The Cheoy Lee 47 is one of the most respected bluewater cruising yachts to emerge from the golden era of offshore sailboat construction. Built in 1985 by Hong Kong's legendary Cheoy Lee shipyard — renowned for decades of quality craftsmanship and seaworthy design — this 14.32-metre monohull represents serious ocean capability in an elegant, proven package. With a beam of 4.2 metres and a draft of 2 metres, she carries the balanced proportions that made the Cheoy Lee range a favourite among experienced offshore sailors worldwide.
The two-cabin layout offers comfortable cruising accommodation for couples or small crews, with a practical interior designed for life at sea as much as life in port. Currently lying in the stunning Bay of Islands — one of New Zealand's premier sailing destinations — this yacht is ideally positioned for coastal cruising or passage preparation. Whether you're planning a Pacific circuit or simply seeking a capable, characterful bluewater yacht with genuine heritage, the Cheoy Lee 47 delivers in every respect.
Offered at NZD $235,000, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a classic offshore cruiser with an outstanding pedigree. Inspection strongly recommended.
