The Hurley 24/70 is a small cruiser with four six foot plus long berths, and almost six foot headroom in the saloon. She has a small high aspect ratio mainsail, and a fairly large genoa. This example has a Yanmar diesel, was completely rewired in 2006, and has a good inventory including radar and chartplotter. It could be possible to take over use of a mooring with this yacht.

Ian Anderson designed the Hurley 24/70 for Hurley Marine in 1972, as a larger version of the long-running and very successful Hurley 22, but with a more modern look, and in particular, with more headroom. He also switched from the long keel of the earlier Hurley designs to a more modern fin and skeg configuration. Most Hurley 24/70s were inboard engined, with a 5 hp Petter diesel, but some were outboard-powered. By now most of these original engines have been replaced.

When Hurley went out of business in 1974 the mouldings of the Hurley 24/70 were taken over by Atlanta Marine, who marketed the yacht as the Atlanta 24, and later cut the hull mould amidships and stretched it from 23' 9" to 24' 9" to make the Atlanta 25.

The boat was marketed when new as having six foot headroom, but that clearly referred only to one precise point underneath the hatch. In fact saloon headroom is 5' 7" forward to 5' 10" aft, which is actually quite good for a 24 foot boat with a reasonably attractive cabin top

The heads compartment has a door, but the forecabin has a canvas screen separating it from the saloon. The vee-berth makes two singles 6' 6" long on the vee . with an infill to make a double berth.

The galley has a small sink, and at present this boat is fitted

with a gimbaled two-burner gas cooker with an integral Camping Gaz bottle

Both saloon berths are 6' 5" long.
The radar display, chartplotter and VHF radio are mounted on a board
which can face inwards to the cabin or be set in the companionway
to be viewed from the cockpit,

Engine access is via a removable panel in the saloon,
plus a hinged hatch in the forward part of the cockpit sole.
The Yanmar diesel has had a Balmar high-output 110 amp alternator added.
