your floating chalet
The spacious saloon of the RS version of Oyster’s celebrated 885 model offers a 360° panorama of the local scenery, comfortably seating 8 around the smartly engineered foldable table. Bespoke designer tableware and Redington crystal, branded Heirlooms bed and table linens illustrate the attention to detail that the owners and crew have put in creating the ambiance and convenience of the luxury alpine chalet brought right to the footsteps of Europe’s best off-piste skiing. We even offer guest slippers and signature orange cashmere blankets to enjoy your morning mug of coffee on deck whilst admiring the dramatic colours as the sun emerges from behind the snow covered Arctic peaks.
Arctic Adventures for All
The large cockpit, employed either for handling spinnakers or offering al fresco dining in the Med, has been fully enclosed and heated for the Winter season. This volume above decks enables the guests to enjoy the sailing and dramatic Arctic scenery without changing from their slippers. The sail locker was adapted to host a ski rack; water toys in the lazarette gave way to an 8-pair boot heater to ensure that the guests enjoy a dry and warm pair of boots every morning.
Dining Experience
What could be better than skiing down an endless powder field to be greeted onboard with a freshly baked cake and afternoon tea? Homely and indulgent treats are just the beginning, with carefully crafted menus designed to keep you both fuelled for the mountains and your tastebuds satisfied. No matter what, the panoramic view in the saloon turns any meal in to a real occasion, sunrise at breakfast in particular.
Northern Norway: truly unique
The region of Tromso, the Lyngen Alps and the surrounding Fjords offer a unique experience. More than just off-piste skiing, there is plenty to keep non-skiers entertained too. In season there is whale watching, dog sledding, snowshoeing, along with countless cultural excurions, including distilleries, museums and various historical sites. Also remember to keep a keen eye out for the Northern Lights which make regular appearances!
