Used Sailboat Hunter 49

Introducing the elegant 2008 Hunter 49, a stunning cruiser that promises both comfort and performance on the water. With an impressive overall length of 15.22 meters, this monohull features a robust fiberglass hull, designed for stability and durability. Powered by a reliable Yanmar diesel engine, it delivers 110hp, ensuring smooth sailing for your adventures. With a seating capacity for eight, the Hunter 49 is perfect for entertaining friends and family. This vessel is equipped with a direct drive system, enhancing maneuverability and responsiveness. 

Ventana is a proven bluewater cruiser, having successfully completed a full circumnavigation in March 2024. Designed and maintained with long-range self-sufficiency in mind, this two-owner vessel has been meticulously updated and is now offered for sale in turnkey condition — ready to sail away.

With a spacious 3-cabin / 2-head layout, she offers exceptional comfort for liveaboard life or extended cruising. Her shoal draft wing keel allows access to shallow anchorages without compromising offshore performance, making her ideal for both Med and ocean passagemaking.

Equipped with 2023 Rolly Tasker sails, new Raymarine electronics, and a full suite of modern navigation and communication systems — including Starlink internet — Ventana is ready for today’s connected adventurers. Her energy independence is guaranteed by 1000W solar, a wind generator, and 800Ah of lithium-ion batteries, all supporting critical onboard systems such as the 100 l/h watermaker and full domestic comforts.

The boat has been thoroughly maintained throughout her global voyage and is now located in Barcelona. Start your summer cruising the Med in style and comfort — and cross to the Caribbean this winter with confidence.

Last time out of the water for antifouling and anodes replacement in September 2024. 

The Hunter 49 Ventana features a spacious and functional 3-cabin, 2-head layout, ideal for liveaboard comfort and extended bluewater cruising. The forward owner's cabin includes a centerline super-queen berth, built-in seating, ample lockers, and a private ensuite with separate shower compartment.

Two aft cabins—one with a double berth (starboard) and one with a queen (port)—share a second head with dual access, providing versatility and privacy for guests.

The large central saloon is bright and well-ventilated, with a custom teak dining table seating up to 8 guests. New cushions (2023) and well-designed storage solutions make it perfect for long stays aboard.

The galley is fully equipped for self-sufficiency, while onboard climate is regulated by three air conditioning units and a hot water system.

With generous tankage, comfortable sleeping for 6, and a warm, practical layout, Ventana is the ideal cruiser for long-distance adventures or luxury liveaboard life.
