The OYSTER 118 concept was originally announced in 2015 and the hull was completed in 2016 before financial issues placed the project on hold. After the company found a new owner in construction resumed, however the shipyard now intends to return to its focus producing high-quality sailing yachts ranging in size from 15m/50ft to 27m/90ft.
