The Cheoy Lee 41, primarily known in its most popular iteration as the Offshore 41, represents a definitive era of transition for the Hong Kongbased shipyard. Designed by Seattlebased naval architect Ray Richards and introduced in the early 1970s, the model was a departure from the earlier, more traditional woodenstyle aesthetics of the Arthur Robb designs, moving toward a more modern, robust fiberglass cruiser capable of serious offshore work. While Cheoy Lee also produced a later 41foot model designed by David Pedrick in the 1980s, the Richardsdesigned Offshore 41 remains the most culturally and numerically significant "41" in the builder's history. It was offered in both sloop and ketch configurations, catering to the longrange cruising community that valued the yard's signature blend of heavyduty GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic) hulls and lavish teak interiors.
