Oyster 495: the dream boat that sets the bar
Sam Fortescue
January 2, 2023
Oyster have long set the standard for luxurious blue-water cruisers, and the Oyster 495 is the new baby in the range. Even if you’re not in the market for one, it’s nice to dream, says Sam Fortescue

Following an era which saw Oyster yachts getting progressively bigger and bigger, the iconic British boatbuilder has shifted its gaze back to the sort of boats that made it famous. And the first fruit of this welcome development is the comely Oyster 495.
The best part of £2 million all told, she is eye-wateringly expensive. So why sail her?
Well, this iconic British brand has long set the standard when it comes to offshore and ocean luxury cruising yachts, so it’s worth seeing, if only to measure other boats against.

Even if you haven’t got that kind of loose change in your pocket, it’s nice to dream, isn’t it?
Freshly designed from the keel up, this is a that boat aims to combine comfort, quality build and reliable blue-water passagemaking with features found on the bigger boats.
Drawn by Humphreys Yacht Design, the Oyster 495 is the first new model since Richard Hadida bought the business in 2018.
‘She’s a go-anywhere adventure machine capable of taking her owners to the four corners of the globe,’ says Hadida, for whom this first boat has been built with a huge array of extras.
Oyster 495: a new icon
Approaching the Tuborg Marina in Copenhagen to join ship for the overnight passage to Kiel, there was absolutely no mistaking this boat, whose glossy black carbon mast gave her away long before I spotted the trademark Oyster eyebrow.
Hull number one, which is on a promotional world tour lasting well into 2023, also has a bold turquoise vinyl hull wrap.

In line with recent thinking on hull shape , the Oyster 495 punches a plumb bow into the seas and carries much of her beam well aft – noticeably more so than previous models.
Such a hull form resists heeling and reduces the need for ballast.
The halyards make off to the mast and can be tensioned by winches, but must be moused to be lowered. Credit: Morten Strauch
‘With the twin rudder configuration that we have adopted as standard on all our Oyster designs since the 885 model, it provides us with more flexibility to carry a higher proportion of form stability by increasing the power of the aft hull sections,’ says naval architect Tom Humphreys.
‘This is still introduced sensitively to ensure motions and control in waves is not compromised.’
Generous accommodation
Together with the slightly higher beam and topsides compared to the 46, it creates a lot of volume below for the master cabin and extra headroom in the fo’c’sle.
As is typical for Oyster, the mast is keel-stepped. It intrudes slightly into the corridor forward, but does a better job of transferring rig forces to the keel and reduces chainplate loading.
Our test boat had the full carbon mast option from Selden with in-mast furling, and in some ways, this is a bit of an oxymoron.

