What is a Turkish Gulet ?
The Turkish gulet is very similar to the working boats of old times and, equipped with engines and modern facilities, they allow you to explore the beautiful Turkish coast in comfort and style and relive the spirit an age long past.Imagine wooden sailing boats thousands of years ago carrying cargos of wine and copper across the Aegean to trade with ancient civilizations, or fishing boats earning a living from the Mediterranean teeming with fish.Such boats were built along the Aegean coast of Turkey and many of the skills and designs used then have been passed down to today’s boat builders.Our gulets, from 14-35 metres long. They have: beamy wooden hulls, very spacious and airy; high headroom which improves air circulation in a warm climate; high booms and bulwarks, very safe, especially for children; very spacious cabins, almost hotel comfort; spacious uncluttered sundecks, fully covered with sunmattresses; sheltered aft deck with coach roof; outside dining area covered with sun awning
