Oyster 575 Buyer's Guide
Shopping the brokerage market for an Oyster 575 means considering a Generation 5 Humphreys-designed cruiser with 66 hulls built between 2010 and 2018. As a luxury bluewater yacht and charter boat, she is the definitive crossover size — manageable for a couple yet large enough to carry paid crew — and ex-charter examples are common among used Oyster 575s.
Layouts on the Used Market
Charter four-cabin arrangements are the more common used-market layout, though both configurations appear. The standard plan uses a centre cockpit to create an aft owner's stateroom with desk and private head, two smaller forward staterooms with upper-and-lower berths sharing a head, and a cabin beside the engine that also serves as engine-access passage. A workshop-or-crew option abaft the navstation, or a Pullman forward, lets buyers choose between extra working space and dedicated crew berths. The later interior revision brought direct forward-cabin head access and a raised chart area, so newer boats feel more open below.
Equipment and Common Upgrades
Commonly fitted gear on the used fleet centres on self-sufficiency and comfort: a bow thruster, furling main, heating, inverter, teak decks, and full navigation with radar, AIS, autopilot, and chartplotter support a circumnavigation-ready spec. Often-seen upgrades cluster around power and climate — electric winches, a watermaker, air conditioning, a freezer, and a cockpit shower extend range and livability — while sail-handling additions such as a spinnaker, gennaker, or asymmetric spinnaker suit downwind passages. Less commonly, buyers will find lithium batteries, a code zero, dinghy davits, solar, or Starlink as owner upgrades rather than factory standard.
What to Inspect
The aft cabins are prone to transmitted noise from dock, engine, and deck, so listen for it with systems running. The companionway is steep and the pilot berth is a tight fit, with no separate hanging space provided for dripping oilskins in the standard layout. Cockpit bench backrests were found too low for comfort without added cushioning. Check the engine-access stateroom and the walk-in engine room for the double-insulated VW installation, and confirm the generator under the companionway steps and the linked raw-water manifolds function as intended.
Availability and Buyer's Takeaway
These yachts typically appear in the United Kingdom, Spain, Germany, the United States, Montenegro, and Australia. For a buyer, the checklist is straightforward: confirm layout (charter four-cabin vs owner version), verify the later revision features if important, test aft-cabin noise with the engine and genset running, inspect the steep companionway and small pilot berth for personal fit, and review the commonly fitted circumnavigation equipment against your own plans before negotiating.
