The Cheoy Lee 43 MS (Motorsailer) represents a significant era in the evolution of the cruising yacht, bridging the gap between the traditional, heavy-weather motor vessels and the performance-oriented sailing yachts of the late 1970s. Designed by the renowned naval architect Robert Perry, the 43 MS was built during the shipyard's prolific period at Penny's Bay, Hong Kong. Unlike many motorsailers of its time that prioritized engine power at the expense of sailing ergonomics, the 43 MS was engineered to be a legitimate sailing vessel, benefiting from Perry’s signature "performance cruiser" DNA. It is a heavy-displacement, center-cockpit ketch or sloop that provides a secure, all-weather platform for long-range voyaging, characterized by its distinctive raised pilothouse and robust fiberglass construction.
