Description
Looking for an affordable coastal cruising sailboat with a trusted name behind it? This 2002 Hunter 306 is newly listed with our brokerage at Blue Yonder Yachts and is ready for its next adventure.
The Hunter 306 has long been a favorite among sailors thanks to its spacious layout, easy handling, dependable Yanmar diesel power, and comfortable accommodations that make weekends aboard or coastal cruising enjoyable.
Whether you're shopping for your first cruising sailboat, downsizing into an easy-to-manage cruiser, or simply looking for a quality 30-foot Hunter sailboat, this boat could be your ticket to enjoying life on the water.
Valiente has also received a substantial list of recent upgrades (2025/2026), making this an especially interesting boat at her price point.
Highlights include:
• 18 HP Yanmar diesel with just 304 reported hours
• New 200Ah lithium house battery
• New 2,000W pure sine wave inverter/charger
• 400W of new solar with Victron MPPT controller on custom S/S arch
• New alternator, engine mounts, shift cable and shut-off cable
• New custom Doyle 110% roller-furling jib
• New running rigging
• New Garmin GNX wind instrumentation
• Refrigeration updated in 2026
• New LED lighting, USB outlets and cabin fans
• New Delta anchor with galvanized chain and rode
• Slab-reefed mainsail and B&R fractional rig
• Wheel steering with large T-shaped cockpit
• Walk-through transom and swim platform
• Two private cabins plus convertible accommodations for up to six
• Enclosed head with shower
• L-shaped galley with two-burner propane stove and refrigeration
At $34,000 USD, Valiente offers a practical route into cruising without taking on the cost and complexity of a substantially larger yacht. She is currently located in San Carlos, Sonora, one of the Sea of Cortez’s established boating centers and only about 250 miles south of the U.S. border.