The carbon mast adds nearly £100,000 to the pricetag for a big weight saving of some 200kg, but the mandrel and furling gear puts some of that weight back in.
On the other hand, it reduces the sail area by 10 per cent and prohibits the use of performance-enhancing battens.
‘You get more sailing done this way,’ explains sales director Richard Gibson, and that is a key point in a blue-water yacht.
The sail plan is designed with an efficient 54m2 jib, which can be set up for self-tacking, or remain on tracks set well inboard for good tight angles upwind.
Then there’s an attractive moulded-in bowsprit which carries two tack points for asymmetric or reaching sails, while beefy padeyes along the raised bulwarks give you heaps of options for fixing the blocks needed to run sheets and guys.
A large sprayhood, and an optional bimini or cockpit tent offer good protection from the elements. Credit: Morten Strauch
As well as push-button controls for the mast furling and outhaul, this test boat has the optional hydraulic mainsail trim.
Effectively reversing the mainsheet to be trimmed in the boom and not on deck, this clever kit was first developed by Wally superyachts.
The mainsheet is spliced to a strop on the deck behind the helm and a ram hidden in the boom does the trimming, removing trailing ropes in the cockpit.
Just the jib sheets come back to the cockpit, because all the halyards are designed to be handled at the mast.
The mainsheet control is hydraulic and hidden inside the boom. Credit: Richard Langdon
It keeps the cockpit remarkably tidy, but requires you to spend time crouched at the foot of the mast to launch or douse a reaching or running sail.
Similarly, the jib and main halyards terminate with loops over a mast fitting which is tensioned then pegged off.
As they are cut to this length with the sails hoisted, you can’t lower them in a hurry.
You need to unload the hook using a winch, then tie on the provided mousing line. Tidy, yes; practical, no.
Hunting for wind
Now, we had lamentably low wind during our test sail, and the delivery team were intent on reaching Kiel by daybreak, so we spent much of our 24 hours aboard with the motor running and the sails furled.
And here, it must be said that the boat performs very well.
At an optimal 2,300rpm, the efficient Yanmar 110hp shoved us along at 8 knots through oily calm seas, consuming 8.7 litres of diesel per hour.
That’s roughly 1 litre per nautical mile, or nearly 4 days and nights of motoring on a full tank of 800 litres.
Excellent deck stowage is located aft of the single-point mainsheet attachment. Credit: Morten Strauch
And though the engine sits in the traditional spot beneath the companionway, with the chart table to starboard and the galley to port, it is very well muffled.
Crucially for the workhorse on a blue-water cruising boat, access is possible via hatches on all four sides of the engine block, while the compartment itself offers plenty of room for additional equipment.
During two passages of moderate wind, the skipper obligingly let us set the main and jib – a slow but simple question of pressing buttons, with jib sheet winches within easy reach of the helm on the coaming.
She remained light and responsive on the helm and at one point, we clocked up a decent 5.1 knots of boat speed, fetching easily into 8 knots AWS.
Oyster is proud of its cockpit table, which contains a drinks fridge. Credit: Morten Strauch
Conditions didn’t permit much more, but polars indicate that she will perform up to about 32º true wind angle, quickly accelerating to 7 knots upwind in a 10-knot breeze.
Broad reaching with the 197 m² asymmetric, she can manage 11 knots in a blow.
Despite being resin-infused, the boat has a relatively heavy glassfibre construction and weighs in at 21 tonnes without fuel, water, food, gear or crew.
The saloon is large and extremely light thanks to the trademark deck saloon windows
Her sail area to displacement ratio of 16.1 is that of a solid offshore cruiser, while the waterline length to displacement ratio of 203 promises a little more power.
It gives her a very solid feel on the water, like her bigger siblings, but limits performance.
‘You want the boat to be the destination in a way,’ says Tom Humphreys. And like all Oysters, the 495 is just that.
The trademark raised centre cockpit means plenty of aft deck for lounging, fishing or blowing up tenders, while the seating, with its central fold-up table, is deep and well protected.
The optional cockpit tent and a bimini would be a boon for warm water or Baltic sailing .
A proper forward facing chart table is essential for ocean navigation and as a work station
Deck, rigging and underwater lighting may be a little showy for some, but do create real atmosphere. The heart of the boat, though, is its large saloon area.
Deep upholstery on either side provides space to put your feet up and relax, gather with friends, sit down for a meal around the eight-person table or even watch a movie on the pop-up TV.
Luxury styling in the cabins hasn’t made Oyster forget practicalities such as lee cloths and handholds.
The space communicates nicely with a very well-found galley to port and the chart table to starboard, and there are handrails to help you make your way everywhere.
The finish is Oyster to the core and styling has been revitalised with a new superyacht inspired look that is all geometric relief, pale wood and Nordic lamps.

ON TEST: Spirit 44e – the sustainable future of sailing?
A wooden boat that blazes a trail for modern technology and sustainability sounds too good to be true. Theo Stocker…
First look: Southerly 42 – bluewater beauty
There are few high-end bluewater cruising yachts that can boast a draught of just 84cm (3ft). While this increases to…
One step too far
If I had one criticism of this otherwise spotless interior, it would be the number of little level changes that connect the spaces.
We counted 12 steps in total, besides the companionway.
While they maximise the volume, they also present a tripping risk.
The hull form includes a plumb bow to stretch waterline length, and carries its beam well aft, controlled by twin rudders. Credit: Brian Carlin
One of the reasons for these steps is clear: the saloon sole is raised somewhat in order to create space for the tankage beneath, as well as enjoy the views from the deckhouse windows.
And there, at least, the benefit is overwhelming, because you can easily inspect each tank, as well as the batteries and other equipment.
Custom joinery adapts the galley storage to your crockery and glassware.
The galley of the Oyster 495 is well laid out for use at sea
Standard is a four-burner hob and oven from GN Espace, side opening boat fridge plus an optional freezer and microwave.
Another highlight is the huge chart table.
There are those that scoff at the waste of space in a digital age, but anyone undertaking blue-water cruising knows the value of this space.

