The Hunter 310 is a 31-foot fiberglass sloop designed for comfortable cruising and short-handed sailing. The cockpit features a molded steering pedestal with integrated table, providing both space and safety, while rack-and-pinion steering offers reliable control. An arch supports the mainsail traveler and clears the sheet from the working area. The fractional sail plan keeps handling straightforward without sacrificing performance, and the B&R deck-stepped rig is built for strength. An 18-horsepower Yanmar diesel inboard with bronze propeller provides auxiliary power.
Below deck accommodates up to six berths across three cabins: a forward double with hanging locker, a large thwart berth aft, and twin settees in the main salon. Headroom throughout is 6 feet 4 inches. A private head with door enclosure sits to port, while a substantial U-shaped galley to starboard includes a two-burner LPG stove and efficient stowage. A 50-gallon fresh water tank, hot water heater, microwave, and top-loading ice box support extended time aboard. Large hull ports and windows flood the interior with natural light.
The rigging includes sails from 2021—a full-battened mainsail with two reefs and lazy jacks, jib, and gennaker, all by Rolly Tasker—plus an older UK set. Self-tailing primary and secondary winches with roller-furling headsail make sail handling manageable. Equipment includes wheel steering with emergency tiller, Lewmar winches, Ritchie compass, AutoHelm knot meter and depth sounder, Uniden VHF radio, and Helix Humminbird GPS chartplotter. Shore power, dual 12-volt batteries, and full navigation and cabin lighting are installed.
Deck hardware includes bow and stern rails with double lifelines, a swim ladder with walk-through sugar scoop transom, bimini top, and cockpit cushions. A Mantus Delta anchor with 150 feet of rode and 20 feet of galvanized chain, plus a Danforth anchor with tackle, provide ground tackle. A steel cradle and complete complement of safety gear, fenders, lines, and dock equipment are included.
