Altair

Altair is an 11.4-metre sailing yacht built in 2003, berthed at Ece Marina and available exclusively as a whole-boat charter for private groups. With three cabins and space for six guests, she offers an intimate setting where a small group of friends or family can take full possession of the vessel, its deck and its interior, without sharing the experience with anyone else.

Ece Marina sits at the heart of Fethiye's cruising grounds, within easy reach of Göcek's sheltered coves, the islands scattered across Fethiye Bay and the broader blue cruise routes that extend along Turkey's Turquoise Coast. From this base you can plan a single-day sail through nearby anchorages, or arrange a multi-day passage that lets the itinerary evolve with the wind and the weather. That flexibility is one of the defining qualities of a sailing charter: the route is not fixed in advance, and conditions on the water often reveal destinations that no map would have suggested.

What distinguishes Altair from a motor yacht charter is the mode of travel itself. Under sail, the engine quietens and the movement changes, hull cutting through water with the rhythm of the breeze rather than the beat of a machine. For guests who want to feel the wind rather than simply arrive at a location, this 2003-built sloop delivers a genuinely different quality of time at sea.

The three-cabin layout is well matched to groups of four to six. All common areas, the saloon, the cockpit and the deck, belong to the whole group for the duration of the charter. Altair is chartered as a single private unit, so there is no question of splitting space with other parties. If you are looking for a sailing yacht charter based out of Ece Marina and want a vessel sized for a close-knit group, Altair is worth considering.
