The Hunter 380 is an American sailboat that was designed by the Hunter Design Team as a cruiser and first built in 1999.[1][2][3][4]

The Hunter 380 shares a common hull with the Hunter 386 and the Hunter 376.[1][4]

Production

The design was built by Hunter Marine in the United States between 1999 and 2001, but it is now out of production.[1][2][4][5]

Design

The Hunter 380 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass. It has a fractional sloop B&R rig, a fiberglass mainsheet traveler arch, a raked stem, a walk-through reverse transom, an internally mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a wheel and a fixed wing keel or fin keel. It displaces 16,000 lb (7,257 kg) and carries 5,900 lb (2,676 kg) of ballast.[1][4]

The boat has a draft of 5.00 ft (1.52 m) with the standard wing keel and 6.50 ft (1.98 m) with the optional deep draft fin keel.[1][4]

The boat is fitted with a Japanese Yanmar 3JH2E diesel engine of 36 hp (27 kW). The fuel tank holds 30 U.S. gallons (110 L; 25 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 75 U.S. gallons (280 L; 62 imp gal). The cabin headroom is 78 in (198 cm).[1][3]

The design has a PHRF racing average handicap of 105 with a high of 114 and low of 96. It has a hull speed of 7.58 kn (14.04 km/h).[4][6]
