Oyster unveil her new Oyster 495 in a World Premiere that will visit Cannes Yachting Festival, France, 6th to 11th September.

The journey began in London at St Katharine Docks in April and is now on her way to Cannes Yachting Festival. So far, she has visited Oslo, Gothenburg, Copenhagen, Hamburg and Southampton, and is now in the Mediterranean for the next leg of the premiere. From Barcelona she will visit Cannes, Genoa and Palma in 2022, then Miami and Sydney in 2023.

Viewing the 495 will be done at Cannes Yachting Festival, allowing attendees to explore her in their own time, in a safe and relaxed environment.

Elegantly-built from stem to stern the Oyster 495 is an Oyster through and through. She is designed to offer a stunning combination of performance, comfort and style, with seamanlike qualities in equal measure. Built by some of Britain’s finest craftsmen, she combines modern styling, creative detailing and a host of practical seamanlike features not normally seen in a 50 foot yacht for sale.

By refining proven design concepts, this 50 foot sailboat promises exceptional performance while being comfortable and easy to handle for a family crew. Hosting a dinner party for friends, exploring coastal waters, crossing oceans or even circumnavigating the globe, no other 50 foot yacht offers such limitless potential.

The latest collaboration between Humphreys Yacht Design and Oyster’s own in-house design studio, the new Oyster 495 has clean hull lines and carries her beam well aft, which contributes to form stability and sailing performance. This 50 foot sailboat features the same twin rudder configurations found on our larger yachts.

She is light and easy on the steering, offering fingertip control in even the most boisterous conditions. Add a range of technology to make shorthanded sailing even easier, including in-mast furling and push-button B&G sail handling controls operated from the helm positions, she will be a joy to sail. All these elements combined she will be responsive and fast-moving, with an ability to offer consistently high speeds for excellent passage-making.