B&G instruments are the standard choice. The main interfaces are touchscreen displays that drive C-Zone digital switching , but key kit still features two-pole manual switches.
‘We wanted to introduce tech into the boat, but we had to make sure that if something breaks down mid-ocean you could fix it,’ explains Gibson.
Down steps aft, the owner’s cabin is clearly inspired by the big Oysters.
The engine compartment is well insulated and has ample space for a genset and other systems. Credit: Morten Strauch
The island bed measures 140cm across and features an elaborate fabric headboard that shows off the new styling to maximum effect.
There’s the option of a huge TV on the forward bulkhead, plus a vanity table and a sofa.
A luxurious ensuite heads features a separate shower, reached – you’ve guessed it – down another step.
The second cabin lies in the fo’c’sle and it runs to another good sized semi-island bed.
The boat remains a medium-heavy displacement cruiser, but the new hull shape adds extra performance. Credit: Richard Langdon
Having shared this space overnight with the photographer, I can attest to the comfort, and the natural light.
There is a third cabin to starboard with a pair of useful bunks, sharing the forward heads and shower. Finish quality is, as you’d expect, excellent.
In the end, Oyster has been ambitious in trying to squeeze in the features of its larger boats onto this design.
But it has been a successful project and, even as we hove in sight of Kiel’s green approaches, it was all too easy to imagine settling in and heeding the call of the high seas.
Verdict on the Oyster 495
New focus from Oyster and some modern hull design courtesy of Humphreys have given the Oyster 495 a modest performance boost and some welcome contemporary features.
However, she remains very true to Oyster’s keystone values of safety, seaworthiness and comfort. And in that sense, at least, she is not a radical boat.
Her layout, too, would be familiar to an Oyster 49 owner from 2001.

There’s plenty of technology here – digital switching, plotters galore, good AV options and hydraulic sail controls. But it is not dressed up to be flashy.
The boat is solid, well-built and beautifully finished. She is easy to handle, capable and well organised.
Our only misgivings were about the less-than-easy halyard handling, and reliance on hydraulics for sail trim.
It’s all very neat, but is that really the priority for blue-water cruising?
As to whether she represents the world’s best 50ft blue-water yacht, time will tell, but with 16 boats sold off plan, some buyers clearly think so.
Would the Oyster 495 suit you and your crew?
Oysters are the stuff of dreams, and the new 495 is no exception.
If money were no object, and it needs not to be for this boat (our tricked-out test boat cost £1.6m ex-VAT or £1.92m inc VAT), then this is a vessel custom made to fulfil blue-water cruising hopes.
She would best suit a family with a steady flow of visiting friends, or a mix of older and younger kids.
The integral bowsprit on the Oyster 495 facilitates the setting of various offwind sails to maintain passage speeds. Credit: Brian Carlin
The disparity between the aft and fo’c’sle cabins rules out a project involving two couples.
She would also work well with a couple and some paid hands, although the ease of sail control and trim makes her perfectly viable for sailing solo or two-up.
There’s no reason that you couldn’t take the 495 up Britain’s rivers and estuaries, with her 2.28m draught and option for a 1.83m shoal keel.
But a boat of this capability demands to cover miles.
Sail round Britain , up to Svalbard , round the Mediterranean or around the world – the boat could undoubtedly handle it all with aplomb – but make sure you’re stretching her legs.

10 Best Sailboat Brands (And Why)
There's no denying that sailors are certainly a passionate bunch. We’re so passionate about our boats that we always try going for the best sailboats. To make it a lot easier for you, here are the best sailboat brands.
Owning a sailboat is an indulgence that many of us only dream about but very few ever have the privilege of sailing the seas in what they can actually call their own.
While there's nothing wrong with renting a sailboat, the honor of owning one is certain what many sailors dream of.
With a perfectly crafted sailboat as company, gliding through the water, waves, and wind brings some sort of unmatched comfort and peace.
Add this to the fact that sailing takes you far away from the daily hustles and bustles that we've become accustomed to in our daily lives and you'll see why the life of sailing is very appealing to the masses.
But without a proper sailboat, all this fun and the good life of sailing are thrown out of the window.
Contrary to the widespread opinion, owning a sailboat isn't beyond anyone's reach. It's something that we can all achieve. But before getting into that, it's important to know some of the best sailboat brands.
The best sailboat brands will make your life as a sailor a lot easier and more fun. The best sailboat brands have, for decades if not centuries, mastered the art of woodworking. They've dedicated their skills and immense amount of their time to designing and manufacturing nothing but the best quality of sailboats in the industry.
So if you've been looking for the best sailboat brands from all over the world, you've come to the right place. We'll discuss the best of the best, something that will give you a perfect getaway from your normal life.

