About This Yacht
The Hunter 430 features Hunter's distinctive B&R rig, which eliminates the traditional backstay and uses swept spreaders for support. This design allows for a larger mainsail and simplified sail handling, making the boat manageable for a couple or short-handed crew.
The boat has a center cockpit layout, providing:
- Excellent visibility underway
- Increased safety in rough conditions
- A spacious aft owner's stateroom with a private head
- Good separation between living and sleeping
