SELLER DESCRIPTION

The Cheoy Lee Clipper 42", when built in 1970, was promoted as a cruising yacht of high quality and construction, combining the best features of the huskiest fiberglass hull with the craftsmanship evident in the exquisite Burma teak trim and joiner work.This Cheoy Lee was featured on the cover of Cruising World while in Europe with the original owner. The current owner has lovingly maintained her to the standards of a true yachtsman. For the past 15 years she has been in Florida and has been used sparingly beyond a three month annual stay in the Bahamas.A review of the detailed specs will show that this is a classic yacht awaiting an owner who will appreciate both her sailing characteristics and her superb condition.
