If you are ready to sail, she's ready to go!
Designed and Built by Hunter Marine, USA, this popular Hunter model blends a modern rig and hull design with an enormous interior. You will not find a larger interior on any production-built yacht under 30 feet.
In fact, the whole vessel tricks you into believing you have a much larger yacht from the sugar scoop open transom with swim platform, to the stainless steel cockpit targa (arch) with bimini and mainsheet mount; cockpit table, quarter seats and wheel steering; separate private head; nav table, chart plotter and autopilot; and even a microwave.
Dragonfly is the shallow draft version Hunter 290 with a wing keel, drawing only 3' 10". Perfect for exploring the Chesapeake Bay and all of the surrounding waterways without compromising stability.
Other inclusions to complete the Dragonfly package:
Permanent stainless steel targa (and when equipped with a Bimini it is HUGE!)
18hp Yanmar 2GM20F diesel engine
Great electronics package including chart plotter, autopilot, VHF radio, wind/depth/speed with an upgraded transducer (water temp)
Lovely teak interior with all upholstery in very good condition
Hot and cold water, 40 gallon fresh water supply, large separate head (with holding tank) and hot shower.
This is a serious pocket cruiser that thinks she?s a 40 footer! Great to handle, she has the flexibility to go where you want, when you want. Dragonfly will suit many cruising couples or families - she offers a lot in this price range.
