The Oyster 55, introduced in 1986, is widely regarded as the vessel that solidified Oyster Marine's reputation as a premier builder of semi-custom, world-class cruising yachts. Designed by the esteemed firm Holman & Pye, the 55 was an evolution of the earlier Oyster 53, achieving its greater length through "fiddling with the transom" to create a more graceful profile and increased storage capacity. With nearly 50 hulls produced before it was eventually succeeded by the Rob Humphreys-designed Oyster 56, the 55 remains a staple of the global cruising community and a frequent sight in the Oyster World Rally.
