Lauda

Lauda is a 12.4-metre sailing yacht launched in 2023 and berthed at Lykia Yacht Club on the Lycian coast. Available exclusively as a whole-boat charter, every space on board, from the cockpit and deck to the saloon and cabins, is reserved entirely for one private group throughout the booking period. No strangers, no shared areas, and no compromises on privacy.

The 2023 build date is one of the most concrete advantages Lauda brings to the Lykia yacht charter market. Standing and running rigging, deck hardware and cabin interiors have completed only a handful of seasons, meaning onboard systems still perform closely to how they did when the yacht was new. On a sailing yacht, the condition of the rig and mechanical systems shapes every passage in a way that specifications alone cannot convey. The gradual fatigue that accumulates on older hulls simply has not had time to develop here, and along a coastline where conditions can shift quickly, that mechanical reliability translates into confident sail handling and smooth passages for everyone on board.

Three private cabins accommodate six guests in total, making Lauda a natural fit for two or three couples travelling together, a close-knit group of friends, or a family that wants shared time on deck alongside the privacy of a dedicated cabin at the end of each day. From Lykia Yacht Club, you can plan a straightforward day sail into one of the sheltered coves along the Lycian shore, anchoring in calm, clear water for a long afternoon swim. Groups with more flexibility can arrange a multi-day blue cruise along this stretch of coast, where ancient Lycian ruins sit close to the waterline and the daily route can shift freely according to wind, weather and mood.

The moment the sails fill and the engine goes quiet, the character of the voyage changes in a way that a motor vessel simply cannot replicate. Between passages, the cockpit and saloon provide a relaxed setting for meals and conversation, while the deck becomes the natural gathering point during daylight hours.
