Hunter 28.5
The Hunter 28.5 is an American sailboat that was designed by the Hunter Design Team and was built between 1985 and 1988. The Hunter 28.5 was developed into the Hunter 28 in 1989.
The Hunter 28.5 is a small recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It is a B&R rigged sloop with a split backstay, with a raked stem, a reverse transom, an internally-mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a wheel and a fixed fin keel or shoal draft wing keel. The fin keel version displaces 7,000 lb (3,175 kg) and carries 3,000 lb (1,361 kg) of ballast, while the wing keel version displaces 7,100 lb (3,221 kg) and carries 3,100 lb (1,406 kg) of ballast. The boat has a draft of 5.18 ft (1.58 m) with the standard keel and 4.00 ft (1.22 m) with the optional shoal draft wing keel.
The boat is fitted with an inboard diesel engine. The fuel tank holds 11 U.S. gallons (42 L; 9.2 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 27 U.S. gallons (100 L; 22 imp gal).
The factory-supplied standard equipment included a 110% genoa, two self-tailing two-speed jib sheet winches, double lifelines, a teak and holly cabin sole, dinette table, navigation table, stainless steel sink, hot and cold pressurized water system, a two-burner stove, an icebox, an anchor and life jackets. A spinnaker was a factory option.
The design has a hull speed of 6.53 kn (12.09 km/h). The wing keel version has a PHRF racing average handicap of 180 with a high of 192 and low of 171.

All About Your Hunter 28.5
Rig specifications.
These are the specifications provided by the designers, but even from the factory, these boats may not be identical. The reason for this is that the sail industry often contracts manufacturing to different sources in order to achieve economies of scale. What this means is – your Hunter 28.5 may be more unique than you initially thought.
It’s important to note that boats are also frequently customized, so if you suspect that work has been done on yours, it’s best to take your own measurements. When ordering a sail, we will advise you if using the manufacturer’s specifications is appropriate, or if we require you to complete our own measurement forms.

The Hunter 28.5 Sailboat
The lack of a backstay on this Hunter 28.5 sailboat tells us that it sports a B&R (Lars Bergström and Sven Ridder) rig.

Capsize Screening Formula: 2.2
read more about these all-revealing numbers...
Summary Analysis of Published Design Ratios for the Hunter 28.5
1. A Sail Area/Displacement Ratio of 17.5 suggests that the Hunter 28.5 will, in the right conditions, approach her maximum hull speed readily and satisfy the sailing performance expectations of most cruising sailors.
2. A Ballast/Displacement Ratio of 42.9 means that the Hunter 28.5 will stand up well to her canvas in a blow, helping her to power through the waves.
3. A Displacement/Length Ratio of 233, tells us the Hunter 28.5 is a moderate displacement cruiser, which means she'll carry all your cruising gear without it having a dramatic effect on her performance. Most of today's sailboats intended for offshore cruising fall into this displacement category.
4. Ted Brewer's Comfort Ratio of 18.8 suggests that crew comfort of a Hunter 28.5 in a seaway is similar to what you would associate with the motion of a coastal cruiser with moderate stability, which is not encouraging news for anyone prone to seasickness.
5. The Capsize Screening Formula (CSF) of 2.2 indicates that a Hunter 28.5 would not be the wisest choice of sailboat for ocean passage-making owing to the lower resistance to capsize in strong winds and heavy seas that is associated with similar sailboats with a CSF of 2.0 and above.

The boat has a hull speed of 7.4 kn (8.5 mph) and a PHRF rating of around 180, which means that it is moderately fast and competitive in its class.

The boat has plenty of natural light and ventilation from several opening ports and hatches. The cabin sole is made of teak and holly wood, which adds warmth and elegance to the interior.
Hull and Deck The Hunter 28.5 has a fiberglass hull and deck with wood trim. The hull shape is round-bottomed with a raked stem and a reverse transom. The keel is either a fixed fin keel or an optional shoal draft wing keel, both made of lead. The rudder is an internally-mounted spade-type rudder that is controlled by a wheel in the cockpit.
The deck is wide and flat, with non-skid surfaces for safety and ease of movement. The cockpit is large and comfortable, with high coamings, cushioned seats, and storage lockers. The helm station has an instrument pod, engine controls, compass, and cup holders.
The deck hardware includes two self-tailing two-speed jib sheet winches, two halyard winches on the cabin top, traveler on the arch above the companionway, genoa tracks and cars on the side decks, bow pulpit, stern rail, stanchions, lifelines, anchor roller, anchor locker, cleats, chocks, handrails, swim ladder, etc.

