Just Peachy is the cleanest, best maintained and loved example of a Hunter Legend 35.5 you'll find anywhere. Previously from the St. John River area of Florida, this 1989 Hunter Legend 35.5 shows like a boat half her age and like one that has only been in freshwater. The current owners have only used this yacht for 6 months each year, and store sails, mainsail cover & Bimini off the boat during the warmer months, and keep her dry and mold-free by using a high-capacity de-humidifier.
This 3/4 Sloop Rig, with the Hood Roller Furler system cleverly recessed below the foredeck and accessible via the Chain Locker, is equipped with updated 150% Genoa, 110% Jib, Mainsail with cover and integrated Dutchman sail-flaking system, Dodger with Sunbrella Cover to protect the vinyl windshield, Sunbrella Bimini with full-enclosure & a covered vinyl Mainsail-viewing window, and 3-piece Sunbrella deck cover to protect windows and the main deck when the boat is not being used. All lines and controls are led aft to sheet stoppers and pairs of Barient 24 ST Primary Winches and Barient 17 ST halyard and control winches make sail-handling and controls easy and convenient from the comfort of the cockpit. Her 4' 6" shallow draft is perfect for cruising in Florida or the Bahamas.
Step below into the spacious interior and the upgraded fabrics, soft-goods, impeccably varnished teak cabinetry & teak flooring will make you believe you are on much newer yacht; impeccably decorated and thoughtfully equipped for coastal cruising. With a large private V-Berth, private aft cabin with athwartship double berth, a huge salon with long settees on each side and large varnished teak dining table, plus a spacious head with vanity, sink, separate shower area, and manual Jabsco toilet, Just Peachy has comfortable accommodations for a crew of 6. This Hunter 35.5 Legend Sloop has recently upgraded 11,000 BTU Reverse Cycle Webasto Air Conditioning, Adler-Barbour dual top loading 12V Refrigeration & Freezer, plus a 110V Refrigerator, SS CNG 2-burner Gimballed Stove with Oven, and large dual SS sinks, Microwave Oven, plus a 2000W Inverter and a 2000kW gas generator which fits nicely on the sugar-scooped swim platform and provides plenty of power to run all appliances and A/C system while anchored in your favorite tropical harbor.
The clean and well-maintained Yanmar 3GM30F fresh-water cooled 24hp diesel engine has 1,555 hours and is conveniently located under the companionway stairs with side access panels.
