Oyster 27m 885 Series II Sailing Yacht | Design & Luxury

In an ingenious blend of technology, engineering, and design, this versatile and top-performance bluewater sailing yacht has given Oyster 885 a confident and effortless alignment with style and luxury while delivering an exhilarating sailing experience. State-of-the-art, digitally connected, and seamlessly integrated systems have been incorporated and combined into sensible centralized arrangements that facilitate safety and ease of operation, and full digital connectivity allows complete control from anywhere on the yacht from a tablet or mobile phone application.

 

Oyster 885 is a 90-foot yacht crafted by British master craftsmen and women and Oyster hones in on even the most meticulous details with a laser focus to create a yacht that exemplifies superior yachting standards. With vessels built in the UK at facilities in Norfolk and Southampton, Oyster yachts exude a deep sense of pride and handcrafted quality synonymous with the brand.

Oyster has been designing and constructing sailing yachts for almost 50 years and has expanded operations to include technology centers and state-of-the-art production facilities. From raw materials to completed design, everything about Oyster yachts is firmly rooted in their commitment to precise and exceptional boat building performed by the finest master craftsmen, designers, and engineers.

This dedication and drive for quality manifest undeniably in the construction and design of Oyster 885. With breathtaking performance, this distinctive yacht leaves nothing to be desired in terms of comfort, performance, and luxury. Six cabins with four double ensuites and generous entertaining spaces bring plenty of socialization and relaxation opportunities while aboard.

Oyster 885 contains many benefits that would commonly be suited to a much larger yacht. But at just shy of 90 feet, she artfully sidesteps the extra work and requirements set out by the 24-foot load line rule, making her the perfect vessel for sailing, fun, and adventure.

Once aboard, a large protected cockpit lends itself to informal gatherings and makes an excellent casual meeting space. Guests can nestle into the spacious couches, a fold-out table and thoughtfully included refrigerator, make this an ideal spot for lunch or drinks while sailing across the ocean waves. Integrated speakers with Bluetooth connectivity can be used to select the ideal tunes to complement the mood of the day.

Unrestricted views in all directions mean that sailors can keep an eye on things, and a large power-assisted doorway leads down into the spacious saloon. If the open and breezy cockpit area doesn’t provide enough entertainment space, the deck further benefits from a foredeck tender well which can be covered with a bimini top and decorated with scatter cushions to make a delightful sunbathing area or chillout zone.

Oyster is designed to include all the comforts of home while at sea for extended periods with versatile and spacious gathering areas. Twin rudders combined with a perfecty balanced hull, support high performance and safe comfortable cruising. Oyster can achieve and maintain consistently high speeds in a seemingly effortless mix of responsiveness and vigor. A carbon rig with a Park Avenue boom ensures easy and safe handling in all weather conditions, and the push-button operation of winches makes short-handed sailing simple. For smooth maneuvering, and responsive yacht handling, hydraulic systems and bow and stern thrusters can be managed with fingertip operation.

Comfortable twin helm stations are positioned to make sailors feel at one with the yacht, and all necessary controls and instruments are located close to hand. A large LCD panel provides clear navigation information and the helm station allows exceptional visibility across the yacht’s deck area and the surrounding ocean. Handling is precise with Oyster responding the slightest touch or movement of the helm. An expansive deck area sits just behind the helm station, and twin couches provide ample seating
