New Model: Hunt 29 Harrier


The development of the Hunt 29 Harrier was driven by the success of the smaller 25 Harrier, with customers asking for the same style on a larger platform. Harrier 29's increased length takes advantage and use of the 29 Surfhunter hull, already well proven and widely admired for its capabilities, efficiency and performance. The Harrier 29 is intended to be more of a day boat, which is immediately obvious in the huge and inviting cockpit. An on-deck galley makes entertaining even more fun, with helm and companion seats, L-settee, engine box and cross-transom seating for ten, and with superb visibility for sightseeing made even more appealing by the soft, dry ride for which Hunt Yachts are so widely praised. The forward cabin includes V-berth, enclosed stand-up head and stowage, all this without loosing and affecting the sleek, classic profile. Available engine is for six options, all single from Volvo or Yanmar, and in petrol gas or diesel format from 315hp up to 435hp. Hunt Yachts also offer a wide variety of propulsion form stern drive, to the traditional shaft in vee drive configuration, and jet propulsion for the least in draft. Speeds are estimated at a max of 36 knots with cruising of 30 knots.

  1. If Hunt Yacht supports the new Harrier Customers like they support the 29 Surfhunter owners then Hunt yachts is doomed for failure.
