ENDURANCE

Inspired by Shackleton built by Oyster, managed and inspired by a very experienced owner and owner build team.

To truly appreciate Endurance, a buyer must look past the Oyster standard specification and understand the sheer scale of the investment she represents in terms of time, money and experience. It is rare that a ready to sail, ready to circumnavigate Oyster of this calibre is available on the brokerage market for immediate delivery.

One of the many unique aspects of Endurance is the experience that was tapped into for her lengthy build.  Endurance has been professionally managed from day one of her construction through to her current operation, supported by two full-time, professional crew.

She has just completed an intensive 6-month professional shakedown cruise. This crucial period effectively ironed out the inevitable "teething issues" unique to all complex superyachts, leaving her in absolute turnkey condition with virtually no outstanding warranty items. Furthermore, she retains 10 months of transferable manufacturer warranty running until August 31, 2027.

Endurance was conceptualised with a clear, uncompromising mission: to travel to the most remote corners of the globe in absolute autonomy, safety, and uncompromising luxury. She is not a standard coastal cruiser; she is an engineered global explorer capable and reliable to allow any owner to fulfil their sailing dreams.

To achieve true off-grid independence, her mechanical grid was upgraded to an unprecedented standard:

• Redundant Power & Energy: A custom Solbian solar array is seamlessly integrated into the coachroof and the custom carbon hardtop bimini. This is backed by a massive 920Ah Mastervolt Lithium-Ion domestic battery bank and a dual-generator setup (19kVA and 11kVA Onan units).
• True Global Autonomy: Extended long-range voyaging is secured via increased fuel storage capacity, an automated Njord fuel polishing system to handle variable fuel quality in remote ports, a 140L/hr Seafresh watermaker, and a specialized Aegina water purification network.
• Extreme Climate Protection: Built to handle high-latitude ice fields or tropical humidity with equal ease, she features upgraded Armaflex thermal insulation throughout the hull and deckheads. Her 90,000 BTU Cruisair climate control is paired with a heavy-duty Eberspacher hydronic diesel heating matrix that has been uniquely extended to warm the cockpit during cold-weather passages.

Like all Oysters the ergonomics and sail-handling systems on Endurance were designed to allow the owners to be completely involved and active in the sailing experience.  Ease of use is key and thanks to her Hall Spars carbon 3-spreader mast, carbon V-boom, push-button hydraulic centerboard, and electric Lewmar winches, a couple can easily manage the sailing.

Light and agile on the helm, the powerful sail plan and powered sail handling systems delivery exhilarating performance, consistently fast and comfortable passage-making speeds, and effortless sailing.  Naval architect Rob Humphreys’ inspired hull for, long waterline and significant sail area ensures performance.

For remote exploration where safety is paramount, the yacht’s navigation and defensive systems were significantly upgraded to military-grade standards. Endurance is equipped with SEA-AI marine vision artificial intelligence to detect floating hazards, containers, and unlit vessels at sea. This is seamlessly paired with a FLIR / Raymarine M364 thermal imaging camera and an extensive network of external yacht monitoring systems and IP cameras, giving the captain and owner unmatched situational awareness in pitch-black night or dense fog.

Endurance offers the ability to seamlessly move into a charter structure for owners who may not have the time to enjoy her straight away.  She is commercially coded and ready to go.  Included is an extensive asset library of professional build and operational media. This high-end archive contains thousands of professional photographs and videos documenting her construction journey and active cruising, beautifully showcasing the incredible level of customisation inside her quarter-sawn walnut interior.

Endurance is an absolute masterpiece of modern yacht building. She represents an extraordinary opportunity to acquire a fully-sorted, hyper-spec'd, late-model Oyster 745 today.
