The Cheoy Lee 52, specifically the Motorsailer variant designed by the renowned Dutch naval architect Pieter Beeldsnijder, represents a sophisticated era in the shipyard’s history. Launched during a period when Cheoy Lee was transitioning its focus from traditional sailing yachts to robust, long-range power-capable vessels, the 52 is a "heavy-displacement" cruiser intended for transoceanic passages. It occupies a unique niche between a traditional ketch and a long-range trawler, offering the redundancy of sail with the volume and engine power of a motor yacht. Built primarily at the Penny’s Bay facility in Hong Kong, the 52 was part of a broader Beeldsnijder-designed family that included the smaller 43 and the larger 66, all characterized by their high-volume hulls and distinctive Dutch aesthetic. Documentation on the model’s design heritage and its role in the yard's evolution can be found via the Cheoy Lee Association, which maintains historical archives for these vessels.
