Reputable Oyster 485 Bluewater Passage Maker
A lot of boats use the term 'Bluewater' loosely. Oyster Yachts is not one of those builders. Discerning buyers looking for a solidly built platform for extended passage making, even around the world voyages, will know what the Oyster name evokes.
Reputable Oyster 485 Bluewater Passage Maker
A lot of boats use the term 'Bluewater' loosely. Oyster Yachts is not one of those builders. Discerning buyers looking for a solidly built platform for extended passage making, even around the world voyages, will know what the Oyster name evokes.
With a build quality second to none, each being individually custom built, the Oyster Yachts' hulls are designed and engineered to take you anywhere, safely. They are laid up to Lloyds design specification and feature a heavy displacement hull with Single skin hull construction, which eliminates the need for a balsa or foam core and allows for repairs to be made easily.
The 485 features a very roomy and functional 3 cabin + 2 head layout with plenty of natural light from the deck saloon windows. A convenient crew quarters cabin with double bunks is a useful space for crew, or can easily be converted to excess storage or a laundry room. Featuring a sizable Galley with ample counter top space and plenty of holds for cooking during passage. The master stateroom abounds with storage and comfort with an island queen bed, as well as a separate shower stall in the aft head.
Ushuaia is sloop rigged with in-mast furling which makes short handed sailing a breeze. An inner forestay has been added for flying a storm jib.
This Oyster 485 comes nicely equipped with key cruising equipment including:
- Water maker
- Bow thruster
- 6kw generator
- Self steering wind vane
- SSB radio with modem
- Heavy duty stainless davits
- AB 11' foot hard bottom dinghy with 9.9hp outboard
- Dual alternators
- 3 bladed feathering Variprop with rope cutter on shaft
- Two A/C and Reverse Cycle heat units
- Skeg-hung rudder and keel stepped mast
As rare as they are to come by, this opportunity doesn't exist often. If you're planning to liveaboard, long distance cruise to faraway places or, maybe even join an Oyster World rally, don't miss your chance to own a legendary boat for a fraction of the cost new. Please call to arrange a viewing today.

The Genoa is a Doyle D4 Aramid high performance offshore cruising sail that was purchased in 2007. This type of sail is designed to maintain great shape right up until the end of its life.
The Main Sail, while not original has done a lot of nautical miles. It's still capable but needs servicing. The primary power/pull for this boat, from discussing it with sailmakers, is the genoa.
Storm Jib and Trysail very lightly used and stored on board
Spinnaker - Parasailor - purchased in 2007 only used during sea trials. The Sail is stored in Newport. All of the blocks and lines have also never been used other than the for the sea trial and are stored at home. The spinnaker pole which was purchased in 2007 isn’t used for the Parasailor, it was added to pole out the Genoa.
Working Jib - Purchased in 2007 from Doyle and like new. This sail is hanked-on to the removable inner forestay. It’s a high aspect sail and was designed to be used offshore during sustained periods of high winds, of 30-35kts or more, but not at the point of needing the Storm Jib. Essentially to provide better shape in strong winds then a heavily furled Genoa and also to prolong the life of the Genoa.

The Oyster 485 is a well-proportioned yacht that looks good from any angle and offers a combination of excellent performance, ease of handling, and real comfort. Like all Oysters the 485 features a deck saloon configuration creating a light, airy saloon and unbeatable ventilation. The 485 is well proven as a blue water cruiser, with numerous ocean crossings and at least one circumnavigation to her credit. The 485 has a low center of gravity, high performance bulb keel, and a fully-protected skeg-hung rudder. Performance was demonstrated in an Olympic triangle race during Antigua Race Week, when two 485s led the fleet and showed tremendous speed, particularly to windward. The standard sloop rig is set up with a conventional spar with a fully-battened mainsail and lazy jacks for ease of handling. The majority of these yachts have been fitted with in-mast furling, which enables all sail handling functions to be undertaken from the cockpit. For performance-orientated sailors whose cruising area is away from the boisterous trade winds of the Caribbean we also offer a sport rig with taller sailplan, which is ideal for cruising areas where light airs predominate. The Oyster 485 has a spacious owner's stateroom aft featuring a centerline berth which makes the cabin feel light and airy, particularly in warm climates. This stateroom also incorporates a large head within which is a separate stall shower. Forward there's the usual Oyster-type "walkthrough" galley, which is ideally located within easy reach of the cockpit and saloon. Both sides of the galley incorporate counter space and ventilation is assured with a number of adjacent opening ports. The saloon uses the yacht's maximum beam to good effect and incorporates a pair of oversized opening hullports for use while at anchor or dock, which allow good athwartships ventilation. In addition, really good fore and aft ventilation is offered by the deck saloon with its two opening forward windows. The saloon table incorporates a "clam" type design so it can be used in the small size, closed position, typically for drinks or informal gatherings. The table then opens, to provide a much larger surface for dining, by means of an ingenious pair of additional leaves that unfold from underneath when the table is opened from its "clam" position. The yacht's forward accommodation offers a choice of a standard arrangement with a twin, upper - lower berth cabin offset to port, and a twin or double vee berth cabin forward. There is also a head with an integral shower offset to starboard. As an alternative we also offer an optional variant with only one double cabin forward, to suit those owners looking for a yacht with just two cabins, but offering a very high standard of comfort, comparable to the owner's stateroom, for two guests. On deck right aft there is a large size lazarette locker and adjacent propane gas cylinder locker, so that all the usual cruising amenities have suitable stowage. At the end of the aft coachroof there is a pair of large bin lockers with enough space to house a life raft and other safety equipment on one side, with more than enough room for fenders, docklines, and other gear that needs to be kept to hand when sailing. The stern platform has a folding bathing - safety ladder and provides an ideal place to board the yacht from a dinghy. It also houses an optional flush mounted locker for a hot and cold freshwater deck shower.
