The Oyster 80 DS Free Spirit is a proven, ocean-going Deck Saloon yacht, built to the highest standards for long-range cruising and safe bluewater passages. Designed by Holman & Pye and built by Oyster Marine, she represents a rare opportunity to acquire a classic Oyster 80 that has benefited from significant technical refit and upgrades.
Purchased in Curaçao and sailed under her own power to Cartagena, Free Spirit has since undergone a comprehensive mechanical and systems overhaul. She is currently ashore in the shipyard (haul-out), offering a major advantage to buyers, surveyors, and insurers, with full access to all underwater and technical components without delay.
A major highlight is the Cummins 350 hp diesel engine (new in 2008), providing excellent power, reliability, and worldwide serviceability — a significant upgrade over original installations.
This yacht is ideally suited for bluewater cruising, liveaboard use, expedition sailing, or world-cruising projects, and is offered in an honest, technically upgraded condition, with many high-cost refit items already completed.
