Marlin 1

Marlin 1 is a sailing yacht launched in 2023, measuring 14.27 metres in length and offering four private cabins for up to eight guests. Based at the Yacht Classic Hotel marina in Bodrum, she represents a genuinely recent build, which means her interior fittings, onboard equipment and overall condition reflect current standards rather than years of accumulated wear.

The sailing format itself sets Marlin 1 apart from the motor-yacht and gulet fleet. Guests who charter her can expect quieter passages driven by the Aegean wind rather than engine noise, and the particular rhythm of a sailing trip: adjusting the sails in the morning, finding a sheltered cove by early afternoon, spending the warm hours of the day swimming off the stern. With four separate cabins, a group of eight can each have a proper private space without the vessel feeling crowded.

From her base at Yacht Classic Hotel, day cruises to Bodrum's surrounding bays are a natural choice: the calm waters around Gümüşlük, the inlets of Hisarönü Gulf and the quieter anchorages along the Bodrum peninsula are all within comfortable reach. For those who want to go further, a multi-day blue cruise along the Aegean coastline can be planned, following the wind south towards the Datça peninsula or west toward open water.

Marlin 1 is chartered exclusively as a whole boat for one private group. Every cabin, the deck and all shared spaces on board belong solely to the guests who book her; there is no shared arrangement with other parties. This gives the group complete control over the daily schedule, the choice of anchorage and the pace of the trip.
