Charter Guide
Find the Perfect Vessel for Your Charter
Each vessel type offers a unique sailing experience. Here's how they compare.
Traditional wooden motor-sailing vessels originating from Turkey's southwestern coast. Gulets offer spacious decks, multiple cabins, and are ideal for large group charters along the Turquoise Coast. Most include a professional crew and chef.
Twin-hull sailing vessels known for exceptional stability and spacious living areas. Catamarans are perfect for families with children, offering shallow drafts for anchoring close to shore and reduced seasickness compared to monohulls.
Classic monohull vessels that deliver the purest sailing experience. Ideal for experienced sailors and couples seeking performance under sail. Available as bareboat for qualified skippers or with professional crew for a relaxed voyage.
Powered vessels offering the highest levels of comfort, speed, and onboard amenities. Motor yachts cover more distance per day, feature flybridge entertaining areas, and typically come with full crew including captain and chef.
How much crew do you want onboard? Pick the service level that suits your style.
Rent the boat and captain it yourself. You'll need a valid sailing license and experience. The most affordable option, giving you complete freedom over your itinerary and schedule.
A professional captain handles navigation and sailing while you enjoy the voyage. Perfect for those who want to learn sailing or simply relax without the responsibility of managing the vessel.
A complete luxury experience with captain, chef, and steward(ess). Gourmet meals prepared onboard, personalized itineraries, and attentive service throughout your voyage. The ultimate floating vacation.

Four key factors to consider when selecting your charter vessel.
Bareboat charters start from €1,500/week while crewed motor yachts can exceed €30,000/week. Factor in provisioning, fuel, marina fees, and tips when planning your budget.
Couples may prefer a sailing yacht, families a catamaran, and large groups a gulet. Ensure the vessel's cabin configuration matches your group's privacy needs.
No sailing license? Choose skippered or crewed. Certified sailors can save significantly with bareboat. Some destinations require specific certifications.
The Turkish coast favors gulets, Greek islands suit catamarans, and the Caribbean offers excellent bareboat conditions. Match your vessel to the sailing conditions.
