 E-Mail Preston   Hello from Mackinaw City, Michigan. I have been taking care of my Cheoy Lee for some 30 years and, at age 70, considering passing her on to the next caretaker who appreciates these little boats. Mine was designed as a ‘one-off’ in 1962 by Lucander Designs. Built by Cheoy Lee and delivered in 1963 to a yacht club member who owned a 28’ slip in Mt. Clemens (Detroit). She is Lucander design #121 “Snapper” - 28’ teak/mahogany, large self-bailing cockpit with 6’ headroom below, original wooden mast. Hull still sound, systems still work, wheel steering, replaced Volvo with Yanmar 2GM20F.
