The Hunter design team's Hunter 310 goal was to combine maximum livability with rewarding short-handed performance with privacy another priority. Above deck the boat is very comfortable with a circular cockpit. The molded in steering pedestal with table creates more cockpit space and safety. The steering is rack and pinion which is considered stronger than the conventional cables and quadrant arrangement. The arch clears the mainsheet out of the cockpit and contains the traveler controls. Hunter likes to keep the fun in sailing without complexity. The B&R deck-stepped rig, has a fractional sail plan for ease of sail handling and yet accommodating larger roaches in full-battened mainsails and is considered one of the strongest rigs out there. Down below there are double berths fore and aft with a large, comfortable cabin in between. The headroom is 6'4". Engine access is excellent. The forward berth has a hanging locker. Aft of that in the main salon, there are port and starboard settees. In the aft cabin there is a large thwart berth generous for two. There's storage beneath all berths. With the forward attitude of the main salon, that leaves room for a private head with solid door enclosure to port and a large U-Shaped galley to starboard. Stowage for dishware is useful and efficient. Light from the windows and hull ports make the interior exceptionally bright. The comforts that make a boat a home have been attended to.
