Production model

Hunter 260

Built by Hunter

A 26 ft 3 in fractional sloop designed by Rob Mazza/Hunter Design Team, built from 1997 to 2005. She carries 8 ft 11 in beam, 6 ft draft and 5,000 lb displacement. Hull form is keel and centerboard.

Hunter built in Alachua, Florida and aimed at volume production cruising boats with generous accommodation for the length. They are plentiful and affordable on the used market, and the brand continued as Marlow-Hunter after 2012. The figures below come from owners who logged work on this boat here.