Must-Have Features for Your Sailboat
Before highlighting the best sailboat brands, it would be appropriate to jog your mind a little with some of the features that must be available in your sailboat.
Choosing a sailboat can sometimes be a matter of compromises. In other words, it's sometimes sensible to accept that a sailboat cannot have all the features that you desire.
As such, it's all about going with a sailboat that has the features that matter to you most.
For this reason, let's look at the most basic features that can make the difference in both safety and comfort while improving your sailing experience.
A Safe and Comfortable Sailing Cockpit
You'll most definitely be spending a huge amount of time in the cockpit. Whether you're keeping watch, trimming sails , helming, or just enjoying the scenery, there's no better place to do all these than from the cockpit. That being said, a good cockpit should have the following.
Have a good depth for safety reasons and adequate drainage
Should give you a quick and easy access to jammers, cleats, and other important parts of the winch system
Should have a seat or seats that are about 35 cm high, 50 to 55 cm wide to provide ideal support
The seats should be adjustable to offer maximum comfort and allow you to change your position
GPS Chartplotter
Use a GPS Chartplotter once and your sailing will never be the same without it. It not only allows you to map a course but is also a great way of ensuring that your sailboat exactly follows that course. It also gives you constant updates on ocean conditions, weather conditions , and potential hazards such as deadly currents and sandbars.
A GPS Chartplotter is also an important safety device that can help you in some very critical situations while out there on the water.
For instance, it has a man-overboard button that is essentially meant to allow you to receive coordinates of the exact location should someone fall off your boat.
Electric Winch System
This is an amazing addition to any sailboat. It allows you to sheet a jib even in high and strong winds with a simple press of a button. It also gives you the chance of trimming a mainsail easily while still carry out other essential tasks in the sailboat.
An electric winch system can be of great importance, especially if you're short on crew. This is because it can free up some crew members to carry other important tasks. In other words, it can make duties that would otherwise require more crew members a lot easier.
More importantly, an electric winch system can maintain safety even in the roughest of conditions, thereby preventing you and your crew from getting injured. In essence, an electric winch system will make your sailing a lot safer, less stressful, and more enjoyable.
Reverse Osmosis Watermaker
This is a very valuable accessory, especially if you're going on long sea voyages. You can spend days on end without drinking clean and safe water.
As the name suggests, you can use this accessory to turn seawater into purified drinking water. It uses the reverse osmosis method that's essential not only in removing bacteria and parasites from the water but also in turning the water into purified and safe drinking water.
Even though this device is pricey, it's a great way to mitigate the over-reliance on huge water tanks. All you have to do is to ensure that it's properly maintained and you'll have an endless streak of safe drinking water no matter where you are.
Wide and Clutter-free Deck
While the deck is often an overlooked feature of a sailboat, it can be the difference between a great sailing experience and a stressful one. In essence, the deck of a sailboat should be wide enough and clutter-free.
This is significant as it can enable you to quickly access different parts of your sailboat with hindrance or getting tangled. As you can see, this is particularly important in improving safety and reducing stress.
With that in mind, make sure that the deck is organized in such a way that you can have easy access to sails, masts, and winches.
You should, therefore, avoid sailboats with decks that are designed in such a way that you have to climb on top of the cabin just to access these features. Needless to say, this can be quite unstable and very dangerous especially when conditions are rough.

