Tartaruga is a magnificent 45-foot performance catamaran built in Lorient by Jean Luc Marlière, in collaboration with Francis Joyon and Charlie Capelle. The boat is in impeccable condition, 4 cabins, French Polynesia tax paid and ready to set sail to explore Polynesia at record speeds. This catamaran has been exceptionally well maintained and is very well equipped for the big trip.

Tartaruga is comparable with the Catana or Outremer models and offers an unbeatable quality/price ratio with careful construction quality. The hull is designed for performance and there is a very nice living space inside, a fully equipped galley, air conditioning and a portable generator, a VMC, very comfortable cabins, a saloon convertible into a double berth, and a large exterior cockpit. Tartaruga has proved her worth in several ocean crossings with excellent sailing performance: she is seaworthy and solid, it is ready for all adventures.
