South Dartmouth, MA, US
The popularity of the Surfhunter 25 generated interest in a larger version, one with a bit more capacity and length, for longer open-water crossings and cozy overnighting. The Surfhunter 29 is more generous in cockpit and accommodations, offering standing headroom below decks, as well as a huge ensuite head with shower. The focus is clearly on the bridge deck area, with fully enclosed and protected seating for five and a great helm.
OLIVE US is an excellent example of the sought-after Surfhunter 29 JET Series. These are terrific jet boats - perfect for race chasing and trips to the beach - and essential in places like Maine with so many lobster traps to avoid. She will cruise on a plane at 15 knots and run nicely from there on up to 24+ knots fast cruise, with top end above 30 knots. She benefits from excellent maintenance and updating over the years, including Flag Blue hull paint, fresh non-skid, new teak eyebrows, varnished teak cockpit coaming boards, updated Sunbrella interior and Ultraleather exterior cushions and updated Garmin touch screen electronics.
OLIVE US has a modern and powerful Volvo common rail fully electronic diesel engine, which is incredibly efficient and provides great fuel economy.
This is a very well-cared-for Surfhunter 29 Jet with the desirable express hardtop being offered in full commission ready to go for summer with significant mechanical preventative service work having just been completed at one of New England’s finest yards, the Concordia Company, which services and stores dozens of Hunts. OLIVE US is clean as a whistle and represents tremendous value in today’s market. A proper sea trial confirms she is a terrific running jetboat. Built to last, we expect enjoyment for many for decades to come.
