oyster 66 yacht

WHAT WE SAY

The Oyster 66 offers a really well thought out package of accommodation, good looks and performance. The saloon area is set at a height to give a line of sight outboard, through the Deck Saloon windows, allowing a panoramic outboard vista. The galley is open to the saloon and therefore feels very spacious, it is placed at an unobtrusive lower level with plentiful counter space and stowage. With proven handling and performance under sail and power, the Oyster 66 offers an attractive combination of features normally associated with much bigger yachts.

Capt. Graeme Maccullum and I chatted in the bright, airy saloon of the Oyster 66 AnnaCay , looking out over Falmouth Harbour in Antigua. “Why not cross the Atlantic, drop down to Trinidad and then head on down the South American coast?” we speculated. “You could stop at Devil’s Island, go up the Amazon, then on to Rio and Cape Horn.” For this newest of the company’s bluewater cruising yachts, the thoughts were not just pipe dreams. This yacht could make such a trip comfortably, safely and fast, in hot or cold weather, seas rough or smooth.

The Oyster design team, working with Rob Humphreys, has produced a thoroughbred in the 66. Like all Oysters, she was designed and built for offshore cruising in comfort and safety, run by the owners or crew. I recently completed a circumnavigation aboard my Oyster 55, Miss Molly, and was more than interested to see how the 66 stacked up in sailing and comfort. I wasn’t disappointed.

We cast off from Falmouth in gusty wind and squalls headed for Nonsuch Bay, a trip that involves bashing into the Atlantic for a few hours. We set the mainsail by pushing buttons-the Hood rollaway main is hydraulically driven, the outhaul electrically controlled. We set the high-clew yankee, again from the cockpit, using the Reckmann hydraulic furling gear. Exactly the right trim via the huge Lewmar electric winches sent us off, easily and safely. Shouldering aside great chunks of Atlantic, we powered quickly up to 8-plus knots-to windward, no less. If only I had been in this boat instead of my 55 beating up the Red Sea. Eleven grinding days spent navigating to windward would have been polished off in half the time.

Sipping cold ones from the cockpit cooler under the substantial dining table, we eased ourselves 10 or so miles out to sea. The large center cockpit, twin wheel positions and quarter seats aft provide a number of nice spots to enjoy the thrill of sailing. We eased the sheets and reached down to Nonsuch Bay before the tricky piloting started. Pressing buttons again to trim the sails, we settled down to a speed of 10-plus knots. Most big boats reach well, and the 66 is no exception, but I was impressed she held her line as well as she did when the big quartering waves tried hard to squirt the stern sideways. This exemplary behavior is the result of her fairly heavy displacement (83,774 pounds) coupled with a modern underwater shape, keel and rudder. The underbody is deeper than those of lightweight flyers but shallower than traditional cruisers, and does not have flat surfaces to pound. The keel has twice the chord length and maybe half the span of a high-performance racer/cruiser, but the shape is effective. A ballast bulb at the tip lowers the center of gravity for good stability while reducing drag. The skeg-hung rudder is large enough to take big bites of water for quick, accurate steering response.

We had an excellent chance to test her maneuverability when we lost the boardsail mast overboard. We had to quickly furl the yankee, sheet up the main, check for lines in the water and start the engine to swing back on a reciprocal course. The small emergency provided an opportunity to angle the Oyster 66 using her powerful bow thruster, and she maneuvered well, even in the rough seas.

The 66 has a spacious saloon with an elevated seating and table area that will accommodate about 10 people. Seated here, you have a panoramic view through the large windows with none of the claustrophobic feeling of being shut away in a cavern. I remember sweating belowdecks on my own boat during interminable tropical squalls between the equatorial waters of Indonesia and Malaysia. This saloon would have made those days more fun.

The navigation station on the saloon’s starboard side has a large chart table with space above for a navigation/communications suite. Down a few steps to the lower saloon area are the galley and a pair of armchairs, perfect for reading or quiet conversation. The master suite back aft has a queen-size berth, a settee, two large hanging lockers and a lot of drawer space. Port and starboard double cabins forward of the master share a single head to port. All the heads have VacuFlush toilets, are finished with a wood-trimmed Formica laminate that’s easy to clean and have full standing headroom, ample locker space and Avonite faux granite around the sinks.

