Cereros is a well finished, twin keeled Hunter Channel 31. She was fitted out from a kit to a high standard and she appears to be professionally finished. This could be the ideal family cruiser for exploring the shallows of the East coast or even further! She has always been a locally owned boat and well cared for. This is evident when you walk on board.
