REFIT: Hunt 36

Vessel: Hunt 36

Name: Pegasus
Owners: George & Lisa F.
Hailing Port: Dublin, New Hampshire

During the refit of this Hunt 36, the GIBY team worked closely with the owners to turn their visions into reality. The ultimate goal was to customize the boat to support extended cruising, even during New England’s cooler shoulder seasons.

With all that was added to the boat during the refit, careful planning was key to the successful use of limited space. Mockups of the new galley and the new Garmin electronics package at the helm, for example, were utilized to ensure efficient layout and owner satisfaction.

“GIBY made the refit a delightful challenge instead of a chore,” said the owners upon project completion.
