Full Details
Oyster LD43
The Oyster LD43 combines traditional craftsmanship, with modern design and technology, to create a unique blend of performance, sea keeping and comfort. The LD43 is about good times afloat, whether dining alfresco in the cockpit, having a candlelit dinner in the enclosed saloon or enjoying a cruise with family and friends. Modern composite construction with carbon fibre and Kevlar will create a strong light hull, optimised for us by Levi Designs and tank tested at the Wolfson Unit. While conventional drives may be chosen, with her twin water jets the LD43 will top out at 30 plus knots - no worries about fouled props and the ability to go shallow or even dry out. Build quality and design flair, combined with great after sales support, create a boat that really will be what good times afloat are all about.

Tom was the one of the service managers at Yacht Haven in Stamford, Connecticut from 1979 -1994. Since Tom was always sending customers to Prestige Yacht Sales, he thought he should try the brokerage business. That was eighteen years ago, Tom has since become owner of Prestige Yacht Sales. Prestige Yacht Sales has grown from one office in Stamford with three brokers, to three offices in Norwalk, Essex and Mystic with seven full time brokers! "After working in the boatyard for so many years, I never thought of myself as a sales person. To this day I think of myself as a customer service guy that happens to know and love boats. Hey, where else can I work and bring my Springer Spaniel, Wesley with me every day? I think most of my customers actually come to see him not me!" Tom is a member of Saugatuck Harbor Yacht Club, CPYB and YBAA Board Member.
