707

707

Formerly voted 'yacht of the year' the Hunter 707 is raced with a maximum of five crew, and carries a conventional spinnaker. The 707 fleets healthy mix of male, female, young and old are famously sociable and welcoming. The class optimise every opportunity to socialise at all events in the racing calendar, and it doesn't stop there, as there are monthly regular gatherings in London, Hampshire and Yorkshire.
