oyster 855 yacht

This 90-foot luxurious sailing yacht features its own towboat and is on sale for over $5 million. Take a look inside.

• We went onboard a $5 million luxury sailboat at a showcase in London.
• The Oyster 885 comes with its own tow boat, four bedrooms, and private crew quarters.
• Dan Wurzbacher, head of Oyster sales, said customers can personalize the yacht, which ups the price.

The Oyster 885, a $5 million sailing yacht, was showcased at a luxury boat event in central London. The yacht was built by British boat builder, Oyster.

The particular model at the London Luxury Afloat show was called "Clare." The owner was ready to sell the yacht after owning it for under 10 years.

The Oyster 885 is the biggest yacht that the company builds. It comes with four bedrooms that all have ensuites, as well as lounge spaces, a kitchen, crew quarters, and entertaining space on the top deck.

At the front of the deck, there's even a tow boat which carries passengers from shore to the yacht.

Dan Wurzbacher, US head of Oyster sales, told Insider that the base price of the Oyster 885 was $5 million but customers can personalize the yacht via options list, which increases the price.

Customers have the option to choose different layouts, colors, and materials for the exterior and interior design of the yacht, Wurzbacher said.

One of the most popular features of the yacht is the hydraulic folding bathing platforms that allow people to swim off the back of the yacht, Wurzbacher said.

Wurzbacher said the most common type of the customer the company sees buying the yachts is entrepreneurial.

This was the main lounge area inside the yacht. The glass sunroof let a lot of light into the space.

This lounge can substitute for a bedroom because the sofas pull out to become beds.

The crew members cook for the guests in the kitchen, which was very narrow.

Crew members can get access to the engine room through the kitchen to check up on the operations of the yacht.

The crew members sleep in an extremely narrow room on bunkbeds.

The most senior crew members or the captain sleeps in a slightly bigger room which has an ensuite.

The guest bedrooms are more spacious — one offers a double bed while the other room has a double bed. Both had private toilets.

The master bedroom, the largest room on the yacht, has a desk, a sofa next to the window, and a private toilet. Wurzbacher said another top feature for customers was the triple vertical seascape windows.

The master bedroom's toilet was far more spacious than the other toilets onboard and had a good amount of storage too.

Purchasing a yacht like the Oyster 885 "tends to be one of these things where... all your life events have to line up to be able to do something like this," Wurzbacher said, adding that it depends on finance, business, health and free time to use the boat.

Sail in Style: The New Oyster 885 Series II

Few experiences are more exhilarating than riding the waves on a luxurious sailing yacht. It is the perfect way to visit all corners of the globe, embrace the outdoors, and escape the stresses of daily life. Of course, it takes exceptional engineering and design to tackle the seas and place the whole world at your fingertips. Yet, Oyster Yachts has done it again with their new 90-foot  bluewater  sailing yacht, which promises uncompromising performance. Find out more about the new Oyster 885 Series II.

What to Expect

Launched in 2020, the Oyster 885 Series II offers luxurious living spaces, ample entertaining areas on deck, and unrivaled engineering, which will provide a smooth, stress-free experience to  different corners of the globe .

Buyers can also take their pick of different layouts to match their needs. For instance, the standard layout provides four en-suite double guest cabins, as well as separate crew quarters to help owners maintain their privacy.

Less Red Tape

Larger yachts will need to adhere to many regulations, which you will likely want to avoid. As the Oyster 885 Series II comes in at under 90 feet, and it is below the 24m Load Line Rule, you will experience less red tape while enjoying all the benefits of a large yacht. It is an ideal option for those who want to turn their yacht into a charter when they aren’t sailing their way across the world.

Handcrafted Quality

Oyster Yachts  has been designing and building comfortable, luxurious yachts for more than 47 years. While no two of their yachts are the same, they each offer impeccable designs, technologies, and engineering that will impress every customer.

Every yacht built is handcrafted using the skills, knowledge, and experience the Oyster Yachts’ team has gained throughout the decades. It’s for this reason why you cannot help but be wowed by the quality of the materials, the impressive attention to detail, and the exhilarating performance of their new luxury sailing yacht.

