Former Formula One team owner and race winner, Eddie Jordan has today revealed his new Oyster 495 TUGA. The 495 is the newest boat in the Oyster Yachts fleet and is currently exhibiting in cities across Europe on a World Premiere Tour - next stop Barcelona, 30th July.

Jordan's conviction to saving marine life is what inspired the name Tortuga featured on the hull, Spanish for the word turtle, which is a greatly endangered species.

Oyster 495 TUGA, is an Oyster with a difference, featuring a striking design, a collaboration with London-based design agencies Hekkta and Holmes Interior Studio, which was born from Jordan's brief of sea-life, something fun and exciting.

"I think the baby of all families should be young, free and fun. The Oyster 495 is our little Oyster baby. Rock and Roll!" commented Jordan.
