Wanderer was the last of the Oyster 49s to be built and presents in immaculate condition. With just two owners from new she has had comparatively light use and is yet to cross an ocean.
Her current owners have lavished care and attention on her with no expense spared. Ashore for five months of the year and continuously professionally maintained she really must be seen to be appreciated.
From the manufacturer - The Oyster 49 offers excellent interior space, with six berths in three comfortable cabins, and excellent headroom throughout. Uncluttered decks and a generously sized centre cockpit make her simple to sail and a pleasure to liveaboard.
Full details are listed below but her highlights include:
- New high quality standing rigging 2023, some specified as Dyform and all Sta-lok capitve bottle screws.
- New masthead sheeves and mast boot 2023
- New electric headsail furler 2023

... And much, much more.
The Oyster 49 hits a sweet spot in terms of performance, ease of handling and high-quality accommodation and is relatively rare to market. Wanderer is a very capable bluewater cruiser and her outstanding condition will ensure she will rise rapidly to the top of any short list.