Forward of the saloon are two double cabins, both with en suite heads. These could be used as crew’s quarters or guest staterooms. I would ask Oyster to craft a slightly smaller cabin to starboard with upper and lower bunks, allowing the port double-berth cabin to be a little wider. The crew could use either or both if guests didn’t need the double. Up in the forepeak are a cavernous sail locker and the usual anchor locker. Watertight doors may be fitted forward and aft to comply with MCA regulations. AnnaCay has these heavy doors because she is set up for charter, but they are not strictly required for purely private use.

Oyster uses two English yards to fit out the 66s, and their grasp of production quality control is impressive. The joinery detail, specially commissioned for Oyster by Dick Young Designs to celebrate the new millennium, features shadow-gap joints, custom Oyster 2000 logos on locker knobs and checkerboard floor panels. A variety of wood finishes are offered, cherry and American oak among them, but I prefer the traditional teak. No shortcuts were visible, even under the floorboards and behind panels.

The galley, however, could do with a little rearranging. It has a big stove, fridge and freezer, as well as numerous cupboards and drawers, but the washing machine takes up a lot of useful stowage. This machine would be better situated elsewhere, and Oyster will accommodate such requests. In fact, Oyster scores high when it comes to giving the buyer choices. The company offers custom design within the constraints of the hull moldings and bulkhead positions.

AnnaCay ‘s hard-bottom inflatable is launched via electric davits one person can operate. A lazarette right aft held fenders, spare parts and such, as well as a dive compressor, three sets of gear, a sailboard and rig, two sets of skis and other toys. The forward stows light-weather sails, a spare anchor and a deflated second dinghy-with room for more.

After a restful night on board, we dodged back to sheltered water before a tropical front brought high winds and squalls. Running under full yankee and mainsail in about 22 knots with the usual quartering swell, we held the speed above 8 knots with no stress. We could have pushed a bit, but comfort was the order of the day. The 66 slipped along easily.

Back in Falmouth Harbor, we repaired to the Admirals Inn. As the rain lashed down and the wind howled, I decided I would have felt fine had I still been at sea. The Oyster 66 is strong, with a solid laminate hull and beefed up balsa-core deck. She sails beautifully and is supremely comfortable to be aboard.

There’s no question, the design team has fulfilled its brief.

Timeless watches for timeless views

Yacht-Master

A valuable tool watch

A technical and elegant watch, the Yacht-Master is a reliable nautical instrument on the wrist.

Its graduated bidirectional bezel allows for precise measurement and reading of time intervals when navigating. This tool watch benefits from innovations that improve its legibility and wearers’ comfort in all circumstances.

Graduated bidirectional bezel Precision and legibility on the wrist

The bidirectional bezel with raised 60-minute graduations is a key feature of the Yacht-Master. Entirely crafted in precious metal – 18 kt ct Everose gold or 950 platinum – or fitted with a black Cerachrom bezel insert in high-technology ceramic, it is an essential part of the watch’s identity.

With its polished markers and numerals, which stand out clearly from the matt surface, the bezel guarantees optimal reading of time intervals, for example, the sailing time between two buoys. Furthermore, the detailed graduation of the first 15 minutes offers extra precision when reading navigational time.

The bidirectional rotating mechanism relies on a ring bearing 120 notches for precise and fluid adjustment to the nearest half-minute. Lastly, the bezel has a knurled edge, making it easy to manipulate in all conditions.

Gold, Rolesor and Rolesium Precious alloys and exclusive combinations

Rolex gold is an intrinsic part of the Yacht-Master’s identity: 18 kt ct yellow, white or Everose gold are comprised of 750‰ pure gold and blends of silver, copper and palladium. They are all entirely created and cast in our own foundry.

The Yacht-Master in 18 kt ct Everose gold is available in two diameters: 37 mm and 40 mm. Each of these versions is also available with a diamond-paved dial. The 18 kt ct yellow gold and 18 kt ct white gold versions are reserved for the Yacht-Master 42.

