LISTING AGENT REMARKS:

If your ambition is to sail with good speed and luxurious comfort without needing a large crew, and to be able to go beyond the horizon at will with excellent safety, the Oyster 485 is designed for you.

For over thirty years Oyster has been building world class yachts designed to accommodate experienced yachtsman and novice alike. In addition to having the yacht of their dreams, Oyster owners are considered members of the Oyster Yachting family and have access to the highest level of builder's post purchase support.

This particular yacht made her debut at the 1995 Düsseldorf, Germany Boat Show as "Chips of London" before sailing the ARC later that year. A Mediterranean, Caribbean and Mexico cruising veteran, this captain maintained Oyster 485 is a prime example of the popular Hollman & Pye designed world class luxury cruising sailboat.

Well maintained, the legendary quality built into this Oyster yacht has been much improved by the current (second) owner of seven years. Fully found, cosmetically correct, having excellent teak decks, and an extensive spares inventory, (both major and bits and pieces), this yacht is primed for comfortable cruising.

With an Oyster Yacht, ownership is a wonderful experience!

Exclusions: Mosaic on forward salon bulkhead, personal tools, galley dishes and cookware, glasses and other obvious personal items not listed.
