Hunt Yachts Inc. was formed in 1998 to broaden the base from custom designing to include production, brokerage and new boat sales.For eight years the boatbuilding took place in Dartmouth, MA at the Concordia Company which was founded by Ray Hunt and Waldo Howland in 1937 and was the home of the world famous Concordia yawl. With the popularity of the Surfhunter 25 and 29 the need for larger space saw the factory move to Portsmouth RI in the summer of 2006. This larger facility enabled the company to not only expand its product line but also to offer a full service and storage capability to its owners.

36' Hunt Yachts Harrier 36
2003
US$ 405,000
'GODSPEED' is the name given to this stunning pedigree from Hunt Yachts. Underway or at rest, she is absolutely lovely from any angle, a feat not easily accomplished on any boat. From the design boards of C. Raymond Hunt Assoc. and built by Hunt Yachts, 'GODSPEED' represents the epitome of fifty plus years of design expertise, and demonstrates the sheer beauty, capability and inherent pride, safety and confidence that comes with such pedigree and experience.
The Hunt Deep V hull form is world renowned for their stellar all weather performance, and is used for numerous and notable commercial, military and large custom and production projects alike. The firm of C. Raymond Hunt Assoc. is arguably the leading architect of planing hulls, and the Hunt Harrier 36 from Hunt Yachts has directly benefited from this unmatched knowledge and expertise. Not only is 'GODSPEED' an exceptionally fun boat to drive, delivering a proven, comfortable and secure ride, she is also notably dry and efficient. 'GODSPEED' is capable of a broad range of planing speeds from as low as 13 kts., which speaks volumes about the versatility and efficient rough water capability of the boat, which are quite frankly unmatched in this size and type of yacht.
Having said all that about the design and attributes of the hull, which is and should be undoubtedly important, it is simply the foundation on which to carry the pure and elegant sheer line of the Harrier 36. Within the timeless sheer of 'GODSPEED' is perhaps the greatest entertaining 36 footer built. Much of boating is about having fun. Fun with your friends and family aboard a boat you can be proud to call your Hunt. Your Hunt Yacht that always leaves your family and guests smiling, and at the same time instills a level of comfort and confidence that only a Hunt can deliver.
This is a yacht of immense versatility, very well suited for day trips, entertaining and even wake boarding and water skiing. Short cruises around the corner or up the coast are easily taken. Extended runs to more remote cruising destinations like Maine and the Bahamas are confidently and quickly undertaken. The Harrier 36 expertly handles it all.
Sounds like a tall order I know.
The Hunt Harrier 36 is a special boat for certain. 'GODSPEED' is one of the more special still. She is being offered for sale by her extremely knowledgeable owner who has thoroughly and enthusiastically enjoyed his time aboard, and has spared no expense in the upkeep of the yacht.
'GODSPEED' is 'dialed in' as they say, in fabulous condition throughout, and truly must be seen to be fully appreciated.
