The Cheoy Lee Luders Offshore 28 represents a significant chapter in the transition of yacht building from traditional timber to modern composites. Designed by the esteemed naval architect A.E. "Bill" Luders Jr. and built by the Cheoy Lee Shipyard, this vessel was conceived as a rugged, sea-kindly pocket cruiser that retained the aesthetic elegance of a classic wooden yacht. Launched during the late 1960s and produced into the 1970s, the Offshore 28 was part of a broader "Offshore" series that established Cheoy Lee’s dominance in the export market, particularly in North America. The model is characterized by its high-aspect rig, a traditional full keel with a cutaway forefoot, and the extensive use of Burmese teak, which provides the "yacht-like" finish for which the builder remains famous.
