Known for delivering high-quality cruising sailboats, Hunter crafted the 356 with a focus on comfort, practicality, and ease of handling, making it perfect for family outings and extended port-to-port cruising.

This well-maintained sailboat features heat and air conditioning to keep you comfortable year-round, and a well-equipped galley with refrigeration, ensuring supplies stay fresh during your voyages.
