The Hunter 44 Deck Salon is an innovative cruiser with a performance orientated hull drawn by noted designer and racer, Glenn Henderson, Hunter?s Chief Designer. Following on the heals of the tremendously successful Hunter 356, the 44 shares the same sailing attributes. Like the 356, the 44 carries the beam well aft, but the additional beam does not hinder performance or sea keeping ability, it actually enhances it. Wide windows and ports offer a real panorama and the creative layout allows for two full staterooms with two full heads with separate stall showers. Continuing to innovate and go more upscale, this Hunter will offer special amenities such as flat-screen television and Bose? Audio systems as standard. Galley appliances are stainless steel and surrounded by genuine Corian? countertops. Innerspring mattresses are standard in both spacious staterooms and there is even a special desk/office area in the master.

Pros
Spacious Interior: The deck salon design provides an elevated cabin with large windows, offering panoramic views and abundant natural light, creating an open and airy atmosphere below deck.

Good Storage: Plenty of storage compartments throughout the boat accommodate gear and provisions for longer trips.
Quality Construction: Built with durable materials and attention to detail, ensuring longevity and reliability.
Cons
Weight: The boat’s moderate displacement can result in slightly less responsiveness compared to lighter racing-oriented designs.
Deck Salon Height: While the elevated salon improves visibility and space, it also raises the boat’s profile, which can increase windage and affect performance in strong winds.
In-Mast Furling Trade-Offs: The convenience of in-mast furling can come at the cost of reduced sail area and potential challenges in sail shape optimization.
Maintenance: Larger windows and deck salon features may require more maintenance to keep seals watertight and interiors protected from the elements.
Cost: As a well-appointed cruiser, the Hunter 44 DS can be more expensive to purchase and outfit compared to simpler sailboats.
