Craftsmanship and Quality – Oyster 56 For Sale
Built by renowned boat builder Oyster Yachts, Britican embodies exceptional craftsmanship and uncompromising quality. Oyster Yachts is synonymous with excellence in yacht construction, and the Oyster 56 model is no exception. With meticulous attention to detail and the use of high-quality materials, Britican ensures a sturdy, reliable, and long-lasting investment.
Bluewater Capability
This Oyster 56′ for sail was purpose-built for bluewater cruising. Its solid construction, heavy displacement, and seaworthy design provide the confidence and security needed for traversing the open ocean. Britican’s robust hull and rigging make it a reliable and capable vessel. It’s ready to tackle any ocean adventure you have in mind. In our time with Britican, we’ve sailed over 45,000 nautical miles. We circumnavigated the Mediterranean, crossed the Atlantic Ocean (taking 18 days), and sailed extensively through the Caribbean and along America’s east coast.
Comfort and Luxury
Britican offers a luxurious and comfortable onboard experience. Its spacious interior features well-designed cabins, a stylish saloon, and an ergonomic galley. The thoughtfully crafted living spaces provide a welcoming and cozy atmosphere during extended passages, allowing you to relax and enjoy life at sea. For nearly ten years, we called Britican our home.
My husband, Simon, our daughter, Sienna, and I left for our grand sailing adventure in 2014 from Palma de Mallorca. Sienna was 3 1/2 years old when we left! For us, Britican started off feeling massive! Still, we had many guests throughout our travels and eventually turned our boat into a sailing lifestyle school, inviting other couples and families to see what living life was like! In the end, she was a perfect size.
Efficient Power Systems – Oyster 56 For Sale!
When it comes to power systems, Britican is equipped with cutting-edge technology. Its well-thought-out power system incorporates lithium batteries, solar power, and a new reliable generator. This ensures a continuous and efficient electricity supply. Enabling you to enjoy all the amenities onboard without worrying about power shortages during ocean voyages.
Throughout our YouTube videos and posts on this website, you can see all our improvements to Britican over the years. A big area that we invested in was power! Feel free to look around our website for an idea of our adventures and all the love we’ve poured into our Oyster 56.
Advanced Navigation Equipment
Britican has state-of-the-art navigation equipment. This includes top-notch GPS, chart plotters, radar, and AIS systems. With redundant systems in place, you can navigate confidently. You will also have accurate and reliable information, ensuring a safe and enjoyable journey.
Safety Features
Safety is paramount when venturing into the open ocean, and Britican is designed with safety in mind. It has essential safety gear, including life rafts, EPIRBs, emergency steering systems, and offshore-rated lifelines. These features provide peace of mind. They also allow you to focus on the joy of sailing while knowing you’re well-prepared for any situation. During the last five years of our ownership of Britican, we did sailing lifestyle experiences called the Britican Experience.
We had to code and comply with legal standards to charter our boat. Britican is overly safe! Our fire extinguishers are larger than they need to be. The ditch bag onboard has more than it should have. Our safety manual, procedures, and checklists exceed legal requirements. Why? Because safety is paramount. How can you truly enjoy the journey if you don’t have a safe boat? When you purchase Britican you’re not just getting a boat; you’re getting a safe boat!
Exceptional Performance

Its well-designed rigging and sail plan enable efficient and exhilarating sailing experiences, allowing you to harness the power of the wind and enjoy smooth passages across the ocean. Britican’s performance capabilities are ideal for those seeking thrilling and rewarding sailing adventures.
Not to mention that Britican usually wins regattas! Many boats try to race and beat Britican, but very few ever do. That includes catamarans. With her extra all-mast and carbon fiber rig, she’s the Oyster that gets everyone talking.
