Broker's Comments
The Oyster 39 is a classic centre-cockpit cruising yacht, known for her solid construction and comfortable layout. This example has a notably wide, beamy feel which translates into generous interior space, including a particularly large aft cabin that many owners value on these boats.
The ketch rig and long keel give her the look and feel of a traditional cruising yacht, designed with steady passage making in mind.
The aft deck is also a good size, offering plenty of space to move around and a comfortable area to spend time when at anchor or in harbour. Inside, the layout reflects the practical cruising design Oyster became well known for.
This boat is very much in need of a comprehensive refit and should be viewed as a project. However, being an Oyster, she appears to have good bones and could offer a rewarding opportunity for someone prepared to invest the time and effort to bring her back to her former glory.
Her engine turns and the indicated 66 hours' running concur with its exterior appearance.
For the right person, she may represent an interesting project and the chance to restore a well-regarded cruising yacht.
