Surfhunter 29, A Step Beyond Greatness
The Surfhunter 29 can be considered an augmentation of an already proven winner, the Surfhunter 25. In a literal sense, the extra four feet give the 29 added space in both the cockpit, as well as below deck. Beyond that, though, the 29 maintains the same profile as its smaller predecessor, cruising smoothly, regardless of conditions. Relying on the proven Hunt design, the Surhunter 29 is another in its deep line of New England deep V cruisers.

Hunt Marine Does it Again!
Successful Comebacks - Take Two
In early Summer 2003, Hunt Yachts released the Surfhunter
29. After all of the success that surrounded the Surfhunter 25,
the larger version of Hunt’s classic deep-v hull design had already sold
its first three vessels, even though the line has yet to splash into the
water. Like her sister, the Surfhunter 29 was designed for the choppy
waters of New England, and cuts
through the water gracefully.
The
Surfhunter 29 remains a fun and practical boat for day use with an interior
that places overnights and weekends within easy reach. She has the same
superb Hunt deep-V performance that has made her little sister one of
the venerable boats in the rough waters of Southern New England. In the
29, the extra four feet of length is split between the cockpit and the
interior. With that length and an additional foot and a half in the beam,
there are more generous dimensions below and more move-around space on
deck. Plus, the scaled up hull and cabin give additional, desired inches
of headroom without impacting on the sleek Surfhunter profile and instantly
recognizable “Hunt-style”.
Four
Extra Feet Go a Long Way
The additional four
feet are divided between the cockpit and the interior, creating more deck
space, as well as added headroom down below.
Surfhunter 29’s removable
seating makes for ample fishing space, and creates a path to the transom
and the vessel's two fishwells. But if fishing is not your choice, leave
the seats in and enjoy the ride from the stern bench or the optional L-settee
amidships.
Her large swept-back
windshield and side windows were designed to deflect the persistent ocean
wind and spray, so even the passengers sitting aft will remain dry at
any speed.

The interior is outfitted with a galley that includes a stainless sink,
refrigerator, and a single-burner butane stove. That, and a full
bathroom, will insure that nothing keeps you from wanting to stay the
weekend.
The V-berth table
transforms the space into a saloon cabin that has a hanging locker, shelves,
and a forepeak locker. The vessel’s Lewmar opening comes with a screened
deck hatch and portlights.
Power
to Spare
Standard power is a single Volvo Penta 5.7 SXI/XPD
320 HP Ocean Series gas engine with thru-hub exhaust and Ocean Series
Composite Outdrive. Hunt Anticipates 40 MPH speed, and a cruising range
of 250 nm with standard 150 gallon fuel tank. Other power choices are
offered, including diesel I/O, diesel inboard, and the option of water
jet
Despite all the comforts
that the Surfhunter 29 provides, Hunt Yachts, as always, offers customers
a range of options in order to guarantee customer satisfaction.
