The Oyster 72 is a spacious Rob Humphreys designed cruiser that provides the performance, style, and luxury desired by the discriminating sailor. Holo Kai provides an exclusive cruising experience and is rated for transoceanic voyages.

On deck we have a big comfortable cockpit with dodger, bimini, wraparound seating for 10 people. The cockpit table incorporates a deck fridge and cool box for drinks, and unfolds ingeniously at meal times. The huge cockpit is perfect for enjoying the sea air, entertaining, and alfresco dining. Other features include: dual helm pedestals allowing a straight walk-through from the transom/passerelle, swim platform with deck shower, quarter seats, float free life rafts, dorades and foredeck sun bed. A 4m Avon RIB with 40-hp Honda outboard motor provides thin water access and can be used to tow the waterskis, wakeboard, and inflatable stored aboard.
The roomy interior is what you've come to expect from Oyster, great-looking, well-finished, and extremely comfortable. When you come below you find a large dinette with maple table with seating for 6, which can be supplemented by matching directors chairs. To starboard is additional seating and nav station with chart table. An HD TV with DVD provides entertainment when it is time to relax. A full galley is forward, separate from the salon.
