Welcome aboard Wind D, a stunning and unique Hunter 46LE! The LE variant offers a more sleek, lower-profile exterior look than the standard Hunter 46' which can help improve both aerodynamics and enhance stability. This vessel features Hunter's strong, Kevlar re-enforced hull which was completely refinished in 2015 and since maintained with VC17 yearly thereafter. This 46LE is equipped with three (3) staterooms and two (2) heads, a large galley with lots of storage making this boat incredibly spacious and comfortable. Wind D has been impeccably maintained by experienced and knowledgeable owners for more than 11 years while adding multiple thoughtful and attractive upgrades under their ownership. Wind D features a uniquely constructed hardtop cockpit cover with removable Strataglass panels, offering maximum protection during less than optimal conditions. Additionally, the current owners have added Flexiteek synthetic decking as well as taller 30" lifelines with stainless steel tubing, enhancing this Hunter's already attractive appearance while maximizing safety. Versatile and well built, the Hunter 46LE is an exceptional off-shore boat for either the great lakes or extended ocean excursions!
