Description
The 2017 Hunt Surfhunter 29, Beyond the Sea, blends timeless Downeast styling with modern performance and comfort. Purchased new by her current owners, she was outfitted with nearly every available option and personally overseen during her build in Portsmouth, RI. After delivery, she was kept in Connecticut until 2021, when the owners relocated her to Hilton Head Island, SC. Since then, she has been under the care of a professional yacht manager, ensuring she has been meticulously maintained.
Powered by a Volvo Penta D6 370 HP diesel with low hours, Beyond the Sea offers a confident, efficient ride with a fast cruise around 30 knots and a top speed of 36 knots.
Her express hardtop with stainless steel supports, teak accents, and spacious cockpit create an inviting space for entertaining, day cruising, or even light fishing. Below, the beautifully finished interior features custom cherry joinery, Corian countertops, a well-equipped galley, enclosed head with shower, and a convertible V-berth—making overnight stays comfortable and stylish.
Fully equipped with twin Garmin multifunction displays, radar, autopilot, bow and stern thrusters, Fusion audio, and JL speakers, she is as capable as she is elegant. With legendary Hunt handling and premium craftsmanship throughout, Beyond the Sea is an ideal choice for an owner seeking a versatile express cruiser equally suited to day trips or extended weekends away.