Capabilities of the Hunter 28.5

- Ask A Hunter Owner
I'd like to read some anecdotal "data" on the capabilities of the Hunter 28.5. While the knowledge and skill level of captain and crew do play a large part under what conditions you feel comfortable sailing your boat, I'm looking for a sense of just how far I could push the boat. How many years of sailing experience do you have? Do you single-hand or have a crew? What is the most extreme conditions you have sailed in (wind speed, wave height, etc,)? How were your sails set? Where do you draw the line? Thanks, Alec
Great questions!! Not much different than my 1987 Hunter 31. How many years of sailing experience do you have? 40 years chartering with 11 years sailboat ownership since 2009 Do you single-hand or have a crew? Both on my Hunter 31, 386 and now 46; they are easy to sail, tack and jib with little to no crew. What is the most extreme conditions you have sailed in (wind speed, wave height, etc,)? Generally do not sail in more than 25 knots wind speed and 2 foot waves How were your sails set? Reefed Where do you draw the line? 30 knots and 3 foot waves

Wow with those conditions you can sail anywhere!! Please note the heavier and longer the sailboat the more comfortable the sailing experience is. On a 39 foot full keel sailboat yesterday in the SF Bay with 25 knot winds and 1 - 2 foot waves.............very smooth.
With my 28.5, there have been a few occasions where the boat nose dived and I've taken water over the bow. The first time it was an "oh, wow", that was unexpected experience. Now I just expect it anytime the maritime forecast is for 2'-3' waves.
Yeah.....used to pitch pole our Hobie Cat in those conditions in the Long Island Sound but you still manage a 28.5 sailboat depending on your point of sail. Others in this forum can offer more advise on sailing a 28.5 Hunter in those conditions.
David in Sandusky
We have a ‘77 h27, so we are a bit smaller than you. We sail in the same area, How many years of sailing experience do you have? 55 Do you single-hand or have a crew? Mostly it’s the Admiral and I, but we’ve cruised with 4 aboard, and I have single handed. What is the most extreme conditions you have sailed in (wind speed, wave height, etc,)? 45 knots on Sandusky Bay. 6 footers in 25 knot winds crossing to Erieau. 45 knots on my Sunfish in Key West - that was a hoot! How were your sails set? Double reef in the main, and about half of our 110 genny. Where do you draw the line? I don’t plan to sail over 30 knots, but we felt safe in 45. 6 foot waves were fine on a reach. I wouldn’t plan a close hauled beat into 4 footers. We always plan layover days to avoid bad winds/weather. The key for us is the weather apps on our phones. Mostly it’s about avoiding the thunderstorm lines that are easy to see on radar. The only other idea is to get off the Lake by 4 PM on a hot summer day. Pop-up thunderstorms are possible near shore in those conditions. Lastly, your 28.5 is can probably take a whole lot more than you can! We are talking about our limits here, not the boat’s.

Keep your head - that is key. And reduce sail. I should add that our second reef in the main is a third reef. That is we had minimum mainsail up, so the heel was not excessive, and we could motor sail. In that case, back to our marina!

SBO Weather and Forecasting Forum Jim & John
Red Dog. Boats go from the Coast of Maine to the Caribbean. They just do it in good weather and without a dead line to get there. Given that you choose safe weather and cruise the coast where you can find safe harbor when the weather changes you'll be fine in your Hunter 28.5. Heck you might be fine in a dinghy with a 8 ft make shift sail. If that is the boat you got and it is paid for, I say go for it.. And as you say "Keep your Head". Just promise to send the occasional photo back to us here on the forum.
