Haines Hunter 233 Formula Classic fresh water cooled twin 165 inboard
Owned and loved by one family. Complete restoration in 2020 - Trade a boat featured details over 2 magazines - 10 plus pages. Originally described as "The Ferrari of the Seas". Better in reality in our experienced opinion.
This neo-classic and uniquely original Haines Hunter-built Formula offers a soft-riding hull that is ideal for inshore and offshore cruising. A collector's item in this condition, stored out of the water for 40+ years and set up for forklift/drystack accommodations with documented detailed restoration/improvements in recent years, this is a rare opportunity to acquire one of the greatest monohull designs of all time. The cockpit is spacious and comfortable, and the cuddy cabin offers overnighting opportunities. The helm is well-equipped and a delight to use.
