Seamaster 47

Description

The Seamaster 47 is a rare, heavy-displacement staysail ketch (sometimes listed as a motorsailer-style cruiser) built in limited numbers by Cheoy Lee in the 1970s. It was originally designed by William Garden for wood construction and then adapted for fiberglass production. Only about 5–6 hulls were built, making surviving examples uncommon.
