Hunter 280, 1996 sailboat for sale

My beautiful girl hazyblur needs a new home. I loved every minute with her, and I know you will too! Hazyblur is currently slipped on Lake Ray Hubbard in Sapphire Bay Marina. Trailer not included. (I never got one.)
  • Main & jib are about 5 years old but only light use. hazyblur comes with the spinnaker shown in pic.
  • Also includes a fully outfitted toolbox, air blower for summer, and marine grade heater for winter.
  • Some replacement/maintenance spare parts included. Dishes, silverware, etc, also included.
  • Why? I moved to FL where salt water makes inboard motors harder to maintain. Motivated to sell by end of April.
