Bodrum Gulet · 25m (1995)

Built at the Bodrum yards in 1995, this 25-metre wooden gulet represents a generation of Turkish craftsmanship that is becoming genuinely difficult to find in active charter service. Authentic mid-1990s timber hulls are growing scarce on the water, and this vessel remains among the small number still operating from Bodrum Marina on a consistent private-charter basis. The quality of its upkeep is evident throughout: seasoned deck planking, well-maintained hardware and the warmth of aged timber create a presence that purpose-built modern hulls rarely replicate. Guests who have previously sailed traditional wooden gulets tend to recognise the difference from the first moment on board.

Five private cabins accommodate up to ten guests, and the yacht operates exclusively as a whole-boat hire for a single private group. From the moment you cast off from Bodrum Marina, every cabin, the salon and the full run of deck space belong entirely to your party. For families, groups of close friends, or any gathering that values complete autonomy over the pace and direction of a voyage, this arrangement works particularly well: meals on your own schedule, swim stops chosen on impulse, and evenings at anchor without any shared timetable to observe.

At 25 metres, the gulet fits comfortably into sheltered anchorages along the Bodrum peninsula that larger vessels simply cannot reach. That manoeuvrability translates into real flexibility on a coastline rich in quiet coves and calm bays. For groups with limited time, day cruises among the bays of the Bodrum peninsula are a natural and satisfying choice. If your schedule allows, a multi-day Aegean blue cruise is equally within reach, with pace and course shaped spontaneously by conditions and mood.

Bodrum gulet charters that combine genuine 1990s wooden construction with full private use are harder to secure each season. Contact us for current availability, rates and help planning an itinerary around your dates.
