Additional Information

The Oyster 56 'Liberty' is a superb example of Oyster's most successful Oyster 56 series and fully equipped for long distance offshore sailing. Her experienced owners have maintained the boat well and added extra upgrades such as wind generators and solar panels to make her even more self-reliant. All navigation systems have been upgraded in 2017 - 2022.

Liberty, originally named 'Avolore,' was built in 2002 and is the 25th example of Oyster's iconic model. The current owners are the fourth owners who purchased her in 2017 through YachtSalesInternational.com. They spent four years updating the boat, learning her systems and finding their sea legs in preparation for their 2022-2023 Oyster World Rally around-the-world cruise. After completing their journey in March 2023, Liberty returned to Annapolis and now awaits her new owners who would like to enjoy the cruising lifestyle and endless adventures as they sail offshore.

Liberty is a proven offshore cruising boat, sensibly priced and ideally equipped for anyone planning on short-handed sailing on either long distant offshore or coastal cruising passages. With a wealth of updated equipment and plenty of spare parts on board, Liberty is ready to put to sea again. If you are planning your next adventure in the near future, Liberty should be on the top of your list.

Oyster Yachts announce Oyster World Rally 2028-2029

Oyster Yachts has announced the Oyster World Rally 2028-2029. The 16-month event will see a fleet of 30 yachts embark on a fully-supported circumnavigation of the world. Entries open on 18 June 2024.

When the journey is complete, the yachts will have sailed 27,000 nautical miles and made 27 stopovers. The rally begins in Antigua, with Tahiti, Cairns, Grenada and an extended stopover in Cape Town for New Year's celebrations also on the agenda.

All entrants will receive 24/7 logistical, technical and administrative support and pre-rally training courses in coral reef navigation, diving, meteorology and how to navigate the Panama Canal transit, to name a few. They will also be provided with berthing and mooring arrangements at key destinations.

"Go for it! Life's way too short. Even if you think you can't do it, you can do it," said Susan White, owner of the Oyster 625 Makara . "With the right preparation, the right boat and the right attitude, you can definitely figure it all out."

The Oyster World Rally 2024-2025 is currently underway.
