Her deck reads like it was drawn for an ocean crossing, because it was.
Twin wing helm seats sit outboard for a commanding view forward and aft, while a fixed, solar fitted bimini shades the cockpit on passage without the clutter of a folding frame. Forward, a tender well doubles as a sun lounge when the tender itself is away, and a twin access bathing platform makes getting in and out of the water straightforward whether at anchor or alongside. Oyster’s own design team drew the exterior around function first, aesthetics second, yet the result is still unmistakably an Oyster: a clean sheer line, a deep bow for genuine seakeeping, and deck saloon glazing that keeps her profile distinctive among sailing yachts her size.
Ten knots under power, with the tankage to make that figure meaningful.
Power comes from a Volvo Penta D4-180 as standard, with a Yanmar 4JH110 offered as an alternative, driving her to a 10 knot cruise and 12 knots at full throttle. More telling is the 1,500 nautical mile range that figure unlocks, drawn specifically with long ocean passages in mind rather than coastal hops between marinas. A 2.8 metre draught keeps her access to anchorages reasonably open for a yacht of this displacement, a deliberate balance between stability offshore and flexibility once she arrives. Sail handling systems are built around a short handed crew, so two capable sailors can manage her comfortably between ports.
Four cabins, each en suite, and not one laid out the same way twice.
The 805’s accommodation can be shaped around how an owner actually uses the yacht rather than a fixed brochure plan. The master suite runs open and uncluttered, lit by Oyster’s signature Seascape and Skyscape windows that keep the sea in view from the bed. Beyond the standard four en suite cabins, owners can trade a guest cabin for a day bar, a home gym, a private office or a library, a flexibility unusual in a yacht built this seriously for offshore work. Twelve guests can be hosted by day, eight sleep aboard, with three crew to keep the yacht running on longer legs.
Life aboard the 805 is built around long days at sea rather than short hops between anchorages.
The central cockpit carries an integrated daybed, a detail that matters more on a three week passage than it does for an afternoon sail, letting off watch crew rest within reach of the helm. Storage and provisioning space are sized to match: extensive lockers and a robust ventilation system keep the yacht liveable on long legs between provisioning stops. Materials throughout favour longevity over show, a reflection of Oyster’s British building tradition and the yacht’s intended working life rather than a single season of charter.
Oyster owners have logged more than twenty million ocean miles and completed over a hundred circumnavigations, and the 805 was engineered with exactly that scale of ambition in mind.
She is built around Oyster’s biennial World Rally, a circumnavigation of some 27,000 nautical miles, and her systems reflect it: a Lloyd certified hull for structural confidence far from support, and a 1,500 nautical mile range under power that keeps genuine passages within reach even when the wind fails. Naval architecture comes from Rob Humphreys, continuing a partnership that has defined Oyster’s sailing yachts for decades, with Oyster’s own design and engineering teams responsible for everything from the exterior lines to the structure below the waterline. For an owner planning an actual circumnavigation rather than a summer cruise, the 805 is built for the whole voyage, not just the departure.
