The Hunter 45 DS (Deck Saloon), introduced in late 2007 for the 2008 model year, represents one of the most refined iterations of Glenn Henderson’s "modern cruiser" philosophy. Designed to replace the popular Hunter 44, the 45 DS utilized the same successful hull form while modernizing the aesthetics with a sleek, wraparound windscreen and a more open cockpit. As noted in a detailed Cruising World Review, Henderson's primary goal was to create a boat that was not necessarily a "racer," but one that achieved hull speed with minimal effort and remained "nimble and forgiving" for new or shorthanded sailors.
