Brokers Comments:
A proven offshore cruiser with timeless lines and enduring craftsmanship, this 1978 Cheoy Lee Offshore 41 is a Ray Richards-designed sloop and one of only 100 ever built. Celebrated for its robust construction, classic teak interior, and capable sailing performance, the Offshore 41 is a rare and respected choice for serious sailors.

Built in Cheoy Lee's renowned Hong Kong shipyard, this vessel features a solid fiberglass hull, fin keel, and skeg-hung rudder-a configuration that offers strength, directional stability, and responsive handling offshore. The teak decks are not only visually striking but provide secure footing in wet conditions, ideal for safe movement at sea. Notably, the teak is in exceptional condition-possibly the finest seen on a Cheoy Lee of this vintage.

Rigged as a sloop and equipped with a seven-sail inventory, this yacht offers excellent versatility and balance under sail. Her moderate displacement and thoughtful rig design result in a sea-kindly motion and reliable performance, whether cruising locally or preparing for bluewater passages.

Below deck, the traditional layout is both practical and welcoming. The main stateroom is aft to starboard, offering privacy, comfort, and good ventilation. The galley to port is well-equipped with ample counter space and secure storage, ideal for extended cruising. Forward, the V-berth area is currently set up for storage-perfect for sails, gear, and provisions-but can easily be converted back into a single berth with the addition of cushions, offering layout flexibility. Throughout the interior, rich teak joinery adds warmth and charm.

This vessel is loaded with storage, featuring deep lockers, cabinetry, and cleverly designed compartments throughout-more than enough space to support long-distance cruising or full-time living aboard. A dedicated navigation station and generous main salon round out a layout that is both functional and comfortable.

The boat comes with several valuable extras, including a full canvas enclosure, solar panels, inverter, wind charger, and a water maker-key additions for extended cruising or off-grid living. The electronics suite is currently minimal, providing a blank canvas for the next owner to outfit the vessel to their preferences and sailing style.

The sails and rigging are serviceable for protected waters, but offshore use is recommended only following a full inspection and any necessary upgrades. This honest representation ensures the next owner can prepare the yacht confidently for serious passagemaking.

This Cheoy Lee Offshore 41 is an exceptional opportunity for a buyer seeking a capable, classic cruising yacht with genuine pedigree and remarkable potential.
