Hunter 376


We have recently returned from 3 consecutive years of winter cruising the Queensland coast.
Araluen is in prime condition and ready to go again.
This Hunter 376 was built in Florida USA and with a 1.52mt draft, is ideal for short handed sailing.
Many upgrades have been completed in the past few years. The 38hp Yanmar has only 1148 hours and the sails are in very good condition. The Raymarine instruments are less than 5 year old and new starter batteries were installed in June 2024.
Araluen has a 2.4mt custom built tender with a Honda outboard and can be carried on the foredeck or on the stern davits.
Araluen is currently moored at Mooloolaba. Please contact me to arrange an inspection.
