“Bluegrass” is a 2009 flag blue (awlgrip) Hunt Surhunter 25 center console inboard, if you know the C Raymond Hunt deep V, you will appreciate the amazing ride and good looks of this center console.
The Surfhunter 25 CC was an outgrowth of the famous Hunt-designed Surfhunter 25. Considered one of the best riding boats ever designed, the hull of the Surfhunter express was retained and a completely new deck was designed for the center console. Twin custom helm seats designed by Hunt design, comfortable seating forward and aft, as well as a dive door complete the deck package. Below full-standing headroom, electric head, powder coating on all outdoor metals, and of course, a Volvo 375 hp gas engine under the helm seats to keep the weight in the middle of the boat! As they say, “It’s all about the ride”!
The Surfhunter 25 Center Console is built on the legendary Deep-V hull design originated by renowned naval architects C. Raymond Hunt Associates. Numerous published sea trials attest to this boat's remarkable comfort, dry ride, easy seakeeping, and roughwater performance. She was specifically designed and engineered to handle the three different types of propulsion a feature no other center console boat currently offers. Her center console features 6 foot headroom with a shower, sink and head. Sport fishing features include a circulating baitwell, ample rod storage and optional, lockable fly rod storage. Like all Hunts, she can be personalized to make her uniquely yours.
