[1][2] The design was built by Hunter Marine in the United States between 1985 and 1987, but it is now out of production.

It has a fractional sloop rig, an aluminum mast and boom, a raked stem, a walk-through reverse transom, an internally-mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a laminated wooden tiller and a fixed wing keel.

[1][2] The boat is normally fitted with a small outboard motor for docking and maneuvering.

[4] The boat was delivered with many items as standard equipment, as part of the manufacturer's Cruise Pac.

These included a 110% genoa foresail, mast head wind indicator, stainless steel front and rear pulpits, lifelines and stanchions, a stainless steel re-boarding ladder, holly and teak wood interior, dinette table, portable toilet, a stainless steel galley sink, stove, ice chest, an outboard motor bracket, anchor and anchor line and even life jackets.
