Description
44' Cheoy Lee Sloop
We are pleased to present this updated Blue Water Sailing Vessel with her aft cockpit design.
Refitting started in California a number of years ago and initially included removing the teak decks and wood mast. A 55ft aluminum mast and new rigging were installed, and a new boat was born. She has since been repowered and much more..
She has recently had a roller furling added to the staysail, and the main was converted to a roller-furled boom.
There are many additional upgrades and features.
Her owner was equipping her for a perfect Airbnb. While a few projects remain to make her what he envisioned, the heavy lifting and expensive effort are complete.
Let her owner's change in plans be your opportunity to own this true sailing vessel.
She needs to find the open waters to take full advantage of her sailing attributes.
With two staterooms and two freshwater heads, she would make a perfect live-aboard.

There is also a second VHF in this pod.
The bottom was done, and the bow thruster was installed fifteen months ago.
On deck the entire walking surface has been covered in newly installed Seadeck. New hardware for both the main and staysail has also recently been added.
Personal Note From Her Broker
You may ask why I am so high on this boat. Why this boat?
Her owner is a real sailor, craftsman, and naval architect.
But the real reason I know so much about him and this boat is the same owner and captain who renovated my entire 1988 house in Palm City. He took her down to the studs and incorporated upgrades that I could have never imagined.
His work is quality!
Broker's Comments
She has been owned for several years by a proven craftsman who has upgraded several boats. His work on his own boat has often been interrupted by other contracts and requirement but she shows his love and the attention to detail he puts in all of his work.Her recent decking took longer than he had planned but she is ready for a new crew.
Since she is a boat and a sailboat at that there will always be something else he would like to add. Come she her and be ready to be pleased.
You can sail away today.
