Life on Board
 The
modern gulets are equipped as comfortably as many
small hotels, with generators and deep freeze. They
offer the perfect atmosphere for a lazy holiday in
which you are expected to do nothing that you do not
wish to do. Days are spent swimming or exploring the
turquoise deep with your snorkel, reading your favourite
novel, trying the delicious Turkish cuisine, drinking
something wonderful, sun bathing , playing cards and
generally relaxing. Water skis and jet skis are available
for rent from most beaches and land trips to plenty
of ancient ruins to visit are extras.You can even
fish for your supper which the cook will gladly prepare
for you. Mealtimes are another form of  entertainment
with all that exquisite Turkish cuisine and wonderful
conversation. Having a meal under the stars on a dead
flat sea gently lapping the sides of the boat is an
experience not to be missed. It is like a holiday
in a hotel with all the rooms overlooking the sea
but every day the scenery changes. For those who prefer
a different view each day and are prepared for the
changing moods of Mother Nature then a holiday on
a gulet is the perfect solution.
What to bring with you
You only need casual wear; non slip foot wear, your
swimming gear ,a sun hat, some T-shirts and shorts,
a sweater for cool evenings and for excursions and
climbs blue jeans and strong footwear. Instead of
one large suitcase, we recommend that you take two
smallish soft bags as they are far more convenient
when it comes to stowing them away in your cabin.
What else? Some towels, a mini first aid kit including
antihistamine cream plus toiletries. Soap is available
upon request and one hand towel each plus bedding
is provided. For the gentlemen who don't want to grow
a holiday beard, a battery operated razor and shaving
soap. Please be forewarned that electrical appliances
may only be connected whilst the yacht is tied up
to land, so have everything readily recharged.
Security
With the safety and enjoyment she offers, a gulet
is the best initiation to yachting.Anyone can travel
on a gulet.The crew is accustomed to the sensitiveness
of the new passengers.The greatest phobia of landlubbers,
seasickness, comes to pass in a few hours even at
its worst.The blue voyage consists of legs that keep
the yacht motoring or sailing for only 2 to 4 hours
a day, from one secure bay to another.
Your crew
 On
a gulet, the crew is charged with serving the passengers,
as well as running the yacht.Crews usually consist
of a Captain, Cook and Seaman/Mechanic and on the
larger gulets a fourth crew member will be at your
service.They are very friendly permitting a relaxed
atmosphere but at the same time extremely professional
knowing the coastal waters and their yachts inside
out.Due to their life on the sea, the crew members
are a mind of information on the local history and
surroundings being able to advise on the best places
to snorkel and anchor etc.Also you can get some super
tips from the cook on local cuisine.Of course they
are all water sport lovers and some even good divers.The
crew will be glad to help out as far as their duties
will permit and are there to give you an unforgettable
Blue Voyage making you want to return just as the
majority of our clients
