The Hunter 270 is an American sailboat that was designed for cruising and first built in 2000.

The design was built by Hunter Marine in the United States, but it is now out of production.

The Hunter 270 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass. It has a fractional sloop rig with a full-batten mainsail, a nearly plumb stem, a walk-through reverse transom, a transom-hung rudder controlled by a wheel and a fixed wing keel. It displaces 5,000 lb (2,268 kg).

The boat has a draft of 3.50 ft (1.07 m) with the standard wing keel fitted.

The boat is normally fitted with a small outboard motor for docking and maneuvering but had an original factory option of a Japanese Yanmar inboard diesel engine of 9 hp (7 kW). The fuel tank holds 15 U.S. gallons (57 L; 12 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 20 U.S. gallons (76 L; 17 imp gal).

Standard equipment supplied included masthead anchor lights, an enclosed head, teak and holly cabin sole, a butane stove, kitchen dishes, portable cooler, anchor, stainless steel boarding ladder and life jackets. Factory optional equipment included a Bimini top, road trailer, roller furler, spinnaker and a marine VHF radio.

The design has a PHRF racing average handicap of 222 with a high of 234 and low of 215. It has a hull speed of 6.46 kn (11.96 km/h).
