Oyster Marine and Dubois Naval Architects have collaborated on two superyachts, the Dubois Oyster 100 and the Dubois Oyster 125, in a move that teams-up two of British yachting's most esteemed companies.
Constructed from composite materials, both yachts will utilise female tooling and are expected to be manufactured at RMK Marine in Istanbul.
Commenting on the collaboration, Ed Dubois said: "It's a unique opportunity to combine a real depth of experience from Oyster, who we consider to be the world's best series composite producer, with Dubois Naval Architects' breadth of design knowledge. The decision to plan and develop two designs simultaneously demonstrates the commitment behind this really exciting project."
Prior to working with Dubois, Oyster's largest yacht was the Oyster 82, meanwhile Dubois's largest yacht was 188 ft long.
In April of this year, Dubois announced that its Como superyacht was awarded the Best Motor Yacht Exterior Styling Award at the Boat International World Superyacht awards 2007.
