The Cheoy Lee Flying Buffalo 36 represents a distinctive departure from the heavydisplacement, fullkeel cruisers typically associated with the Hong Kong builder during the late 1960s and early 1970s. Designed by Maury DeClercq, the Flying Buffalo was born from the success of a wooden namesake—a oneoff design that famously dominated the Great Lakes racing circuit, including an overall victory in the 1967 Bayview Mackinac Race. Recognizing the potential for a production performance cruiser, Cheoy Lee transitioned the design to fiberglass, blending DeClercq’s competitive hull form with the shipyard’s signature teakheavy craftsmanship. Unlike the traditional clipper bows and long keels of the Luders or Robb designs, the Flying Buffalo 36 was engineered for speed, featuring a shorter fin keel and a detached spade rudder, which was a progressive configuration for a production boat of that era.
