Description
1994 Oyster 55 sovereig | Ostrika
Oyster Yachts, a name renowned worldwide in sailing circles for quality, elegance, and proven offshore performance and Ostrika, this 55 Sovereign, is no exception. Designed by Oyster’s in-house team of Holman & Pye and built by Oyster Marine UK, Ostrika has been maintained to an exceptional standard and stands as a true credit to her past and present owners.
This Oyster 55 Sovereign features wide, uncluttered teak decks, a secure and spacious centre cockpit, and a generous aft deck. She is cutter-rigged with in-mast furling, a modern sail wardrobe, and updated deck gear. Well-equipped with all the accessories and lots of spare parts required for extended cruising, Ostrika offers both performance and comfort.
Below decks, she reveals a light-filled saloon and spacious cabins, all beautifully finished in light American oak. Her machinery spaces are clean, well-maintained, and designed for easy access.
Safe and reliable bluewater cruising has always been a top priority for the current owner. Thanks to Oyster’s legendary build quality and the meticulous upkeep of Ostrika, she presents outstanding value for anyone seeking a capable, ready-to-cruise sailing vessel. Recently re-launched following a fresh antifoul, plus comprehensive servicing of the engine, genset and driveline, she is in top condition for her next owner.
To truly appreciate Ostrika’s level of presentation and equipment, an inspection is a must. Please get in touch for a full inventory and detailed photo set. The current owners are open to discussing delivery and importation options should a prospective purchaser wish to have Ostrika in New Zealand or Australia. Not for Sale to New Zealand Residents while in New Zealand waters.
