thats the hull at 44' in nj. i built the first 38' hull from my 44' mold after that race in nj. this was tortuga 2 in white , the next four 38 hulls i sold to joel halpern for his cobra project ,JOEL PAID ME DIRECT bill swain was his project manager. he came down from ny to run his race team,he was ex foot ball player. any other molds that were pulled from my hulls or copies out there were done without permission from myself or bob. i still have this mold and at this time i am building a new model in 44' x11' 6" GOV.

After Jon Varese died I sold the 44' and the 38' Tortuga number 2 and gave the money to his family. I think the boats are in the Bahamas.

Ciao Sonny,
here the two La Tortuga.
One question: who was the driver of La Tortuga II,always Varese? What the year/years of races?

I also made him some pleasure hulls at 38 foot. Same bottom, same deck. All called MSV/Cobra 38's in the early 1980's.

Thanks Sonny.... So what is the hull featured in this thread? It appears that it has nothing to do with the Joel or his original "Beep Beep" boats.

that boat feathered , i think this is something built at mr bananna s shop. this is not an original msv/cobra 38. i moved to europe 1983, in my absence i think some copies were taken some of my hulls. these were done with out my permission or bob s .i also thought the name beep beep was property of mr halpern. sonny miller
