Hunter Marine
Hunter Marine Corporation is a U.S.-based yacht builder, now called Marlow-Hunter, LLC., which also produces the Mainship powerboat brand and the prestigious Marlow Yachts brand consisting of high quality world cruising long range power cruisers in the 37 to 110 foot range.
==History==
In the 1800s Henry Luhrs, a German immigrant, outfitted trading ships and owned a chandlery. His grandson, Henry, continued the family heritage on the New Jersey coast, building and repairing recreational and fishing boats. By the early 1960s Henry and his sons, John and Warren, were building over a thousand powerboats a year. Hunter was started in 1973 in Alachua, Florida, as the sailboat manufacturer. Hunter was sold in August 2012 to Mr. David E. Marlow, builder of Marlow Yachts.
The early Hunter boats, designed by John E. Cherubini, targeted the value-priced market and developed a reputation for respectable quality and good value. Marlow-Hunter utilizes the design service of Glenn Henderson and its in-house team. Hunter is responsible for several market innovations, including their trademark stainless steel cockpit arch and their use of the B & R rig. Hunter also began the construction of sailboats whose hulls make use of bow hollow and stern reflex, marine architecture design elements that maximize thrust under sail.
Best sales years were in mid 2000's with over 2,000 sailboats built per year in the Ct., Fl., and England plants. Now consolidated to one modern 150,000 square feet plant located on a 35-acre park like campus in Alachua, Florida, near the fertile research centers of The University of Florida.
