Be Happy

Be Happy is a 20-metre wooden gulet built in 1994 and berthed at Bodrum Marina. Five private cabins accommodate up to ten guests, and the yacht is chartered exclusively as a full-boat booking: a single group has every cabin, the full deck, the salon and all shared areas to themselves for the entire duration of the trip.

A wooden hull from 1994 is a genuinely uncommon presence in today's Bodrum charter fleet. Timber delivers qualities that modern composite construction rarely matches: a responsive, living motion through open water, a reassuring weight and solidity underfoot, and a depth of character that only decades of active sea life can produce. Guests who have sailed aboard Be Happy rather than newer fibreglass vessels frequently note the difference within hours of casting off, and that impression tends to hold across every day at sea.

Departing from Bodrum Marina, the yacht suits a wide range of plans. For a shorter outing, you can drop anchor in a sheltered cove along the Bodrum Peninsula in the morning, swim from the stern through the midday heat, and return to the marina well before evening. Groups with more time can plan a multi-night blue cruise along the Aegean coastline at their own pace, with no fixed schedule to adhere to. The five-cabin layout works as well for a tight circle of friends as it does for a multi-generational family trip.

Throughout the charter, the crew handles all navigation, provisioning and on-board logistics, so guests can direct their full attention to the sea, the coastline and each other.
