Bodrum Gulet · 19m (1986)

Bodrum Gulet · 19m (1986) is a wooden gulet berthed at Bodrum Marina, built in 1986 by Turkish shipwrights working predominantly by hand. After nearly four decades of continuous sea use, the original construction remains structurally sound. That integrity is visible in the salon joinery, across the three private cabins and throughout the hull itself, a vessel shaped by skilled craftsmen rather than pressed from a production mould. The timber you see throughout the interior is not a decorative veneer laid over a modern composite shell; it is the actual material from which this gulet was built and the material that continues to hold it together today.

At 19 metres, the gulet carries enough displacement to handle multi-day coastal passages with confidence while remaining agile enough to reach the shallow, sheltered coves along the Bodrum Peninsula that heavier, deeper-draughted charter yachts simply cannot enter. For a group wanting to anchor away from the busiest summer anchorages and spend time in quieter, less-frequented water, that combination of size and draft offers a real and practical advantage when planning a Bodrum yacht charter.

The yacht is available exclusively as a whole-boat private charter for up to six guests. Once you leave Bodrum Marina, the three cabins, the aft deck and the saloon are entirely your group's own. No other passengers share the boat, and no fixed itinerary is imposed. Groups with limited time can plan a day cruise among the less-frequented inlets of the Bodrum Peninsula. Those with more flexibility can arrange a blue cruise over several days along the Aegean coastline, choosing their own pace and anchorages as they go.

The Bodrum gulet charter market offers a steady supply of newer composite vessels with uniform, mass-produced interiors. This 1986-built gulet serves a different kind of traveller: one who values slow travel, genuine craftsmanship and a real connection to the sea rather than a standardised charter product. If that describes your group, this yacht makes a compelling and honest case. Contact us for availability and a tailored quote.
