Interior Accommodations
BELLAMARE’s accommodation access is through the well-protected companionway hatch forward in the cockpit, beneath the dodger. The washboard drops into a storage cavity and pins closed or half height.
One immediately senses the elegance, comfort, and quality of the bright and open interior. Details are thoughtfully designed with rounded corners everywhere, panel reliefs, counter and shelf fiddles, handholds, and contrasting white overheads. Varnished teak is used for interior joinery and is in excellent condition. The cabin sole is teak with holly accent stripes and all sole boards are easily removed for bilge access after removing retention screws. The overhead is padded white vinyl - fully removable. All overhead hatches are fitted with concealed Ocean Aire blinds and screens. Wall-switched recessed spotlights are well placed for evening illumination. Brass Frigast reading lights are sensibly mounted in each space. All cabinet and cabin doors positively latch closed.
BELLAMARE features a four cabin layout with two heads. Forward, there are two staterooms that share a head. The starboard cabin featuring a pullman style double berth and the port stateroom featuring two bunks. The head, forward, features a integral shower. Amidships, her raised salon is bright and airy with excellent ventilation. There is a curved settee to starboard surrounding a beautiful teak table with chessboard inlay that folds to create a larger dining space. To port is a settee that has a knockout to create a sea berth. At the aft, port corner of the salon is the nav station with full instrument package and electrical distribution/monitoring close at hand. Adjacent to the nav station is a additional cabin with single bunk. The spacious galley is located in the passageway to the aft cabin. Counter space is more than ample, as is storage in many lockers and drawers. A deep top loading freezer compartment and massive front loading refrigerator are well insulated. Aft, the owner’s stateroom with full size walk around berth is a comfortable space with excellent storage. There is a ensuite head with separate shower stall.

BELLAMARE is fitted with a efficient Yanmar diesel engine and Westerbeke generator. An Aquadrive shaft coupling, high-quality lead backed sound insulation, and exhaust gas/water seperator eliminate most engine noise while motoring. All systems are of top quality with excellent access for service. The engine is located beneath the cockpit with access through hinged doors in the bunk room, and removable panels below the companionway ladder and galley. Overhead lights switch on for visual inspection of the engine.

Deck and Hull
The Oyster 53 combines a powerful offshore hull with the practical, beautifully finished deck layout that has made Oyster a benchmark for serious cruising yachts. Designed by Rob Humphreys and Oyster Marine, her substantial 49,600-pound displacement, high-performance bulb keel and deep 7’3” draft provide the stability and tracking ability expected of a true passage maker, while the robust Lloyd’s-approved GRP construction is built for miles offshore. Above deck, the Oyster’s distinctive deck-saloon profile, wide side decks, protected cockpit and thoughtfully arranged sailhandling systems create a secure and efficient platform for short-handed cruising. BELLAMARE has seen significant attention to her exterior, including a complete hull repaint, a fully painted non-skid deck following replacement of the original teak, new deck hatches, resealed deck fittings, and new standing rigging.
