fast.” They are functionally sound for island hopping and Bahamas gunkholing. The swept spreaders of the B&R rig on most limits the how far out you can sheet the main downwind without chaffing against the spreaders.

Hunter Marine has roots in the 1800’s when Henry Luhrs, a German immigrant to New Jersey, USA began outfitting trading ships and owned his own ship, the Sophia R. Luhrs. His grandson also named Henry built and repaired boats. In 1965, Henry sold this company called Henry Luhrs Sea Skiffs. In 1969, Henry’s sons, Warren and John, purchased a New Jersey builder called Silverton Sea Skiffs and started building yachts. In 1973, they introduced the first Hunter sailboat, a 25-footer designed by Cherubini. Today, Hunter builds boats from 24 to 50 feet in an Alachua, Florida factory just north of Gainesville, Florida. The location is far inland about the center of the state of Florida with a small pond. The 42 Passage is not longer in production. They produced her from 1990-1999.

On Deck and Down Below
The cockpit has a high helm. The stern aft is perfect for swimming and getting on and off from at the dock. The Bergstrom and Ridder rig has the diamond cross stays, swept spreaders, and no backstay. One 42 Passage owner mentioned how his rig failed off North Carolina. The shroud wire had pulled out of the swage on the tang side. He believed that the lack of a backstay made the failure more catastrophic. Forward, the windlass is inside the chainlocker hatch, a clever way to maximize deck space. This is an exceptionally functional deck plan. Down below showcases the strengths of Hunter. The interior layout with centerline queen aft and a saloon you could yoga in is what every cruiser lusts for. here
