Description
The 2017 Hunt Surfhunter 29, Beyond the Sea, blends timeless Downeast styling with modern performance and comfort. Purchased new by her current owners, she was outfitted with nearly every available option and personally overseen during her build in Portsmouth, RI. After delivery, she was kept in Connecticut until 2021, when the owners relocated her to Hilton Head Island, SC. Since then, she has been under the care of a professional yacht manager, ensuring she has been meticulously maintained.
Powered by a Volvo Penta D6 370 HP diesel with low hours, Beyond the Sea offers a confident, efficient ride with a fast cruise around 30 knots and a top speed of 36 knots.
Her express hardtop with stainless steel supports, teak accents, and spacious cockpit create an inviting space for entertaining, day cruising, or even light fishing. Below, the beautifully finished interior features custom cherry joinery, Corian countertops, a well-equipped galley, enclosed head with shower, and a convertible V-berth—making overnight stays comfortable and stylish.
Fully equipped with twin Garmin multifunction displays, radar, autopilot, bow and stern thrusters, Fusion audio, and JL speakers, she is as capable as she is elegant. With legendary Hunt handling and premium craftsmanship throughout, Beyond the Sea is an ideal choice for an owner seeking a versatile express cruiser equally suited to day trips or extended weekends away.

Matt Malatich, CPYB is the Managing Broker of S&J Yachts in Charleston, S.C., where he is a standout in helping clients navigate the acquisition or disposition process of luxury cruising yachts.
Boating has always been at the forefront of Matt’s life. From growing up on boats, to pleasure cruising and racing, to watching his own kids learn the lines, Matt’s love of the sea is woven throughout the canvas of his life.
It’s no wonder that a heart for the water, a head for business and a degree from Hamilton College led Matt to launch his career in 1996 as a yacht broker with J/Port and then Crusader Yacht Sales in Annapolis, MD. In this role, he sold brokerage boats and new J/Boats, Ericsons, Pacific Seacraft, Sagas and Tiaras.
Shortly after being named Salesperson of the Year for Pacific Seacraft, Matt returned to his hometown of Princeton, N.J., in 1999 to expand his professional experience to commercial real estate. Matt served as a commercial real estate broker for CBRE and Preferred Real Estate Investments, where he focused on acquisitions of large corporate-owned properties for redevelopment as well as leasing of office properties and due diligence of large-scale dispositions.
Matt transitioned to the role of Assistant Director of Leasing for Hilton Realty, a fully integrated real estate development and management company in 2006. For nearly a decade, Matt’s primary focus was on marketing and leasing industrial, office and retail properties to large banks, law firms, technology firms, pharmaceutical companies, national retailers as well as mom and pop stores.
In 2015, Matt’s genuine affinity toward boating prompted him to make a sea change personally and professionally. Trading bricks for boats, Matt returned to the yacht brokerage business as the Managing Broker for S&J Yacht’s Charleston office.
Today, drawing from nearly 25 years of combined experience in yacht brokerage and commercial real estate, Matt has built a reputation for his proven ability to assist buyers and sellers of upscale power and cruising sailboats throughout North America and Europe.
As a seasoned broker, Matt understands that buying and selling can be both one of the most euphoric and stressful times in a boater’s journey, and views representation and guidance of his clients’ dreams as a true privilege.
Matt’s calm and easy demeanor provides clients with a steady hand at the wheel to help them obtain the best value for their dream yacht, as well as assisting sellers with a smooth sale of their vessel when the time is right. He is well positioned to be an advocate throughout the entire transaction process by prescreening boats (including obtaining their true histories), facilitating showings, navigating financing options, insurance needs, surveys and the closing process.
