Cheoy Lee Pedrick 41 Buyer's Guide
The Cheoy Lee Pedrick 41 was built from 1982 through 1994 as the yard's departure from its traditional cruisers, and David Pedrick's race-design pedigree produced a 40'10" fiberglass sloop that still draws cruising sailors shopping the brokerage market in North America. Two keel configurations exist — a 6-foot deep fin and a 4'4"-to-9-foot centerboard — and both share a 23,000-pound displacement on a 12'8" beam with a Perkins 4-108 diesel and a V-drive aft.
Layouts on the Used Market
Every example follows the same interior plan: a central saloon with opposing settees and a drop-leaf table, a forward V-berth, and a starboard aft double quarter berth. The port midship galley is U-shaped and usable underway, the starboard head is large with its own stall shower, and the nav station faces aft by the companionway. The centerboard boats carry the shoal-draft advantage and a recommended 50-foot mast instead of the standard 53-foot rig, but give up some windward performance to the deep-keel sisters.
Equipment and Common Upgrades
Radar and chartplotter are commonly fitted to boats on this market, forming the core of the navigation suite a buyer should expect to find. Beyond those, the available records leave little else to generalize; the original Perkins 4-108 and V-drive remain the defining mechanical package, and any energy or sail-handling additions are best verified per boat rather than assumed.
What to Inspect
The deck and superstructure are the weak point of the design and the most common source of problems anchor. Age lets caulking and fasteners fail, driving water into the cored subdeck, and window and hatch leaks are common enough to damage interior wood if left alone. Osmotic blisters show up fairly often on the solid hulls. Underwater, the cast stainless steel struts, centerboards, and propellers can pit deeply and fail structurally, so any such part over ten years old needs thorough examination anchor. Finally, the V-drive places the engine aft and makes the shaft packing gland harder to service — budget for that access limitation.
Availability and Buyer's Takeaway
These boats turn up in the United States and Canada. For a shopper, the checklist is short and pointed: confirm deck-core dryness and window seals, survey the cast stainless underwater gear for pitting, and plan for difficult shaft-gland access at the V-drive. A clean, maintained example is a livable, well-mannered cruiser with real blue-water potential.
