Harrier 36: Opulent and Sophisticated.
Yes, but ... Wow, Can She Move!
Winner of the 2003 National Marine
Manufacturers Association Award for inboard powerboats, the newest Hunt
yacht is the most sumptuous of the bunch. Sumptuous in a masculine
way, that is. Built to be
ultra-customizable, it is also a great performance boat. Twin 370
horsepower engines are standard, and an upgrade to twin 440's is an option,
giving the Harrier 40 knot-plus speed.
Reaping All the Benefits
Green-tinted SOLEX glass is used on
the large, swept windshield to enhance the look of this sportsman's passagemaker. As with the 33 and 36 Express, you have the choice of a soft
top, sedan, or hardtop. And like the 33 and the 36, the Harrier is
built for performance without sacrificing comfort. One example is is
the hull shape, designed to protect the cockpit from spray when cruising at
high speed.
Utilizing the same hull dimensions as
the 36' Express, the Harrier incorporates the latest in material by using
composites and carbon fibers to increase strength and durability while
keeping weight down.
Below deck, Hunt sacrificed the dinette
in order to make room for a queen-sized berth. Despite eliminating the
v berth in favor of a regular bed layout, space is used quite efficiently,
with plenty of closet and drawer space, and extra seating room.
As an express cruiser, passengers will
be spending most of their time on deck, and Hunt has designed it
accordingly. There is room enough for a large L-shaped settee with
dining table as well as a deck galley and bar, eliminating the need for a
dinette below deck.
