Description
The Hunter Impala was designed as an Offshore One Design class back in 1977. Despite its long heritage, Hunter Impalas remain ultra-competitive racing yachts and are an extremely popular choice for those who want to enjoy the best of cruiser-racing without breaking the bank.
"Parallel Universe" has been kept and raced in Poole by her current owner, who has equipped her with a solid sail inventory and modern navigation equipment. With the Impala Nationals being hosted by Parkstone Yacht Club this September, she could be an excellent opportunity for someone looking to get involved.
The inventory includes a Kevlar mainsail, a range of headsails and spinnakers, as well as a Raymarine Hybridtouch plotter, AIS transceiver, DSC VHF and autopilot.
For further information or to arrange a viewing, please call, email, or WhatsApp Peter Keats.
