The Hunter 30-2 is an American sailboat, that was built by Hunter Marine in the United States between 1988 and 1992.[1][2]

The boat was sold under the name Hunter 30, but because the company has sold four designs under that name, this design has become known as the 30-2 to differentiate it.[3]

Production[edit]

The design was built by Hunter Marine in the United States between 1988 and 1992.[1][2][4]

The Hunter 30-2 is a small recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass. It has a fractional sloop rig, a slightly raked stem, a walk-through reverse transom, an internally-mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a wheel and a fixed wing keel. It displaces 10,500 lb (4,763 kg) and carries 3,800 lb (1,724 kg) of ballast.[1][3][2]

The boat has a draft of 4.25 ft (1.30 m) with the standard wing keel.[1][2]

The boat is fitted with an inboard engine. The fuel tank holds 18 U.S. gallons (68 L; 15 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 37 U.S. gallons (140 L; 31 imp gal).[1][2]

The design was factory delivered with a shower and hot water tank, double sinks, oven and stove top, and an icebox, as standard equipment.[3]

The design has a PHRF racing average handicap of 183 with a high of 191 and low of 174. It has a hull speed of 6.81 kn (12.61 km/h).[2][5]
