what is a gulet
A gulet is an all wooden motor sailing yacht built for cruising the coasts in
the calm warm waters of the Mediterranean. These yachts are built to center life
on deck during the charter. Spacious decks and housing a large (usually) aft
half mooned shaped dining and lounging area are their main features.

life on board
Despite other intentions, a lot of people seem to spend most of their time
sipping their drinks already on the sun deck. But for the energetic, we would
recommend water-skiing, skin diving, fishing and walking in the woods when your
yacht is on anchor in one of many fabulous coves.

The number of passengers a gulet carries varies, according to size, between 8
and 16. On a 17 to 25 meter boat, that is quite a breathing space for each
person considering that every passenger has private quarters and jointly used
decks, saloons, etc. are quite spacious.
A gulet can best be compared to a small hotel afloat. There are double berths in
each cabin and occasionally, upper bunks. Every cabin has its and shower. The
crew sleeps and uses the facilities in their separate
Common quarters include a large saloon, a fully equipped galley commanded by a
cook, lots of uncluttered deck space, sun mattresses strewn all over to laze on
while tanning. Round sterned gulets have a mattress covered perch in the aft
that is called a "pigeon's nest", the most comfortable place to lounge or nap on
the boat, protected by awnings. Unlike a bareboat, which is often limited in
water supply, a gulet offers the chance to wash off the salt after every
swimming party, as it takes up to 3 tons of fresh water.

hints: Sailing in Turkish waters
Some recommendations:
* International navigation rules should be scrupulously followed.
* The Turkish courtesy flag should be flown from 08.00 to sunset.
* Yachtsmen should strictly refrain from taking any "archaeological souvenirs"
from the coastal waters and keeping them on board, since the penalty might be
quite heavy.
* Yachtsmen should take care of that the holding tanks must be pumped out on the
open sea before they arrive in the marinas. It is strictly forbidden the usage
of the toilettes and to pump out the holding tanks in the marinas and bays.
Otherwise you must calculate with very high financial penalties.
