Breathtakingly beautiful and presented in immaculate condition, Loblolly is one of the finest examples of the very successful Oyster 62 model, featuring a number of unique features, such as a shoal keel, in-boom furling, and a fully appointed gourmet galley, that are simply not available in any other yacht in this size and price point. Given her $450,000 +, extensive refit, “big ticket” improvements and major maintenance done since 2015, Loblolly represents truly outstanding value for the offering price, as compared to other similar 60-70’ yachts. A surveyor recently commented that she presented as well as a five-year old boat because of her extensive refit and new components.
The shoal draft keel draws a mere 6’7” and opens the door to exploring shallow waters other yachts in this size could only dream of voyaging; The Chesapeake, Bahamas, Florida and parts of the Caribbean and Pacific are now well within reach.
Loblolly was spared no expense in build and has been in private use, lovingly maintained with a light touch and an open checkbook by the same experienced, hands-on sailing couple that commissioned her and offer her for sale today. Sporty and comfortable, Loblolly was designed for shorthand sailing but has the volume and accommodation to support Captain and Crew if desired.
Her inventory is complete with a comprehensive set of spares, storm sail, spinnaker and everything an intrepid sailor could wish for. Just climb aboard and set sail, Loblolly is turnkey and ready for her next adventure.
