Accommodation plan from Hunter's brochure
|
Under the cockpit is a really large double berth, designed to
be slept in athwartships as in virtually all current American
Hunter designs
|
|
|
The galley is simply a moulded sink unit, with shelf space for
a camping gas canister type cooker, although a small fixed two-burner
cooker could be fitted if required
|
|
A removable oval glass fibre table
on a stainless steel bracket and leg fits either in the saloon or
in the cockpit.
Under the port saloon settee is a removable insulated
coolbox
|
|
|
The main hatch slides in a groove,
as normal, but when pushed fully forward can also be hinged upwards
to increase saloon headroom when not sailing. A narrow canvas 'pop-top'
is then added to form an extension to the cabin space at anchor
or moored - see owners photo below.
As with all Hunters, there is a lot of clever and
practical detail design, including the stern seats with cupholders! |
|
The backstay-less Bergstrom rig has two stainless steel bar
lower stays, in addition to S/S wire rigging. These give useful
handholds when moving forward on deck.
The Bergstrom rig is a feature of all current US Hunters, and
provides a big efficient main as the power sail, and a relatively
small and easy to handle headsail
|

|
The centreboard is a GRP moulding,
with just enough ballast moulded in to let it drop. The main ballast
is the 1,200 water ballast carried in the tanks under the saloon
sole - which is drained for trailing. The trailer (see below) has
a set of steps built on to allow access over the bow |
The Legend 240 is a really well designed little trailer-sailer,
with remarkably spacious accommodation, although it is clearly conceived
as a weekender rather than a longer term cruiser. She can either
be trailer-sailed, or use cheap drying moorings.