A Sociable Home Away from Home

Few sailboats can compare to Oyster 885 Series II when it comes to comfort, safety, and performance. As it is designed for extended living periods, an owner and their guests can enjoy a spacious, comfortable, and flexible design, which will provide a luxurious home away from home. 

For example, guests can enjoy all-around views of the sea when relaxing on the large, spacious, and safe cockpit, which features an integrated refrigerator, eight comfortable seats, and a fold-out table. It is ideal for all occasions, from relaxed lunches to drinks and dinner with friends.

There are also many additional entertaining spaces to enjoy across the yacht. The sunken foredeck tender well is ideal as a chillout area, while the aft deck offers plenty of room for a spot of  sunbathing . The saloon table down below is also the perfect space for a dinner party, as it can comfortably seat ten people, and the table will convert into a comfortable, spacious daybed.

The countdown has begun for the new ICE 66 rs

Restaurant-Yacht Chaika

Ratings and reviews, location and contact.

Pleasantly surprised, service is good so is the food. Great selection of Fusion food, a mixture of Italian, Japanese, European, Asian etc. A pleasantly nice dining experience, highly recommended, a must try!

Thank you for your feedback and invite you to have lunch or dinner again aboard the ship in an atmosphere of high standards of yacht hospitality.

everything was perfect - the food, the service, the desserts were the best, nice atmosphere and the location - magical

Best food, best view in Moscow. absolutely faultless from arrival to finish. Best risotto i had for many years absolutely perfectly cooked. The view on Ukrainian hotel and the white house by night is amazing

Had to wait for the food for 1.5 hours and then another 20 minutes for the check. Finally called for the manager and he offered... a 10% discount as a compensation. Simply pathetic! The food is mediocre at best. Not bad per se, but one... would expect something better considering the prices. There are many places to eat in area that are much better. Avoid this one at all costs. More

Hello, Alexander Your comment is extremely important for us, thank you a lot for it. We are terribly sorry for your time that you`ve spent waiting your order and we have already taken actions to improve quality of our service and it would be realy... More

Food is very expensive,very pretentious, doesn't worth that money. Portions are very small. We ordered ravioli and there were 4! Four raviolis! For almost 15 euros. Then we asked to bring us dessert menu but nothing, they didn't even bothered, so we payed and left... without dessert. Very poor service for that price. More

This is a very good restaurant. The food is really good, maybe the best in Moscow. The service is also good. The view from the restaurant is great. The prices are very high.

I often visit this restaurant and must say it’s one of the best in Moscow in terms of quality and service. Staff really try hard to make sure that you are happy and satisfied. Customer service is a huge problem in Moscow but Chaika sets... a great example for others in the industry! Food is delicious and the menu has lots of options for everyone! Atmosphere is great and view is beautiful on the embankment. Special thanks to German & Oleg! More

Thank you for your feedback! Again aboard the yacht restaurant "Chaika" in accordance with the high standards of yacht hospitality.

Highly recommended, great location in the city center of Moscow with a superb atmosphere. Too many menu choices, though all delicious!

Thx a lot for your review! We are looking forward to see you in our restaurants.

Visited this lovely restaurant with a friend of mine. It was relaxingly warm August evening - so the place on the river seemed like a good idea. We came quite early and the restaurant was not full. The hostesses kindly offered several places to sit... and we chose to sit on the sofas. We had some wine, which was good. We struggled a bit when deciding about the food as few options (scallops) were not available. Fish on ice on display did not look very fresh. To be honest it was an unusually hot August and it is probably understandable that some see food options were not available. However, we did manage to order something and sat waiting and looking onto the river. My long-legged friend struggled sitting at the low sofa and the manager noticed that, offering as a very good, proper table beside the open window. It was nice touch and I was very pleased by their polite observations and immediate reaction to solve the problem. Food was quite good and presentation was perfect. Perhaps I can something about the food, but 1 visit is not enough to criticize or make a definitive opinion. Overall, quality place, which of course, does not come cheap. I would recommend this restaurant without hesitation. More

Good afternoon! Thank you for your detailed feedback! We are looking forward to seeing you again, we are sure that you will be delighted with our dishes!