Rolex gold is also combined with Oystersteel – a particularly corrosion-resistant alloy – for the Everose Rolesor versions of the Yacht-Master 37 and Yacht-Master 40. They combine a bezel and centre links in Everose gold with a middle case, winding crown, case back and outer links in Oystersteel.

The Yacht-Master 37 and the Yacht-Master 40 are also available in Rolesium versions, an alliance of platinum and steel. They combine a platinum bezel with a middle case, winding crown, case back and bracelet in Oystersteel.

RLX titanium Robustness and lightness

RLX titanium made its first appearance in the Yacht-Master range in 2023. The grade 5 titanium alloy selected by Rolex is a particularly lightweight metal and is noted for its mechanical strength and corrosion resistance. Its use for the Yacht-Master 42’s case and bracelet has reduced the weight of the watch by around a third compared to a similar watch in steel. RLX titanium is complex to work with and has required the introduction of special production processes.

The combination of polished, high-sheen and technical satin finishes illustrates our excellence in machining and finishing techniques. Together, they produce a subtle blend of textures and light, setting off the gleaming polished surface of the crown guard and the lustrous high-sheen on the top edges of the lugs against the matt of the technical satin finishing – with its pronounced grain – visible on the rest of the case and bracelet.

Bracelets, clasps and extension systems Comfort and security on the wrist

Chromalight display and cyclops lens for optimal legibility.

Equipped with the Chromalight display and the Cyclops lens, the Yacht-Master combines two exclusive Rolex features that improve legibility.

The Chromalight display provides optimum legibility, whatever the light conditions. The luminescent material is applied by experts to the hands and the large hour markers which have simple shapes (triangle, circle and rectangle) that are characteristic of Rolex professional watches. Brilliant white in daylight, this material emits an intense blue glow in the dark.

Introduced in 2008, the Chromalight display was optimized in 2021 to maintain the intensity of the blue glow for longer. The performance of this luminescent substance clearly exceeds the standards required by watchmaking norms.

Designed to improve the readability of the date thanks to its magnifying effect, the Cyclops lens is both an aesthetic and technical signature of the brand. This Rolex invention was patented in the early 1950s. Like the crystal of the watch, it is made of virtually scratchproof sapphire and benefits from a double anti-reflective coating.

Moscow concert attack: More than 60 reported dead; ISIS claims responsibility

This live blog has ended. For the most recent updates, please click here .

What we know about the Moscow concert attack

• Men in camouflage broke into a Moscow concert hall and opened fire, shooting an unknown number of people, Russia’s prosecutor general said.
• The terror group ISIS has claimed responsibility but did not provide proof of the claim, which was made on ISIS-affiliated news agency Amaq on Telegram.
• Russia's Investigative Committee said that more than 60 people are dead after the attack at Crocus City Hall. Officials have said more than 100 others were injured.
• A fire also started inside Crocus City Hall, a large concert venue northwest of central Moscow. Firefighters have evacuated about 100 people from the basement of the building and efforts are underway to rescue people from the roof, Russian emergency officials said.
• Russia officials said they were investigating the attack as a terrorist act.
• A popular rock band was scheduled to play what appeared to be a sold-out show at the venue, which has a maximum capacity of more than 9,000 people.

Three children among those killed, state media reports

Chantal Da Silva

Three children were among the more than 60 people killed in yesterday's attack at Crocus City Hall, Russian news agency RIA Novosti reported, citing the Russian Ministry of Health.

Officials have warned that the death toll connected to the deadly incident may increase as the investigation continues.

Xi sends condolences to Putin

Chinese President Xi Jinping sent condolences to Russian President Vladimir Putin on Saturday after a deadly shooting at a concert hall near Moscow, saying China opposes all forms of terrorism and strongly condemns terrorist attacks.

China firmly supports the Russian government’s efforts to maintain national security and stability, Xi said, according to CCTV state television. 

Moscow bloodshed comes two decades after some of worst attacks in Russia

Phil Helsel

The shooting attacks in Moscow are the latest in a series of deadly terror attacks in the country since the 2000s.

In 2004, militants from Chechnya and elsewhere took hostages at a school in Beslan in southern Russia.

