1961 Cheoy Lee Robb 35

Offered up for sale is wild rose, a Cheoy Lee Arthur Robb design. Built in Hong Kong, The hull is 7/8th inch teak planking on steam bent ipol frames, the mast is spruce, and the decks are teak over ply.

This incredible sailboat crossed the Pacific in 2018. There are a number of repairs to do, but she can be sailed without issue and is ready for its new owners who are willing to put in the TLC to restore her to perfect condition.

Author Robb was famous for his balanced hull forms and the beauty of his timeless designs. This boat is the prettiest boat wherever she drops anchor. She was built of the finest quality materials and craftsmanship. She was built to cross oceans and to turn heads.

This boat is beautifully balanced and well fitted for offshore cruising, sailing well under all conditions. In my 2018 pacific crossing, I put less than 80 hours on the engine in over 8000 miles of singlehanded sailing. She’s that easy to sail.

The previous owner kept her for 33 years and was a cabinetmaker by trade, and the meticulous attention to detail, both above and below deck, is evidenced throughout.

She is smartly equipped with all of the most practical features, comfort where it counts, and simplicity where it matters. She is listed below market value as I wish to sell her quickly and to the right owners.

2018 New Zealand performed survey available.

Bottom was repainted in 2019 and is in excellent condition. The hull was fully stripped back to bare wood and inspected in 2016 and found in excellent condition. TONS of spare tools and parts. More details than I can list. The boat is ready to sail today.

Email me for more details. At this price she is a bargain, so consider that when making an offer.

Thanks!
