    About the Hunter 356 Legend

    Launched in the early 2000s, this model is part of Hunter's ?Legend? range, known for its perfect balance between performance and habitability. The Hunter 356s are renowned for their stable and seaworthy handling, even in heavy weather, and their comfort onboard. Several years of production saw this model evolve, with improvements in layout and equipment.

    This boat is perfectly suited for owners looking for a reliable sailboat, with minimal maintenance, and capable of sailing in the Mediterranean as well as the Atlantic.

    Tips before purchasing

    • Check the hull condition (presence of osmosis, cracked gelcoat) and the rigging (wear on rigging, condition of the mainsail).
    • Inspect the electrical system (batteries, electrical panel) and the engine system (filters, injectors, condition of hoses).
    • Examine the interior layout (moisture, mold, wear on surfaces).
    • Take a sea trial to test the stability, responsiveness upwind, and behavior offshore.
    • Compare with other competing models (e.g., Beneteau Oceanis 351, Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 350) to ensure the best value for money.
