Description

The 1996 Hunter Pilot 27 is a highly regarded British-built cruiser, renowned for her excellent sailing performance, shallow draft versatility, and practical cruising layout. Designed by David Thomas and produced by Hunter Boats, she offers the perfect balance between easy handling and capable offshore manners, making her equally suited to coastal cruising, estuary sailing, and inland waterways. With her distinctive twin-bilge keel configuration, the Pilot 27 can take the ground upright and access shallow anchorages with ease — a major advantage for UK cruising.
