TORTUGA Yacht Description
Offered by DMA Yachting, the majestic charter yacht TORTUGA is a 46 ft sailing catamaran. TORTUGA spends the summer and winter season in British Virgin Islands. She was constructed by the ship builder Lagoon in 2020. The ingenious yacht layout features 3 generous cabins and easily accommodates a maximum of 6 guests.

He bought a Hobie '16 before he even had his driver's license and was a state champion surfer for six years straight. The love and respect he has for the ocean is indescribably fascinating.

Briana grew up in Maine where she was introduced to sailing by her father. She spent her summers hiking, camping, sailing, and climbing trees. Briana attended Johnson & Wales university originally as a hospitality major but ended up graduating with a double major of business and finance. After college she excelled in a corporate career which introduced her to luxury international travel as well as humble local cultures. She became fascinated by how people live in other countries and in 2017 she left the US to travel full time. Over the past 6 years she’s traveled to more than 45 countries and has lived and worked/volunteered in several. She has a passion for adventure and learning new skills. Some of Briana’s favorite gigs were working as a kayak guide in Costa Rica, a rafting guide in the Italian alps, a ski instructor in Maine, and an English teacher in Bali. She fell in love with the ocean while in Thailand where she learned to scuba dive. Since being introduced to scuba it’s nearly impossible to keep her out of the water. She’s passionate about learning about different species and especially sharks. Her scuba and shark obsession is what eventually got her back into sailing as she joined a sailing expedition to explore and dive in the Tuamotus archipelago of French Polynesia. Since that voyage Briana has worked on or volunteered for several different sailing vessels and has become a strong and confident sailor.
Through her travels Briana has seen how food unites people and can be it’s own language. Briana has always enjoyed cooking for others and sitting down for a shared meal. She enjoys using fresh local ingredients to keep her menu bright, flavorful, and full of nutrients. She’s learned different techniques from Italian Nonna’s, Costa Rican Abuela’s and Thai women, all of which she incorporates into different dishes. Briana looks forward to sharing her food with you!

Reviews
We so enjoyed their company. I'm not sure it's even possible for Heather to cook a bad meal! Their trip was truly a unique experience and one I will think fondly of for the rest of my life!
This trip was so fun!
The food was awesome and they are so accommodating to everyone's needs. We went snorkeling almost every day and swam with turtles. Heather and Bubba are such a sweet couple and have 100% become my besties.
You guys made our family escape a super success! We so needed to get away as a family and Tortuga made it possible, taking us on with almost no notice. You met and exceeded our expectations! Food was awesome and trip/route planning was geared to our interests. We wish you both the very best in the future and great success where life takes you!
The Voss Family
Thank you both so very much for making our vacation on board Tortuga so special and full of fond memories! We haven't stopped thinking about our time with you and the gorgeous USVI since we got home, and we continue to look at our pictures and reminisce.
Tim, your experience and expertise as a captain and sincere desire to make sure we experienced as much as possible in a short week (including so many beautiful beaches) made us feel safe and special. You clearly paid attention to our likes and dislikes, and to every detail on the boat. You carefully studied weather conditions and forecasts to avoid too much wind and rough waters when choosing an itinerary, and you constantly checked with us to make sure we were enjoying ourselves, all of which made for a perfect charter. And when you were able to relax, we loved getting to know you better. Some of our fondest memories are of our after-dinner chats among all six of us.
Siboney, you are amazing. Not only was every single meal that we had beyond delicious, your energy, creativity and obvious love of cooking was over the top. And all from a small galley! It was clear to us how much you enjoy making your guests feel comfortable and special. Not only did you feed us like kings and queens, but you were a fantastic first mate/mooring ball expert. You and Tim make a great team!
When the charter began, we were excited about the week ahead but didn't know what to expect. However, at the end we left feeling like close friends and with a new and wonderful perspective on sailing in the Caribbean. It far exceeded our expectations and we can’t wait to do it again with you! Please feel free to share our message with anyone as we can’t recommend a charter with y’all more.
Your grateful friends,
Carolyn and Bruce

The perfect hosts, perfect weather. And he food!! oh my goodness Siboney has found her calling. The guys loved their scuba trips and we all loved the snorkeling with Captain Tim. He found such amazing spots to stop and moor for the evening and nights. Thank you so much you were such a blessing to us. Safe travels.
Thank you for such an amazing experience. You've really spoiled us this week, and we all felt so comfortable and relaxed. Let us know if you're ever in the Cleveland, OH area. We'd love to see you both again! You make such a great team.
Love Peggy and Jeremy
