The MarlowHunter 40 marks a significant departure from the classic Hunter "Legend" era, representing the first major design evolution following the acquisition of Hunter Marine by David Marlow in 2012. Designed by Glenn Henderson, this 40foot cruiser was engineered to satisfy the demands of coastal cruisers who prioritize volume and ease of handling without sacrificing the structural improvements introduced under Marlow’s leadership. The hull features a distinctive hard chine carried well aft and a "bow hollow" design intended to improve entry and speed. Unlike its predecessor, the Hunter 39, the MarlowHunter 40 utilizes NPG gelcoat and Kevlar reinforcement in the forward sections of the hull to enhance impact resistance and prevent osmotic blistering. The model's evolution is further reflected in its sibling variants; while the 40 is a standalone hull, its design language is mirrored in the MarlowHunter 37, which shares the same deck styling and stainless steel cockpit arch system.