Discover Charleston CHARLESTON IS YOUR OYSTER: 5 BEST OYSTER BARS IN TOWN
Whether you’re a longtime oyster aficionado or are falling in love with them for the first time, you’ll notice right away that oysters from different regions have distinct flavors. Unlike most delicacies, oysters don’t get their flavors from a sauce or seasoning, they develop their unique salty brine from their environment. The coastal waters surrounding Charleston SC have their own ecosystem and produce oysters with a flavor that you won’t find anywhere else. For the freshest oysters, best variety, and enjoyable atmosphere, you’ll want to visit these 5 local oyster bars when you’re in the Holy City:
Leon’s Oyster Shop An old school body shop turned casually sophisticated oyster & poultry spot, Leon’s has earn itself a James Beard nomination and a reputation for some of the best oysters in town. Designed with the comfort and ease of southern living in mind, the restaurant serves up flavorful oysters three ways (raw, fried, or Oysters Casino) alongside lowcountry staples including fried chicken and black-eyed pea salad. The casual yet intimate dining space, tasty menu, and variety of oysters are all topped off with a dessert of soft serve & sprinkles on Upper King Street.
Pearlz Oyster Bar This self-acclaimed “eclectic little oyster bar” in West Ashley or on downtown Charleston’s famed East Bay Street, offers a full raw bar with local and Gulf oysters and locally caught seafood. With oyster options from oyster sliders to southern fried, or even oyster shooters, you really can’t go wrong. Their full bar provides crafty cocktails, cold beers, and a lively environment.
Bowen’s Island Popular with Charleston locals, you could miss this gem if you don’t turn down the right dirt road on your way to Folly Beach. This authentic lowcountry oyster joint overlooks the water on a 13-acre island and serves up some of the best locally harvested oysters in town! Steamed or fried, you can get your local oyster clusters in full or half trays and shuck them like a local from any of the decks or event spaces. More than just oysters, the menu includes fried shrimp platters, homemade hushpuppies, and their take a on a lowcountry boil, Frogmore stew.
The Darling Oyster Bar Charleston charm meets vintage chic in this popular local oyster bar in downtown Charleston. Located in a restored 115-year-old storefront on King Street, its bright green booths give it the feel of a diner that might have operated in the same space 60 years ago. With a full 14-seat raw bar, The Darling offers 6 different types of oysters, both local and from afar, king crab, ceviche and more. The perfect spot for weekend brunch, serving up Shrimp & Grits, Lobster & King Crab Roll, and Chowder Fries (made with local clams).
The Ordinary A Southern seafood hall and oyster bar with a commitment to support local and regional fishermen, crabbers, oystermen, farmers and producers. The sophisticated atmosphere in a restored, historic bank building reflects an upscale menu which features Smoked Mahe Pate, Vermillion Snapper, and their speciality, Oyster Moscow (a raw oyster topped with creme fraiche and caviar with a splash of vodka). Taste some of the best raw East Coast oysters with all the accoutrements, or crispy oysters with steak tartare, or even smoked oysters with hot sauce. Any way you slice it, The Ordinary is anything but that when it comes to local oysters and seafood.
Local lore says, ” you should only eat oysters in months with the letter “R,” so help yourselves to all the oysters you can eat from September through April but take a break from them May through August.” While it’s true that “oyster season” used to be considered just the colder winter months, thanks to local oyster farmers working to support Charleston’s booming culinary scene, locals and visitors alike can now shuck locally harvested oysters year round.
If you’re planning a trip to Charleston and you want to put oysters on the menu, our concierge team can make a reservation at any of these local restaurants, or even arrange a private oyster roast for friends & family at any of our luxury vacation rentals. That’s about as classic lowcountry as you can get!

Tapas like dishes. Raw Oysters etc. We started with some oysters . Their mignonette sauce (red wine and another, both delicious.) They had an Oyster Moscow which was raw oyster with creme fraiche and caviar on top with a splash of vodka. Good to try, but won't need to have them again, vodka completely overwhelmed the taste. Server was Brice, knowledgable and very attentive. She explained anything we had questions on. We had a bunch of smaller dishes to share; started with Ceviche, which i think was the best of them all. We then had a lump crab crudo, that was good, but really not large enough to share between 3 people. We had a crabmeat that was served on a piece of sourdough, which was delicious as well. We had the baked oysters with bacon and parmesan, Yummay. We had a hot scallop dish, which was also good but overly salted. We had the tartar with the crispy oyster , and that was also slightly salty. Place was not inexpensive, but they did a beautiful job converting an old bank and the service and food was on par with expense. Will be back next time i come down.

This is my favorite Charleston experience so far. Loved the selection of oysters , and the presentation. The oyster Moscow was addictive. Somewhere between calling us to confirm the reservation, and the moment we walked in the door, my reservation was cancelled. Still found a spot for us and the overall experience was a winner.

FAAAAANCY! We are ballers on a budget, so we only stopped in for drinks and an appetizer. We ordered 4 drinks, one soup, a dozen oysters , and three Oyster Moscow's. The tab was a little over $100. I ordered the Echo, Echo, which is a gin drink. I loved it! Another in our group ordered a drink that tasted like fall. We were served oysters from four different regions, which were lovely, but we weren't enough of oyster connoisseurs to appreciate them. The Oysters Moscow are served with caviar and Stoli vodka. They were interesting. The soup was delightful! Maybe one day we'll go back and order the three-tier seafood platter as it looked amazing.
