Aurora is
our 1965 Cheoy Lee Offshore 40 sailboat. Constructed in Taiwan in 1964/65,
Aurora is not a standard Offshore 40. She was built using a standard Offshore
deck and interior, with the Offshore offset companionway to port, but on a
Reliant hull, with external lead ballast and rounded wood rudder. Upgrades
include new corian countertops, a new teak dinette table, new cushions in all
cabins, a new Princess stove and new refrigeration. |

doors. Not visible is the new teak table, and the new Adler Barbour refer
compressor installed in the compartment below the companionway ladder. |
