Peter added “The Hythe facility will allow us to exploit production of the 495 in innovative new ways, combining new technology to complement our industry leading quality and hand finished craftmanship which Oyster is world renown. This commitment is a huge boost for the local boat building community which will see further investment and job opportunities from a world class boatbuilder like Oyster Yachts.”

Oyster Yachts announces investment in new production facility
One of the UK’s iconic yacht manufacturers, Oyster Yachts, is undertaking a considerable expansion programme. The company is acquiring an additional 27,000 sq ft at the Hythe Marine Park, Southampton, which will be used to create a state-of-the-art production facility for the new Oyster 495 yacht.
Oyster’s Owner and CEO Richard Hadida says, “with several Oyster 495s already sold, investment in this dedicated production facility fits seamlessly with our growth strategy. We have great plans for Hythe Marine Park, this location is already a centre of excellence for boat building and it is the ideal location for our expansion of Oyster.”
Oyster Yachts is moving into the historic Grade II listed buildings known locally as the Admiralty Shed or the Flying Boat Hangar, which produced sea planes for World War 1, before becoming a key facility for Vickers Supermarine and later the maintenance base for the pioneering Empire flying boats. More recently, it saw the production of the test boats for the 2017 America’s Cup campaign and Alex Thompson’s 2020 Vendee Globe racing yacht.
This announcement sees Oyster Yachts increasing its existing facilities by 70%, supporting the company’s ongoing investment and growth strategy in the UK. To accommodate the expansion Oyster, will be increasing its Southampton workforce by a further 70 employees. The expansion in Hythe is seen as a positive development for new talent in the area. Awarded Employer of the Year by City College Southampton in 2021, the company is invested in developing new talent which led to the creation of its own Oyster Apprenticeship Academy. The Academy ensures time-honoured craftmanship skills and techniques are passed onto new and younger generations to ensure Great British boat building trades are sustained.
Southampton-based expansion follows on from growth at Oyster’s manufacturing facilities in Wroxham and the creation of a specialist technology centre in Ashmanhaugh, both in Norfolk.
The expansion into new premises at Hythe is being overseen by Oyster’s newly appointed Chief Operations Officer, Peter Hamlyn. Peter added “The Hythe facility will allow us to exploit production of the 495 in innovative new ways, combining new technology to complement our industry leading quality and hand-finished craftmanship for which Oyster is world renowned. This commitment is a huge boost for the local boat building community which will see further investment and job opportunities from a world class boatbuilder like Oyster Yachts.”

Oyster yachts to invest in new production facility.
One of the UK’s iconic yacht manufacturers, Oyster Yachts, is undertaking a considerable expansion programme. The company is acquiring an additional 27,000 sq. ft at the Hythe Marine Park in Southampton, which will be used to create a state-of-the-art production facility for the new Oyster 495 yacht.
Oyster Yachts is moving into the historic Grade II listed buildings known locally as the Admiralty Shed or the Flying Boat Hangar, which produced seaplanes for World War I, before becoming a key facility for Vickers Supermarine and later the maintenance base for the pioneering Empire flying boats. More recently it saw the production of the test boats for the 2017 America’s Cup campaign and Alex Thompson’s 2020 Vendee Globe racing yacht.
The announcement sees Oyster Yachts increasing its existing facilities by 70%, supporting the company’s ongoing investment and growth strategy in the UK. To accommodate the expansion, Oyster will be increasing its Southampton workforce by a further 70 employees.

Oyster’s owner and CEO, Richard Hadida , said: “With several Oyster 495s already sold, investment in this dedicated production facility fits seamlessly with our growth strategy. We have great plans for Hythe Marine Park, this location is already a centre of excellence for boat building, and it is the ideal location for our expansion of Oyster.”
Awarded Employer of the Year by City College Southampton in 2021, the company is invested in developing new talent which led to the creation of its own Oyster Apprenticeship Academy. The Academy ensures time-honoured craftsmanship skills and techniques are passed onto new and younger generations to ensure Great British boat building trades are sustained.
The Southampton-based expansion follows on from growth at Oyster’s manufacturing facilities in Wroxham, and the creation of a specialist technology centre in Ashmanhaugh, both in Norfolk.
The expansion into new premises at Hythe is being overseen by Oyster’s newly appointed chief operations officer, Peter Hamlyn . Peter added “The Hythe facility will allow us to exploit production of the 495 in innovative new ways, combining new technology to complement our industry leading quality and hand finished craftsmanship which Oyster is world renown. This commitment is a huge boost for the local boat building community which will see further investment and job opportunities from a world class boatbuilder like Oyster Yachts.”

Great British craftsmanship
Oyster craftsmanship began in Norfolk in 1973. Oyster drew on the experience and craftsmanship of Landamores, who had been building wooden sailing yachts since 1923. They were soon joined by another Norfolk boat builder with an equally fine pedigree, Windboats, founded in 1920 by Graham Bunn – a master craftsman and yacht designer.
Merge and conquer
This team was responsible for building more than 700 Oyster yachts until Oyster took over Landamore’s new facility and brought the build in-house combining the workforce from both companies.
We have four main yacht construction centres: in Norfolk, there is Oyster Yachts Wroxham which is close to our new composite technology facility in Ashmanhaugh. The Oyster 565 and 595 are all brought to life here by our skilled teams. Our other construction centres are located in Southampton, where our Oyster 495 and larger models – the Oyster 675, 745 and 885 – are built and finished by hand to the highest standards. Our head quarters are at Saxon Wharf, Southampton and our newest construction centre at Hythe Marine Park is a state-of-the-art production facility where the new Oyster 495 is built.
British yacht builders
Everything about our boats and build process is focused on creating the world’s finest bluewater British yachts, from the quality of the materials to the exceptional skills of our craftsmen and women and precise project management. We believe a key part of owning an Oyster is understanding the craftsmanship and attention to detail that go into her. Passing down these time-honoured craft skills to the next generation of great British boatbuilders is a priority for Oyster – it is the reason we set up the Oyster Academy, where our apprentices learn from the very best.

Becky Bridgen retires from deputy CEO role at Oyster
Wednesday, September 28th, 2022
Written by: Marine Industry News
Becky Bridgen has announced her retirement. She leaves her role as deputy CEO at Oyster Yachts.
Over the last four and half years, Bridgen has worked hand-in-hand with Richard Hadida, and the board, under the chairmanship of Ashley Highfield, to turnaround the fortunes of the luxury yacht business , following the acquisition of the business in 2018.
Bridgen retires leaving Oyster in good shape. During her time in the role, she has overseen the launch of three new models – the 565, 595 and earlier this year the latest addition to the fleet, the 50 foot Oyster 495. Production of Oyster Yachts has been transformed, the workforce has increased to over 600 and the manufacturing footprint expanded to Hythe Marine Park, with a state-of-the-art facility, which manufactures the new Oyster 495 and the 675. The outlook for Oyster is positive, with build bays full and order books on most models out to 2024.
“I’ve had the most incredible time at Oyster, and the workload over these past years has been immense with all the positive developments we’ve implemented, plus of course all the extra challenges as a result of Brexit and the global pandemic,” says Bridgen. “I’m sad to leave Oyster, but proud to have worked with such a great team and talented boat builders, who together make Oyster so special.”
Bridgen will continue to remain close to Oyster, collaborating and imparting her extensive knowledge and experience in a part time capacity, providing continuity to the business, customers and suppliers.
Richard Hadida commented, “We’re very sad to see Becky leave us. Becky has delivered an outstanding contribution to the turnaround programme at Oyster Yachts. She will always remain part of the Oyster family and I look forward to our continued collaboration.”
