Vessel Description

The Hunter 37.5 Legend is one of the most comfortable and well-rounded designs in the Hunter line of coastal cruisers. Introduced during a period of bold innovation for Hunter Marine, the Legend series became known for combining performance, comfort, and ease of handling - qualities that continue to make them enduring favorites among cruising sailors.

 

NIVEK is a standout example of that pedigree. Built for offshore cruising, she delivers what Hunter promised: a yacht that’s simple to maintain, responsive under sail, thoughtfully equipped, and remarkably livable. Whether you’re an experienced sailor or just beginning your cruising adventures, NIVEK offers both confidence and comfort on the water.

 

Powered by a 38hp Yanmar 3JH2E (1,100 hrs), she carries a fully battened mainsail, two genoas, and a cruising spinnaker - ready for confident sailing in a variety of conditions. Electronics include an ICOM VHF with remote mic, Garmin chartplotter, Raytheon EV100 autopilot, and AWI/SWI indicator for reliable navigation.  Her open cockpit is designed for both versatility and relaxation, featuring a folding teak table, walk-through transom, swim platform with hot/cold shower, and a dodger with attached bimini - perfect for sailing in any weather.  

 

Below decks, NIVEK offers 6’6” of headroom, overhead skylights, a teak-and-holly sole, and teak cabinetry that create a bright, welcoming interior. The Main Salon flows into an L-shaped Galley with Corian countertops, double stainless sink, Princess three-burner stove/oven, and double-lid icebox. She comfortably sleeps seven, with a convertible dinette, starboard settee, private forward stateroom, and a large aft cabin with queen berth and generous storage. The head features a molded vanity, shower with circular curtain track, teak fold-down bench, and varnished teak grate flooring.

 

A Fairclough Custom full winter cover and frame is included in the sale.

 

NIVEK isn’t just a sailboat—she’s a proven Legend, ready for her next adventure with you at the helm.
