Oyster Marine as they are called, was founded in England, in 1973.
Transferring design, project management, finance and technical services from Oyster’s headquarters in Ipswich to the Norfolk site in late 2012, the newly merged team starts another chapter in the company’s history. They build luxury sailing cruisers. I took them in order from the site: 475, 545, 575, 625, 665, 725, 745, 825, 885, 100, 115, 125
