Good Day! My wife and I are contemplating the
purchase of a mid- 1980s, 40'
Hunter sailboat. We have searched the
forums and the
internet and have found
references to the "Hunter 40" and the "Hunter 40 Legend" from this era. We have looked through the
documentation that accompanies the vessel that we are considering for
purchase; however, we can find no instance of the word "Legend" mentioned. The
current owner is unable to provide assistance in identification...
My question: Did
Hunter build two 40' boats during this era, one a "Legend" and the other a "Hunter 40," sans Legend?
I apologize if this question has already been addressed and we have somehow overlooked the thread(s)! I am a recovering powerboat guy; and, this will be our first sailboat. We intend to
refit and use the
boat to learn and explore the world of sailing; however, prior to purchase, we would like some clarification about the
boat. Thank you for your time.
