2006 Hunter 36

PRELIMINARY INFORMATION SUBJECT TO OWNER'S APPROVAL

Borrowing heavily from the ideas of Hunter owners, dealers and prospective customers, the popular 36 represents the end collaboration of enthusiast feedback, brought to life by the hands and minds of Hunter engineers. The extra wide beam spans nearly the entire length of the boat to maximize both topside and interior accommodations. A large sail locker easily stores gear, while the generously proportioned cockpit features a Lewmar® steering system, fold-up tables and plenty of room for relaxation.

Whether you are ready to set sail for the islands or just around the buoys, the Hunter 36 can really make a difference. Starting with the tall, fractional rig, which is a direct descendant of the B&R rig that powered Hunter's Child to a second place finish in the recent BOC, Hunter has engineered the mast to carry less weight aloft with smaller sections. This is accomplished by utilizing swept-back spreaders and reverse diagonals as well as mast support struts. This combination provides superior strength without a backstay and increases the stability at the same time. Hunter has eased the effort in sail handling and allowed for real versatility for all wind and sea conditions. Your benefit: better performance with less effort.

The deck layout reflects the innovation that accompanies the rig. An integrated arch protects the cockpit from snapping main sheets and blistering sun with the optional bimini. This arch keeps the cockpit clear and open. A custom console stands ready with the standard VHF and instruments. Single lever control and fold down table along with engine instrumentation complete the command station. The swim platform and walk through transom complete with shower and folding ladder are perfect for water sports or for boarding the tender. Storage is everywhere you look and the non-skid is absolutely first-rate.

Comfort is truly important aboard whether for a week or a year, so Hunter has created an interior that not only looks good, but works for you as well. Two private, large staterooms along with an enormous head with shower and a salon that can seat eight plus a gourmet galley will keep all the crew happy.

If you're looking for major comfort in a mid-size package and performance is important, then the Hunter 36 could be your answer. Our offering, "WHAT A HOOT", is a well cared for example of the Hunter 36 and is well worthy of your inspection.

Forward stateroom: The forward stateroom has an 80” x 78” berth, with storage under the berth forward and double door storage beneath it. There are opposing cedar lined lockers on either side aft of the bunk, both with fiddled shelves above that run forward above the berth. The starboard locker has shelving and the port side is hanging storage.  Headroom in this space is 6’. There is an overhead Lewmar hatch, two overhead lights and two reading lights in this space.

Saloon: The saloon space in the Hunter 36 is open, bright and inviting. On starboard is a large U-shaped dinette that will easily seat four. The table can be lowered to create an 80” x 51” berth.  On port is a straight settee that is 81”x 28”, so it can also serve as a single berth.  The entire area beneath and behind the seat backs of both settees are ample storage compartments.  Above and behind both seating areas are fiddled shelves and a hullside port light, with lockers on either side of the port lights.  Above the lockers, fiddled shelves run the length of the saloon, nav and galley areas along the hullsides.  Lighting and ventilation provided by four fixed house port lights, two hull side fixed port lights, two overhead fixed lights with Textilene covers, an opening port above the galley and an overhead hatch.  Additionally, there are two reading lights and four overhead lights. 

Nav station: The nav station is located on port and aft facing, utilizing the settee seat.  The chart table is designed to accommodate a large chart book and has a good amount of storage inside. There are two large oval cubbies in the top back of the lid and a large locker below the table with shelves.  Electrical panels and electronics are above the table top with fiddled shelf space above that.  Headroom is 6’3”.

Galley: The L-shaped galley is located at the base of the companionway on starboard.  The Corian counters have high sculpted fiddles which make excellent hand-holds while underway.  There is an upright refrigerator beneath the counter toward centerline.  The double sinks are on the diagonal counter to the right of that.  There is a large locker beneath the sinks and a dry storage bin and trash bin with Corian lids behind them. To the right of the sink is the stove.  There is a shelf and drop-down door locker storage beneath it and a microwave above it.  Moving forward along the hullsides are three drawers (one is a cutlery organizer) and a double glass panel locker with dish rack storage forward of that.  Headroom is 6’3”.

Head: The head is located on port at the base of the companionway. Looking in, the sink is directly in front of you and has a medicine cabinet above it and a double-door locker beneath.  To the left is the shower and head area, with a wet locker at the aft end of the space.  Lighting and ventilation provided by two opening ports and two overhead lights. Headroom is 6’1” in the shower and 6’2” in the sink area.

Master stateroom: The master stateroom is entered on starboard behind the galley.  Just inside the cabin entry is a cedar-lined hanging locker with a fiddled shelf. The athwartship queen size berth is 80” x 60” and has a padded headboard.  There is storage behind the headboard and a small shelf that runs from the headboard area across to the hull, with a fixed hullside light above the shelf. There is a small fiddled nightstand surface at the head of the bed along the transom with storage beneath it and another night stand surface with cubby storage at the forward end.  A fiddled counterspace runs the length of the berth along the stern with three teak storage bins.  Additionally, above the engine compartment is another storage locker with a drop-front door. Below the berth is tankage as well as a generous amount of storage.  Lighting and ventilation are provided by two reading lights, two overhead lights, one overhead cockpit hatch and an opening port. Headroom is 6’3”.
