The $2.8 million Oyster 595 was showcased at a luxury boat event in central London. It was made by British company Oyster, which has been building yachts for almost 50 years.

The particular model at the London Luxury Afloat show was called Karioca III. It will be sailing to various countries to attract buyers.

It comes with three bedrooms, including the master with ensuite, as well as lounge spaces, a kitchen, a crew quarter, and an entertaining space on the top deck.

Dan Wurzbacher, US head of Oyster sales, told Insider that the base price of the Oyster 595 is $2.8 million but customers can personalize the yacht via an options list, which increases the price.

Customers can choose different layouts, colors, and materials for the exterior and interior design of the yacht, Wurzbacher said.

The main deck features two steering wheels facing the outdoor entertainment area with a folding table.

In the front of the steering wheels, there is a control panel on each side...

... but there is another one in the lower deck, where there are more navigation and communication systems.

As you take the stairs from the main deck to the lower deck, you arrive in the lounge area where there are plenty of spaces to sit.

On one side, there is a dining table, and a bench on the other.

Purchasing a yacht "tends to be one of these things where ... all your life events have to line up to be able to do something like this," Wurzbacher said.

The galley has all the features you would expect in a modern kitchen, and the space is smartly configured with bins incorporated into the worktop.

The main cabin has an ensuite and features two panoramic portholes. The room is quite spacious and has plenty of storage.

The bathroom, in the ensuite master bedroom, is roomy and has even a bench in the shower.

The yacht's saloon and owner's cabin feel light and airy thanks to the four sets of signature Seascape windows that connect the interior and the ocean.

The champagne ice cooler is on the main deck and can fit... quite a number of bottles.

The yacht also has a "boot" that is accessible from the back of the main deck and has plenty of room for luggage.

It also features a hydraulic bathing platforms to let passengers swim from the rear of the yacht, Wurzbacker said.

Entrepreneurs are the typical buyers of the yacht, Wurzbacher said.