I've been here several times during two business trip in Moscow. The overall quality for both service and food is absolutely top-notch, plus the location is very unique.

Hello! Thank you for your feedback! We are looking forward to visiting again!

Located on a boat at Krasnopresenskaya River Bank this 5 Star Restaurant transforms into a party location due to multiple groups hosting events. Impressive wine selection, Asian and European kitchen...

Thx a lot! We are waiting for you!

It is a nice place to gather specially at the lounge The service and staff very good I like the river view The food is almost like all restaurants in Russia they serve different cuisine. Staring Russian appetizer till Asian dishes Presentation and taste amazing... I consider it overpriced little bit More

Good location. Nice views. Good choice of food and drinks. European and Asian menu. Nice service. Pricey enough.

Had a large group dinner here. Food was above average and service quite good. The real attraction is the view of Moscow from the river on a nice night. Great place for a larger group dinner. More

Hello, John We are really pleased by reading that you and your friends were satisfied by our service, client`s experience is the highest value for us. We will be happy to see you again, come and enjoy some new dishes from our chef and nice... More

The luxurious atmosphere of this place, the view and the location make it quite outstanding. We had dinner here with friends and the dishes were amazing, accompanied by a chilled bottle of Chablis, it really made me feel as if it was a part of... the classic Russian movie. More

Oyster’s 885SII stylish new deck layout ticks all the boxes

This popular 90 foot bluewater sailing yacht undergoes a restyling reflecting desire for more on-board entertainment space with oyster’s trademark stylish low-profile deck saloon..

The new Oyster 885SII may be the same overall length as the popular Oyster 885SI, but she offers a different on-water profile thanks to her revised deck layout.  With a restyled sleeker deck saloon and extended bow sprit, the 885SII’s styling is consistent with the rest of the Oyster fleet.  Beyond her stunning looks, the primary benefit is more space for onboard entertaining, with a larger cockpit area and dinghy well which doubles as a chillout area, perfect for relaxing or taking in a film under the stars.

The cockpit will seat ten comfortably and features a multifunction table with integrated drinks refrigerator, audio and mood lighting. The larger dinghy well can house a more powerful 5m jet RIB, ideal for watersports, as well as shore transfers. The dinghy well converts seamlessly into a day or night chillout zone, with sun shade, audio and vision. In addition, the large hydraulic bathing platform offers great access to the water and a further area for sunbathing, dining or relaxing.

Below decks, the 885SII features Oyster’s new generation contemporary styling. With a variety of customisable options, she offers six luxury cabins, with four double ensuites and separate crew quarters. The interior styling comes in a choice of wood finishes, all meticulously crafted to the highest exacting standards by Oyster’s master crafts people.

The light and spacious interior saloon comfortably seats ten guests. She is equipped with a variety of convenient and connected tech from infotainment systems, wireless audio, through to sophisticated mood lighting, WIFI and enhanced navigations systems.

Built to exacting Lloyds Register certification, this is the first Series II featuring the restyled deck - the initial two 885SII hulls featured the raised saloon style deck which provides an alternative saloon layout.

The 885SII offers all the benefits of a 90ft yacht but comes in just below the 24m Load Line Rule, which removes much of the red tape required for a larger yacht. With safety and assurance paramount – and with two of the brand-new Oyster 885SIIs embarking on the Oyster World Rally 2024-25.

“We’re delighted to see the new 885SII deck styling on the water,” says Oyster CEO, Ashley Highfield. “This flagship 90 foot length offers the ultimate in luxurious onboard living and entertainment, combined with finger-tip control twin rudders and sail plan for exhilarating and fast sailing, and with the option of centreboard keel enabling owners to explore shallow cruising grounds and idyllic anchorages.”
