2020 Hunt Yachts Surfhunter 32

The 2020 Hunt Yachts Surfhunter 32 is a testament to classic New England styling and exceptional craftsmanship. Renowned for its premium build quality and sea-keeping abilities, this vessel is perfect for discerning buyers who appreciate a blend of performance and elegance. With a length overall of 32 feet and a beam of 10 feet, it offers a sleek profile and a deep-V hull that ensures a smooth and stable ride, even in choppy conditions. Powered by gas engines, it achieves a cruise speed of 30 knots and can reach a maximum speed of 45 knots, making it ideal for coastal cruising and weekend getaways. The Surfhunter 32 features a well-appointed cabin with one head, offering comfort for overnight stays. While the interior space is somewhat limited due to the narrow beam, the high-quality fit and finish make up for it. Priced at USD 445,000, this yacht is located in Oxford, Maryland, and is an excellent choice for experienced boaters who value superior handling and classic design. Potential buyers should consider the maintenance needs, particularly the exterior woodwork varnish and electrical systems, but the vessel's strong resale value and robust construction make it a worthwhile investment.

BONHEUR is an outstanding late-model member of the highly regarded class of Surfhunter 32 Express Cruisers designed by Ray Hunt Design and built by Hunt Yachts in Rhode Island. The boat features a pair of desirable and sought-after Mercury Verado V-8 outboard motors paired with a state-of-the-art Mercury joystick control with “Skyhook” for GPS station keeping. With only 120 hours as of September 2025, the motors have just been professionally serviced with compression tests performed to confirm top operating condition. The additional speed available with the outboards is exhilarating and ensures plenty of power is available when bopping around on day trips with a gaggle of family and friends aboard. Lift-kept in season and indoor-stored in the off-season and it shows! Tastefully appointed and color coordinated with upgraded fabrics and features throughout, BONHEUR is a “looker” and a performer with that classic Hunt appeal; never trendy, endurably in style since conceived to tackle the rough waters of Buzzards Bay over sixty-five years ago. Notable options include: custom lower profile helm console; Awlgrip painted hull; additional companion XR pedestal chairs; upgraded motors; Express Hardtop; synthetic ‘teak’ decks with off-white seams; Sunbrella cockpit L-settee cushions; varnished teak toe rail with pop-up chalks - just to name a few of the thoughtful optional touches. While most of us are looking to avoid rough water these days, the Surfhunter is famous for dancing right through it with a dry ride that must be experienced to be believed. With plenty of seating both in the cockpit and under the hardtop, there is room for three couples to ride in comfort while it is not uncommon at all to see a mix of ten aboard for a day. The unusually large ensuite head with shower is perfect for the primarily day-use the boat is designed for while the galley and generous Vee-berth with filler below are perfect for a couple to overnight with. Reluctantly, but seriously offered for sale and realistically priced. A careful inspection of BONHEUR will not disappoint.

The Hunt Yachts Surfhunter 32 is a standout in the world of classic motor yachts, offering a blend of elegance and performance. The build quality is exceptional, with a solid fiberglass hull and meticulous attention to detail. This vessel is particularly praised for its sea-keeping abilities, thanks to the deep-V hull design that ensures a smooth ride even in challenging conditions. While the interior space is limited, the layout is functional, with a comfortable cabin and head. The Surfhunter 32 is competitively priced for its class, maintaining strong resale value due to its reputation for quality. For a marine surveyor, attention would be paid to the condition of the exterior woodwork and electrical systems, common areas of concern for this model. This yacht is ideal for experienced boaters who appreciate classic design and superior handling, but those seeking more interior space or lower initial costs might consider alternatives.
