Searching around for info on Cheoy Lee Bermuda 30's for my brother, I came across this. I didn't know she was built by Cheoy Lee. She looks nice, Chris, and the tiller to rudder hardware looks hell-for-stout.

Ah Chris, Shame you're selling. Hope it's for grander plans. To anyone else, a couple of us saw her the year before last at the MBBS. Lovely boat.

Some folk think the coast of Maine is only for deep legged boats. Not true. With a cat such as this, you can get up those nifty tickles and really see the area. I think cruising in one with perhaps a couple of inflatable kayaks such as my sister uses or a klepper or just towing them if you've a good cockpit tonneau cover would be the finastkind of trip.

Chris, please make a condition of sale that the person become, if not already is, a participant on this forum.

Ian, what are you talking about? I don't think Chris is selling. He's owned Victoria for something like 28 years and I don't think he'd ever sell her.

Handsome boat. I think I prefer a little less sheer, but handsome nonetheless.

Teak on teak, copper riveted. Finastkind.

Hurray! I'm wrong. It's an association link. I was numbly thinking it was a brokerage ad. Pays to actually read something. -

(this is the edit) Maybe - the little squib at the bottom of my screan says "Offered For Sale-Mic"

Still a great boat.

I don't think the photographs do her justice. Jack; when you see her in the flesh, the sheer is perfect.

Steven, do you have a picture of her sailing?

But I can't find one under sail. :(

Got any good ones Chris?
