				About Us
		This website started as a User Group about 3 years ago from a gentleman by the name of Cliff Ruckstuhl who was looking for a few "H-28.5" drivers to discuss racing tactics with. Within a short time, this group grew and so did the discussions. Other people heard of this group and logged in to discuss maintenance problems, mast tuning, adding an extra battery and so on... I read about the group on Hunterowners.com, shortly after I purchased my H-28.5 in 2003. Unlike the other users, I didn't know anything about sailing, or sailboats. I purchased the boat out of hopes that my wife and I could learn to sail, cruise and do our own maintenance.  I'm fortunate to purchase such a fine boat and be able to meet a great bunch of guys who saved me truck loads of money. I learned two major facts: Sailboats take a lot of work and Hunter 28.5s originally came with only one battery. I won't give my opinion of cast iron keels. Well, after several years, the user group grew to over a hundred interested drivers so growing pains began to accrue. We decided that it was high-time to start our own website. Cliff had a lot on his plate, already, so he didn't have a lot of time to run a website. I think this goes for many of the members who either didn't have the technical computer knowledge, the time or money for this project. I decided "on a whim" to at least build the site and give it a try. The process went well, I bought (or leased) a domain name and found a great web host provider. I'm no artist, but I managed to put together some pictures and somehow made the whole thing work. Viola! We have our own website! Websites are bit like sailboats, they need to be constantly cleaned, polished and looking good. One of my responsibilities is to keep this site polished, cleaned and looking good. I'm constantly thinking about things to add for inter-activeness, interest and a major resource for technical and non-technical issues. You can help me by clicking on the guest book link below and letting me know what you would like from this site. That is, anything relating to the Hunter 28.5 and/or sailing. Well...Once in a while a Super bowl discussion doesn't hurt. The costs and time to build and maintain a website can be expensive. A donation of $10 dollars per year would be greatly appreciated. If you enjoy this website, or if you can get good information send me a check for $10 dollars to: Stephen Prusinski 41146 Mountain Pride Drive, Murrieta, CA 92562. The money will be used to offset the costs of operating and maintaining this website. This is a "Not-for-Profit" website. Thank You! Stephen Prusinski Webmaster
