The Oyster 885 Series II is a remarkable 90 foot sailboat. Designed and engineered to deliver exceptional comfort and safety without compromising sailing performance, this luxury sailboat is exhilarating to sail and capable of taking you anywhere in the world.
At just under 90 feet, this luxury sailboat comes in just below the 24m Load Line Rule. She is a stunning-looking yacht; every inch is intelligently utilised, and she cuts through the red tape for managing larger vessels.
The generous living space is very welcoming and there is a large entertaining area on deck. Below, there are four en-suite double guest cabins. Her distinctive wrap-around saloon windows flood the space with natural light. Combine this with Oyster’s signature seascape windows in the aft guest cabins, and you enjoy a wonderfully open feel with spectacular ocean views all round.
Dan joined Oyster’s Newport office in 2011 following a career with a leading international brokerage. Prior to coming ashore he held various positions aboard, starting in 2003 and culminating with his captaincy of S/Y Argo, a 110’ Langan Design Schooner. While at sea, Dan completed crossings of the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans, and accumulated over 50,000 miles of blue-water cruising experience, including extensive landfalls and oversight of several major refits. Dan is married with a young son and resides in Jamestown, Rhode Island.
S/Y Lush - Oyster 885 - 01
Built in 2012 for the inaugural Oyster World Rally. Since her circumnavigation she has sailed across the Atlantic 14 times and spends her winters in the Caribbean and summers in the Mediterranean.
Lush anchored in Sardinia showing her large hydraulic swim platform with ample room for all to swim, shower and even setup some director's chairs to enjoy a sundowner on.
The swim platform is perfect for family fun and provides a clear area for showering after swimming and fun afloat with the onboard toys.
The foredeck encompasses a sunken tender well which can be converted into the 'Zen Room' which comfortably seats over 10 people and can be used for drinks, nibbles or even an outdoor cinema.
There is ample room in the tender well for you and the kids and can be covered with a full tensile awning for sun protection.

The large split cockpit delivers a safe and spacious guest cockpit. Having the helm stations and primary winches behind allows the crew to sail the yacht without hindering the guest area.
A view of the guest cockpit laid for breakfast on the fold out teak table which sits upon a large cockpit fridge. The whole area is well protected from the elements when cruising with the spray hood and bimini up. This protects you from the sun, wind & spray!
A view forward showing the large cockpit table and the stylish companionway door in the closed position. The windows in the spray hood provide superb visibilty forward.
With a 105% headsail and swept back spreaders the 885 is quick, simple and nimble to sail.
