The Hunter 260 is a quintessential example of the modern "trailer-sailer," a vessel designed to bridge the gap between a portable daysailer and a legitimate coastal cruiser. Launched in late 1997 as an evolution of the earlier Hunter 26, the 260 was refined by designer Rob Mazza and the Hunter Design Team to offer more stability, a revised deck layout, and improved ergonomics. Built by Hunter Marine (now Marlow-Hunter) until 2005, the 260 utilizes a water-ballast system that allows for a lightweight towing weight of approximately 3,000 pounds while providing 2,000 pounds of additional stability once the tanks are filled at the ramp.
