Known for supreme craftsmanship combining traditional skills and advanced technology, the company's hand-built cruisers are the blue water sailing kind, able to go anywhere and withstand the elements' sternest tests.

Growing awareness of climate change has also boosted interest in the brand's wind-power credentials.

"By its nature Oyster is sustainable and we are committed to becoming the world's most sustainable yacht business. By 2030 we are aiming to introduce an entirely self-sufficient yacht, including hybrid propulsion with solar power," explains chief executive Ashley Highfield.

Unique features such as its signature deck saloon, which creates a lighter interior so seascapes unfold through triple windows, have long made Oyster a favourite.