The militants demanded a withdrawal from Chechnya. Hostages were kept in a gymnasium, and 334 died — half of them children — when gunfire and explosions erupted when it was stormed. Hostages’ families were critical of the rescue operation. Russian prosecutors later cleared authorities .

Two years prior, in 2002, Chechen separatists attacked the Dubrovka Theater in Moscow and took more than 700 people hostage. Russian forces used gas, and 129 hostages died. The attackers were killed.

More recently, in 2017 a suicide bomber from Kyrgyzstan killed 15 people as well as himself in an attack on a St. Petersburg subway. In 2013, two bombers killed a combined 34 people in attacks on a railway station and a trolleybus in Volgograd.

The group Islamic State, also known as ISIS, claimed responsibility for the attacks Friday at the Crocus City Hall venue.

Putin wishes victims well, deputy prime minister says

President Vladimir Putin is thinking of those injured in today’s attack and thanked doctors, a Russian government official said according to state media.

State media TASS reported that “Putin wished all those injured in the emergency at Crocus City Hall to recover and conveyed his gratitude to the doctors, Golikova said,” referring to Tatiana Golikova deputy prime minister for social policy, labor, health and pension provision.

More than 60 dead, and death toll could grow, Russian agency says

Russia’s Investigative Committee said Saturday that more than 60 people have died in the attack, and warned the number may increase.

“The bodies of the dead are being examined. It has been previously established that more than 60 people died as a result of the terrorist attack. Unfortunately, the number of victims may increase,” according to the Investigative Committee, which is a federal state agency.

Russia's Ministry of Internal Affairs and the security agency FSB are continuing to investigate, the committee said in a statement, and weapons and ammunition have been found.

U.S. warned Russia about planned terrorist attack in Moscow, NSC says

Monica Alba

The United States shared information about a potential terrorist attack in Moscow with Russia’s government earlier this month, a spokesperson for the National Security Council said.

The U.S. Embassy in Russia on March 7 warned U.S. citizens to avoid crowds and said it was monitoring reports that extremists might attack large gatherings in Moscow.

“Earlier this month, the U.S. Government had information about a planned terrorist attack in Moscow — potentially targeting large gatherings, to include concerts — which prompted the State Department to issue a public advisory to Americans in Russia,” NSC spokesperson Adrienne Watson said.

“The U.S. Government also shared this information with Russian authorities in accordance with its longstanding ‘duty to warn’ policy,” Watson said.

Putin recently dismissed ‘provocative’ warning about potential attacks

In remarks that aired three days ago, Russian President Vladimir Putin accused the West of “provocative statements” about potential terror attacks in Russia, and dismissed them.

“I’ll remind you of recent, let’s say directly, provocative statements of certain official Western structures about potential terror attacks in Russia,” Putin said.

“All of this looks like obvious blackmail and an attempt to intimidate, destabilize our country,” he said before the state security agency FSB.

Putin in those remarks did not specify a country or warning. The U.S. embassy in Russia on March 7 warned U.S. citizens to avoid crowds .

“The Embassy is monitoring reports that extremists have imminent plans to target large gatherings in Moscow, to include concerts, and U.S. citizens should be advised to avoid large gatherings over the next 48 hours,” the U.S. embassy warned.

Guards at concert hall didn't have guns, state news says

The Associated Press

Guards at the concert hall didn’t have guns, and some could have been killed at the start of the attack, Russian media reported.

Some Russian news outlets suggested the assailants fled before special forces and riot police arrived.

Reports said police patrols were looking for several vehicles the attackers could have used to escape.

U.S. had been gathering intelligence that ISIS could attack Russia

Ken Dilanian

The U.S. had been gathering intelligence for months that ISIS could mount a mass casualty attack in Russia, two U.S. officials confirmed to NBC News.

That information led to a March 7 warning issued by the U.S. embassy in Russia about possible extremist attacks, including at concerts, urging people to stay away from large gatherings, one of the officials said.

That official said the claim of responsibility today by ISIS appears to be genuine, though no final assessment had been made about who was responsible.

Some Moscow concertgoers filmed events as they unfolded Friday night, when gunmen opened fire inside a theater and people ran to take cover in fear for their lives.

