Description

CHINOOK (17m/56), a 2001 Oyster 56

Built to venture far beyond traditional cruising grounds, CHINOOK boasts an impressive 38,000-nautical-mile history and the capability to support extended time at sea.

Originally commissioned in 2001, she accommodates up to 7 guests across 4 staterooms and offers expansive deck and interior spaces, a washing machine, wine fridge, air conditioning, and multiple areas for dining and relaxation.

CHINOOK is being sold by her original owners, who have spent 25 years sailing the world.
