MAHALO Hunt Yachts Surfhunter 25 2004

MAHALO is a beautiful and well-equipped 2004 (hull #44) Hunt Surfhunter 25 with 405 engine hours as of 8/26/25.  She has a Flag Blue hull, good cushions and canvas, and is in excellent mechanical condition.  New outdrive and new fuel tank new manifolds and risers installed last year. The Hunt Deep Vee hull of MAHALO offers the most comfortable and secure ride of any boat in her class and feels like a much bigger boat.  She is ready to entertain and cruise in style, run the family to the beach, and bring you home safely in challenging sea conditions.  

INTRODUCTION

The Hunt Yachts Surfhunter 25 is a culmination of decades of design and engineering by one of yachting’s most influential designers.  Everything from the legendary Hunt Deep V hull, timeless aesthetics, superb build quality and thoughtful ergonomics are combined in such a remarkable way that it’s hard to believe you are on only 25 ft. of boat.   This sporty, capable small yacht is quite likely the finest small vessel you will ever own and operate.

MAHALO is just about the perfect boat for enjoying the water in a multitude of ways.  From cruising around the Bay, fishing in Nantucket Sound, heading to dinner on the water with friends or towing the kids in a tube, the SURFHUNTER 25 excels in all areas.  The fabulously attractive lines of the pedigree Hunt Deep Vee hull form and will catch the eye of the experienced yachtsman and garner compliments in any harbor.

MAHALO is a low hour, well-maintained example of the venerable classic, that sports recently cleaned canvas, cushions and is in fine condition and ready for immediate use.
