The hull has a hard chine and a bow hollow. It has a cuddy space covered with a snap-fastener canvas cover for stowage. It has a fractional sloop rig, a plumb stem, an open reverse transom, a transom-hung swing-up [rudder]] controlled by a tiller with an extension and a folding centerboard keel. It displaces {{convert|836|lb|kg|0|abbr=on}} empty and can carry four people to a maximum of {{convert|936|lb|kg|0|abbr=on}}.[1][2][3] The boat has a draft of {{convert|52|in|cm|abbr=on}} with the centerboard extended and {{convert|6|in|cm|abbr=on}} with it retracted, allowing beaching or ground transportation on a trailer. The boat has no provisions for mounting a motor.[1] Factory standard equipment includes a jib and a loose-footed mainsail. Factory options include a gennaker.[1][2] Operational historyWriting for Sailing magazine in July 2011, famed yacht designer Robert Perry concluded at the 18, "I think this would be an ideal boat to use to teach kids how to sail. It has the look of a modern sport boat with its plumb stem and open transom. With the spinnaker option you should be able to get good performance out of the boat and kids can learn the full range of basic sailing skills in a boat that won't overpower them."[2] In a review for Sail magazine also in July 2011, writer Charles Doane sailed the boat with Steve Pettengill, "who serves as Hunter’s unofficial Director of Destructive Testing". They sailed the boat in winds of over {{convert|20|kn|km/h|0|abbr=on}} with full sail and even the gennaker. Doane noted, "Though over-canvassed, the boat handled very well. Steering was precise, and we had no trouble keeping upright by playing the main when sailing on the wind. The controls are simple, effective and easy to handle. The high boom makes it unnecessary to duck when tacking, and a substantial centerline toerail and comfortably curved cockpit coaming make it easy to push your body out quickly to windward when heeling. The only thing lacking is a centerline hiking strap to hook your feet under, but this would be easy to retrofit." After the sail he concluded, "I feel I can recommend this boat highly. Handled by sane people, it would be lots of fun to just knock around in. Obviously, it’s a blast to sail in the heavy stuff as well."[3] See also
