About this vessel
A practical, thoughtfully made aluminium owner's version catamaran, presented in excellent condition and ready for long-distance cruising or comfortable coastal voyaging. Built with a focus on durability, autonomy and low environmental impact, the Tortue 147 is designed to make extended passages more accessible to responsible cruising couples and families. The interior volume is organised around a large central living space with the galley as the heart of daily life, while private cabins in the hulls provide quiet retreats.
The hull is constructed from 5083 H111 aluminium with 8-10 mm heavy gauge and 6060 T6 reinforcement profiles, finished with five-coat polyurethane paint and 40 mm XPS insulation. The deck features welded aluminium forward beam with bow rollers and solid Paulownia deck battens, along with Altuglass hatches and a 12 mm electric windlass with 30 kg Spade anchor and 80 m chain.
Propulsion is provided by two Yanmar 4JH57 57 hp diesel engines with ZF gearbox ratio 1.93 and 3-blade manganese bronze propellers. Steering is managed by RV2 + VHM 50 DPT hydraulic steering with balanced rudder and emergency aluminium tiller.
Navigation and communication systems include TimeZero, AIS, VHF, DST810, NMEA 2000 Victron, Ship heart Sonar & Radar Furuno, and Icom M330 VHF. The vessel features an anodised aluminium mast with three spreader sets, mainsail and solent (Ocean range, Dimension-Polyant AP 480 g/m2), electric furlers for mainsail and solent, lazy bag and lazy jacks.

The accommodation includes a master cabin with ensuite, 3 double guest cabins, and 1 forward crew/forepeak cabin, with 2 guest bathrooms and practical cabin storage.
The central island galley features a 236 L refrigerator, 95 L freezer, 3.5 kw convection oven, 1.5 kw microwave, 2-burner gas stove, twin granite sinks, ample storage, and dishwasher. The saloon offers seating with storage under seats and a navigation station.
Safety systems include 7 bilge pumps, greywater systems with pumps, and easy-fire suppression. Deck equipment includes trampolines, roof access ladders, davits and dinghy lifting gear, 3m60 dinghy with 25hp engine, and paddleboard storage. An outdoor 3 kw Plancha is also fitted.
