The Marlow-Hunter 22 is an American trailerable sailboat that was designed by Glenn Henderson as daysailer and racer, first built in 2010. It is a development of the 2003 Hunter 216, but with the hull built of fiberglass, instead of thermo-plastic[1] [2] [3] [4]
The design was originally marketed by the manufacturer in 2010 as the Hunter 22, but was usually referred to as the Hunter 22-2 to differentiate it from the unrelated 1981 Hunter 22 design. When Marlow bought the company in 2012 it was officially renamed the Marlow-Hunter 22.[1] [4] [5]
The design is built by Hunter Marine in the United States. Production started in 2010 and the design remained in production through 2018.[1] [3] [4] [5]
The Marlow-Hunter 22 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass. It has a fractional sloop B&R rig with no backstay, a plumb stem, a rounded, open reverse transom, a transom-hung rudder controlled by a metal tiller and a lifting keel. It displaces 17000NaN0 and carries 5000NaN0 of lead ballast.[1] [4]
The design emphasizes cockpit space at the expense of lower deck accommodation. It does have a V-berth in the bow and room for a portable head. In 2018 the manufacturer's base price was US$29,990.[3]
The boat has a draft of 3.5feet with the keel extended and 1feet with it retracted, allowing beaching or ground transportation on a trailer.[1] [4]
The boat is normally fitted with a small outboard motor of up to 10hp for docking and maneuvering.[1] [4]
The design has a hull speed of 5.8kn.[4]
