Yachting World 0shares Richard Matthews' latest boat Oystercatcher XXXV should be an exceptional racer. The Shaun Carkeek designed rocketship should be faster than a TP52 Ran VII with the experience of Oyster Yachts founder Richard Matthews is bound to result in an exceptional yacht. And so it looks if the first renderings of Oystercatcher XXXV are anything to go by. Given Matthews’ latest 52ft IRC racer doesn’t have to fit a box rule, designer Shaun Carkeek had plenty of latitude to create the fastest possible 52-footer. As a result this boat is wider, more powerful and significantly faster than a TP52.
