OYSTER YACHTS
2014/2022 Oyster Yachts 85ft
Looking for a blue-water cruiser with real pedigree? Meet CHAMPAGNE HIPPY—a standout Oyster 825, engineered for long-range adventures. MCA-classed and coded, EU VAT paid, she’s ready for private escapes or charter and comes fully equipped for both. Extensively refitted in 2018–2019 and again in 2022, she boasts a new mast, rigging, sails, a refreshed interior, and major engineering upgrades.
Her optional extended transom adds a spacious aft deck, generous interior volume, and an impressive beach club with ample storage. The beach club is easily accessed via a transforming ladder/hydraulic passerelle or internal deck steps—safe even under sail. With a length of 82’5” (26.2m) and a 3.5m draft, she’s built for ocean crossings, effortlessly achieving 250nm days under sail. Her track record is proven: she completed the ARC transatlantic in just 15 days, finishing 13th overall and becoming the first Oyster to cross the line.
