The Oyster SJ35 (Stephen Jones 35) represents a high-octane chapter in the history of a builder now primarily known for luxury deck saloon voyagers. Launched in 1983 as an IOR 3/4 Tonner, the SJ35 was designed by Stephen Jones to bridge the gap between a competitive offshore racer and a fast coastal cruiser. Unlike the heavy-displacement Oysters that followed, the SJ35 is a lean, fractional-rigged athlete that earned its reputation on the racecourse before finding a second life as a spirited cruiser for performance-minded sailors. According to Oyster Yachts, only 27 of these vessels were built between 1983 and 1985, making them a rare and sought-after model for those who value pedigree and pace.
