Bare Necessities is a stunning 82’ custom built Oyster, designed to deliver a luxurious sailing experience. From first glance you will notice the stunning hull colour of metallic blue with metallic silver boot top and cover lines. Her size and uncluttered teak deck is perfect for entertaining. The large cockpit with two tables can comfortably seat guests for eating ‘al fresco’.
Unlike most 82s, Bare Necessities has a custom built archway above centre cockpit with integrated lights and custom carbon framed windscreen to protect the main companionway providing excellent shelter as well as sun protection. The stern design incorporates a bathing platform trimmed for easy access to the stern deck and swimming ladder.
Her powerful cutter rig with carbon Smart boom, top quality laminate sails with main being fully battened, hydraulic furlers all go to provide exceptional performance with minimum effort.
Below deck, her maple interior makes her very light and makes for a very open feel. The upper saloon offers excellent views with large deck saloon windows and has a 42” screen neatly flushed in. There is a four-sided wraparound settee surrounding a square, custom, swivel and expanding table which accommodates up to eight guests to dine together in comfort. The lower saloon has a large L-shaped settee with another folding table. This is a wonderful area to read, play games or watch movies on the 32in screen.
