Tortuga - A Bristol Yacht |
|
Only 726 of the Bristol 24s were ever built. Tortuga, built in 1977, is part of this rare collection. The hull is solid fiberglass for reliability and strength. Her full length keel provides stability and her tonnage allows her to plow through Chesapeake Bay waves that toss other boats around |

|
Tortuga's 3 tons of displacement make her more stable than other yachts her size. Once in motion she has the momentum of a freight train, without brakes. |
