Remarks:
The Hunter Horizon 232 has a very well appointed interior with L-shaped galley, one of the best heads compartments in a boat of her size, and ample accommodation space for family cruising.
This is a well presented example that is easily handled, with her self-tacking jib on roller reefing system enabling easy single handed sailing.
She was purchased by the current own some 15 years ago and is now for sale owing to the purchase of a larger yacht!
