The hull tooling of the first superyacht Oyster 118 by Oyster Yachts is currently underway. The leading UK shipyard has released the photos below, showing the plug for the starboard topsides section. The tooling is so large, the yard is making it in several pieces: below–waterline, port & starboard topsides and deck tooling. Designed in partnership with Humphreys Yacht Design, the new 35-metre superyacht Oyster 118-001 represents the largest vessel to be built at Oyster’s Southampton yard.
