Giant sea turtles are massive beasts, normally placid but ferocious when they feel they are under attack. They have a 90% chance of overturning a boat, and a 10% chance to overturn even a small ship. A sea turtle can withdraw its vulnerable head and flippers into its shell, but obviously cannot attack or move if it does so.
