What the experts say about the Hunter 49:
"As with all Hunters, there's never a shortage of sheer accommodation space. The 49 is a beamy boat (14 feet, 9 inches), but doesn't appear super-beamy. The airy saloon will seat eight for dinner. It has two excellent seaberths and 6-foot, 9-inch headroom. Numerous fixed ports let in lots of light. [...] the boat was condo-comfortable, but also handled the passage without trouble." - Sail Magazine review
"Sitting to leeward on a seat designed to let the helmsman lean back against the lifelines and pushpit with feet inboard and a knee on either side of the wheel, I found the boat a pleasure to sail.[...] Heck of a lot of boat for the buck." - Cruising World Review
