Oyster OM43 2009 with twin Cummins 480 HP diesel engines on shafts to Hamilton jets with mouse control. This is a rare opportunity to purchase one of four vessels in existence. The Oyster OM43 offers 4 berths in two cabins with a generous saloon and cockpit all on one level through the boat to the helm.
Taking inspiration from the classic good looks of the pilot launches and patrol boats of the post war years, the OM43 was conceived following demand from a number of Oyster sailing yacht owners who were looking for a fast and elegant motor yacht with the attention to detail and build quality that matched their existing Oyster.
Beyond her timeless exterior, the OM43 is a thoroughly modern motor cruiser with twin jet drives which reduce the draft to just 68 centimetres and obviate the need for propellers or rudders. Close quarters handling is a delight as the OM43 can be manoeuvred using a conventional wheel and throttles or via a joystick or mouse. Her Cummins 480hp turbo diesels provide the power to achieve 30 knots at wide open throttle and cruise effortlessly at 22 knots.
The accommodation is elegant and simple, with a large and spacious cockpit aft leading into a comfortable saloon. The OM43 has the benefit of two guest cabins, one large forward double island berth with a second large double berth that converts into twin berths when required, while aft of the helm position is a large and spacious linear galley. The head/shower is located to starboard with a large shower compartment and separate heads.
Cora has been in the same ownership since she was launched in 2009. She has been cruised locally, maintained regardless of cost and presents in first-class condition. Cora has always been maintained by one of the ex-broom employees that actually built her back in 2009.
Early viewing highly recommended!
Manufacturer Provided Description
The Oyster motor yacht range brings a fresh approach to powerboat design from Britain's leading yacht builder. Combining traditional craftsmanship with modern design and technology, they have created a motor yacht with an emphasis on performance, comfort and seaworthiness, qualities that Oyster owners have come to expect from any yacht bearing the Oyster marque. Oyster motor yachts are about good times afloat, whether dining alfresco in the cockpit, enjoying a candlelit dinner in the enclosed saloon or a cruise with family and friends. The Oyster OM43 takes the proven hull design of the LD43 to the next level with a twin cabin interior, she is sure to become a future classic. The OM43 driven by the proven Hamilton water jets with their unique MouseBoat control system gives the 43 unsurpassed manoeuvrability at slow speed and allows her to dry out for a beach party. The absence of propellers offer opportunities for shallow water exploring and extra safety around bathers.
