(published September 2016-boat show preview)
Among luxury, larger monohulls for long range cruising, the Oyster brand is one of the most famous and respected. The 625 that will be on display this fall, is a perfect example of what the modern Oyster line is all about. It is a large, moderate displacement sloop that can easily cross oceans while providing her owners, guests and crew a truly sumptuous yachting experience. The 625, like almost all Oysters, is a center cockpit, raised deck-saloon design with a huge aft master cabin and guest cabins forward. The fit and finish of modern Oysters, after 40 years of continuous build in England and elsewhere, ranks at the top with other fine yachts. For many cruisers, an Oyster is the ultimate blue water yacht. www.oysteryachts.com
