Ocean Yacht Systems is sold

Ocean Yacht Systems (OYS) have undergone a Management Buy-Out (MBO), whereby the
current Directors have purchased Ocean Yacht Systems Ltd for an undisclosed sum with
immediate effect.
Having been guided by a holding Company since 1998, OYS have been known for innovative
products and pushing the boundaries with technical developments within the superyacht
industry for thruster, hydraulic and rigging solutions. Together with the holding company,
OYS have always taken a very proactive role in investing and encouraging continuous
development and flexibility in order to meet the challenging market needs. This
innovation has been driven by the management team who have now instigated and
completed this MBO.
The primary contacts remain the same with Wayne Shatwell continuing to lead as
Managing Director, ably supported and guided by Daniel Wilson as Finance Director, Mark
Barwell as Sales Director and Ian Crowden as Technical Director.
“This is a very exciting time for everyone
at OYS,” explains Wayne Shatwell. “The
four of us have worked together now for
the last seven years, we have adapted the
company to the changes in the market
place and we are looking to continue this
progression.”
OYS originally established itself as a world
leader in the manufacture and supply of
Nitronic® 50 rod rigging to the superyacht
industry, rigging the world’s largest sloop,
with the tallest mast and largest sail area,
Mirabella V. Subsequently they moved into
composites working with Kevlar ® and PBO.
In addition to this, since 2006 OYS has been associated with the design, engineering and
manufacturing of award winning bespoke propulsion, thruster and hydraulic systems.
Today OYS work with leading superyacht and commercial yards around the world providing
technically advanced marine engineering solutions.
