Owner’s Notes 

Cool Runnings

 

Hunter 33  

 
 
Dear Friends, 
 
Welcome aboard 

Cool Running

s, which means “safe journey.” We placed 

Cool Runnings 

in charter with San Juan Sailing after enjoying her all to ourselves for four years in the 
Pacific Northwest. Before that, we chartered sailboats from San Juan Sailing, so we have 
been in your shoes as a charter guest.

  

 
Cool Runnings

 is a Hunter 33, one of the most popular mid-sized Hunter models, and we 

think she is very well-suited for cruising adventures in the Pacific Northwest. We love 
her easy handling under power or sail, the comfortable cockpit with a cockpit arch, and 
the stern rail seats. Down below, we love the extra long berths in the aft and forward 
cabins and the spacious convertible dinette in the light and airy main cabin.  
 
For the 2019 season, we added a new main sail, an AIS transceiver, and a new 
refrigerator.  
 
We’ve made many wonderful cruising memories in the San Juan Islands and points 
north…our hope is that you enjoy 

Cool Runnings

 as much as we do. If something comes 

up, please feel free to give us a call at (360) 298-8764.  
 
If you would like to suggest anything that would make her more enjoyable for you, please 
let us know through San Juan Sailing. We’ve tried not to overlook any detail in our effort 
to equip her for comfortable, fun and safe travels.  
 
We wish you wonderful memories and “Cool Runnings” on your voyage. Thank you for 
being our guests! 
 
Sincerely, 
 
John and JoAnn Satzinger 

Cool Runnings
