2004 Hunter Aft Cockpit 44'

Designed by renowned naval architect Glenn Henderson and built by Hunter Marine in the USA, the 44 Aft Cockpit is a proven favorite among couples and families who want real sailing performance without giving up comfort. At 43'2" LOA with a 14'6" beam and 22,936 lbs displacement, she balances stability and speed beautifully. The fiberglass hull carries a fin keel with spade rudder and roughly 7,237 lbs of ballast for confident, predictable handling.

The B&R fractional rig flies 962 sq ft of sail, with in-mast furling main and furling genoa, genuinely easy single-handed sailing. She moves well in light air (5–10 knots), stands up to heavy conditions (owners report up to 40 knots), and tops out at a theoretical hull speed of 8.39 knots. Wide side decks, stainless grab rails, and a spacious cockpit with dual helm stations make her easy to move around. A large swim platform with ladder, hot/cold shower, and electric davits round out the stern.

Swing open the companionway doors and you're in the signature deck salon: panoramic windows, 6'6" headroom, and light everywhere. She sleeps up to 6 across two private cabins, a forward V-berth with en-suite head and shower, and an aft master stateroom with a king-sized bed, generous storage, and a private head with separate shower stall.

The salon features upholstered settees, a high-gloss expandable dinette (converts to a queen berth), and a proper navigation station. The U-shaped galley is genuinely chef-ready: three-burner propane stove and oven, double stainless sinks, separate refrigerator and freezer, microwave, and abundant storage. Teak-and-holly flooring, LED lighting, and reverse-cycle air conditioning/heat keep her comfortable in every season.
