Broker's Comments

Boatshed Southampton are pleased to present to market this 1986 Oyster Heritage 37.

This well-founded long-distance cruiser appears fully set up for serious sailing. She has excellent sea-keeping abilities and also benefits from a well laid out cockpit, good sails, windvane steering and plenty of equipment on board.

These boats don't come onto our books very often as only 32 were made and they have a good status in the world of blue-water cruisers. Yachting World once wrote, “she is closer to my ideal cruising yacht than any other boat on the market.”

This yacht is designed and built for passage making and the layout and ample locker space reflect this. The forward cabin can be either two singles or a double berth with stowage. The heads are to port with a good sized shower and locker space. Moving aft to the main saloon, which is a large comfortable space, can sleep one double and one single and has a large saloon table.

The galley is to starboard with a Neptune cooker, two burner hob, grill and oven as well as a fridge.

The Nav station has a full-size chart table and instrumentation/fuse panel. This area of the yacht can be closed off to incorporate the aft cabin.

The vessel has hot and cold pressurised water system and an Eberspacher warm air heating overhauled in 2019.

These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
