The Cheoy Lee 53' Motor Sailor has been long known as a rugged bluewater motorsailer capable of taking you to the furthermost reaches of the world's oceans. The raised helm deck provides captain and crew with a 360-degree view of their voyage. The cozy spacious pilothouse protects all from the harshest elements. These attributes are just a taste of the many highlights that have given this passage maker a cult following. Only a hand full were ever built and even fewer have been maintained and updated to the caliber of this awesome cruiser.
Standing dockside it is evident the amount of love that this vessel has been treated to. The new exterior paint, new teak decks, and constantly maintained varnish trim stop all walkers by to gaze at this beauty.
The vessel is easily boarded from the midship safety gates. From the water, two large gleaming stainless davits allow tender passengers quick retrieval of their new dinghy. The all-new teak decks provide sure-footed traction from stem to stern. Sturdy stainless bow and stern rails with side safety cables provide crew with protection while transiting the exterior decks. The raised helm deck with a full aft seating enclosure encircles all passengers during the harshest conditions.
