"Triton" - 1967
Offshore 31 OWNERS - Lindsey Stewart & Bruce Issell AREA OF SAILING - Hong Kong E-Mail Lindsey & Bruce Purchased Triton from Andy Lawrence 10/03 and have had a number of overnight sails on this beautiful little yacht unfortunately age has been catching up with her and minor leaks have caused some significant deterioration internally. They have just begun major restoration, currently they have the interior stripped down to the mast support frames, which are rusted away at the bottom, new stainless steel frames are being built as we speak. They are also relining the interior and replacing windows and frames are being built the portholes de-chromed and keeping her looking as original as possible, however they are going to replace the saloon cabin sides and rear saloon paneling with white lamipanel and teak trims. Fortunately they are able to work fulltime on this project and expect it to take about six months to fully restore her. Website - http://www.yachtwillow.com/ |

"Irish Mist" - 1972 Offshore 31 Ketch OWNERS - Thomas Gibbs AREA OF SAILING - Richmond CA, SF Bay E-Mail Thomas 
I have been looking after her as the latest owner for more than 2 years now. In her early history, I believe it was the 2nd owner in the early 80's who set off across the pacific , hitting the marquesas Is. and eventually the Great Barrier reef area of Aus. She was shipped back to Cali. after that. re. current: I have renewed a number of areas in the past 2 years; incl. the standing and running rigging, sanded and recaulked the decks, recovered the cushions, installed a new alternator. she still has wood masts which I have recently worked on , improving the rigging attachment and shives at the top of the main. Had a new tiller made. redid her underside. .... We love to sail her past Alcatraz and out past the golden gate she as smooth as a 54 Buick roadmaster! |

"Phoenix" - Offshore 31 OWNERS - Rick Raffensperger AREA OF SAILING - Chesapeake Bay E-Mail Rick Phoenix was purchased from Tim Quinn in Dighton Mass. We're keeping the name being that Phoenix is doing what they do best, Rebirth! I was able to catch her before her decks started to rot out and various other small leaks started to do their damage. She is presently almost at the end of her cosmetic refit. The bilge is now clean enough to eat off of, and the fuel tank is cleaned. Whew! Diesel sludge is some nasty stuff. There was a small air leak in the fuel line but that is now fixed. Just awaiting the new stem plate and chain plates then the sticks go up. This summer we'll be cruising the upper Chesapeake and maybe even take a trip up to Block Island in June. What a pretty boat! |

Offshore 31 OWNERS - Whit & Carol Johnson AREA OF SAILING - Naval Air Station Pensacola, Florida E-Mail Whit & Carol Purchased "MISS TEAK" in 1991. They are the third owners of this classic 31 foot off shore Ketch. During the past 13 or so years, extensive reconditioning has been completed both interior and exterior, plus new sails and canvas. They also had the MD-2 Volvo rebuilt in 2002. Presently she sports new fiberglass decks and is in near "Bristol" condition. She truly is the "Bellie of the Bay" and definitely a pleasure to sail. Daily sails, weekend cruises and PHRF racing are our forte. Lifetime Cheoy Lee Association Member UPDATE: Unfortunately we received word from Whit and Carol that "Miss Teak" was sunk by Hurricane Ivan. We are always saddened to hear of a Cheoy Lee sinking. james... |

I am a new owner of a beautiful, but rough, Cheoy Lee Offshore 31 ketch. 1971 vintage. All systems work, but previous owner was not exactly a craftsman, so much of the cosmetics needs to be redone. The boat is my home, and is located on the hook in Manatee Pocket, Port Salerno, (City of Stuart, Martin County), FL. She needs to be hauled, spars refinished, (Sitka Spruce). Probably won't be under sail for another 6 months. 4 cylinder Perkins, radar, auto pilot. Then will be cruising Atlantic Coast of FL, Keys and Bahamas and ? |
