Protect the Yacht is an Intermediate Map[1] in Bloons TD 6. Introduced in 42.3, it was released with the eponymous quest. Similar to Blons, it is only initially accessible by completing the Quest of the same name. Completing the quest makes the map accessible in the Challenge Editor's map selection menu, along with being playable in Boss Challenges. Because of its limited accessibility, medals cannot be earned for this map.
Overview[]
Protect The Yacht takes place on a shore with shipping containers blocking the left side of a yacht. In the top left and right corners of the map are two trucks with an offscreen crane on the right side. Bloons enter from the south, turn left and travel along the shipping containers until they make a right turn behind the boat. Once there, the bloons travel until they're on the other side of the boat, at which point they turn right and board the yacht, which serves as the map exit. The path is horizontally mirrored on the right side. The Bloons are invincible until they reach the vertical shipping containers, where they can only be attacked by obstacle-ignoring towers, and can be attacked by all towers once they're off the containers. The yacht is in a body of water where water towers can be placed, and land towers can be placed on the shore. The highest flat-topped area on the yacht can fit up to a Monkey Village,
