Turtle II Power Boat

A hard top over the cockpit shelters the centre of Turtle II, so her main living space sits outdoors without sitting in the sun. She is a 55ft (17m) Wajer power boat, launched in 2019, sleek and contemporary in line.

Where she cruises

Her home port is Antibes in France, and Monaco falls within her range as readily as the coast of France itself.

Accommodation and crew

Two double cabins sleep four guests, air conditioned, with a full bathroom aboard, and by day she carries as many as ten. Two professional crew are with her full time, July and August being her peak months.

Comfort under way

Turtle II cruises at 28 knots and tops out at 38, so the distance between two anchorages is quickly done.

On deck

The sun lounge aft is wide enough to lie out on, and a dining table gives the party somewhere to sit down to a meal in the open air. A hydraulic swim platform lowers to the sea, which means getting in and back out again takes no effort.

Water toys

Two Seabobs will pull two guests along under the surface, two paddleboards stand two more up on top of it, and masks and snorkels come aboard for looking at what lies below.

Charter notes

Turtle II takes day charters and also works as a chase boat, and a day's hire suits two couples above all: a cabin each below, a bathroom, and the toys already stowed on board.