Witness says gunfire was first thought to be construction noise

A witness to today’s armed attack on Moscow’s Crocus City Hall told a state news agency that they first mistook the gunfire for sounds of an installation being dismantled.

“First, we started hearing typical loud pops, but it was impossible to understand that they were gunshots. We thought that something was falling, as exhibitions were being dismantled at that moment, and someone seemed to be dropping something large,” Mikhail Semyonov told TASS .

“Then, the bangs were getting more and more frequent. Suddenly, there was a scream, and the bangs started to be heard as bursts. Then it became clear that it was shooting,” he said.

ISIS claims responsibility for attack but does not provide proof

The terror group Islamic State has claimed responsibility for the attack in Moscow.

The group, also known as ISIS, did not provide any proof of its claim, which came from ISIS-affiliated news agency Amaq on Telegram.

The group’s members have carried out a number of terror attacks, including the 2015 attacks in Paris that killed 130 people.

Children among the victims, Russia's children commissioner says

Yuliya Talmazan

Russia’s commissioner for children’s rights, Maria Lvova-Belova, said children were among the victims of tonight's attack.

"Information about their condition is regularly updated," Lvova-Belova said on Telegram. "Any additional assistance will be provided immediately."

She later told Russia 24 TV channel that at least two children had been injured, including one boy with a gunshot wound.

Earlier, Russian officials released a preliminary casualty toll of at least 40 people dead and more than 100 injured.

France, U.K., Germany condemn attack

Officials from France, the U.K. and Germany were among those who expressed their condolences to the victims of the attack at the Crocus concert hall.

"The images of the terrible attack on innocent people in Crocus City Hall near #Moscow are horrific," Germany's Foreign Office said on X . "The background must be investigated quickly. Our deepest condolences with the families of the victims."

"We condemn the terrorist attack in the Crocus City Hall near Moscow," the U.K.'s embassy in Russia said . "This is a terrible tragedy."

Meanwhile, France's foreign ministry called for "full light" to be shed on "these heinous acts."

Public events across Russia called off after attack

Several regional leaders across Russia, including in the annexed Kherson region of Ukraine, have canceled public events this weekend over security considerations after the deadly concert attack in Moscow.

Shortly after the attack, Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin canceled all sports, cultural and other public events in Moscow this weekend. State news agency TASS also quoted Russia's cultural ministry as saying that mass and entertainment events in federal cultural institutions have been canceled in the coming days.

Zelenskyy adviser speaks out about attack

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s adviser denied that Ukraine was involved in the deadly Crocus concert hall attack.

“Ukraine certainly has nothing to do with the shooting/explosions in the Crocus City Hall (Moscow Region, Russia),” Mykhailo Podolyak wrote on X. “It makes no sense whatsoever.”

No evidence has emerged to suggest Ukraine may have been involved, but Ukrainian officials may be trying to pre-empt accusations, as some Kremlin hawks have already started pointing at Kyiv. 

Asked whether the shooting was at all tied to the war in Ukraine, U.S. National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby said: “There is no indication at this time that Ukraine, or Ukrainians, were involved in the shooting, but again, this just broke. We’re taking a look at it, but I would disabuse you at this early hour have any connection to Ukraine.”

Videos posted to social media appear to show chaos inside Moscow's Crocus City Hall during and after a terrorist attack.

Some videos include what sound like gunshots and show men with rifles, as concertgoers frantically try to exit the venue.

State Department issues warning to Americans in Moscow

Jason Abbruzzese

The State Department said that the U.S. Embassy in Moscow is aware of the terrorist attack on Crocus City Hall and that U.S. citizens should avoid the area and follow the instructions of local authorities.

"The U.S. government’s ability to provide routine or emergency services to U.S. citizens in Russia is severely limited, particularly in areas far from the U.S. embassy in Moscow, due to Russian government limitations on travel for U.S. embassy personnel and staffing, and the ongoing suspension of operations, including consular services, at U.S. consulates in Russia," the State Department said in a message posted to its website .

The journalist said that at least three unmasked gunmen in camouflage entered the hall a few minutes before 8 p.m. Moscow time. They shot people point-blank and threw incendiary bombs, according to the journalist.
