Used Minstrel 23 Sailboats for Sale

The Hunter Minstrel 23 is a distinctive and capable small cruising yacht, renowned for its versatility and robust design, making it a popular choice for sailors seeking a "go anywhere" vessel. Often considered a charming and more affordable alternative to traditional day cruisers like the Cornish Shrimper, the Minstrel 23 is particularly valued for its ability to take advantage of shallow, drying moorings. This monohull sailboat, with a length overall of just under 23 feet (22.67 ft) and a waterline length of 19.09 feet, features a unique double-ended hull with a rudder mounted on the transom. She was designed by the prolific British naval architect David Thomas and built by Hunter Boats Ltd. in the UK between 1987 and 1993.
