Boat Types
Gulets
Gulets are two or three masted sailing vessels. They’re most preferred type
of vessels for Yacht Charter in Turkey. Gulets, thanks to their spacious
cabins, offer very comfortable living spaces. Gulets are only available with
the crew and as a result, captain, chef and servant personnel accompany the
passengers throughout the vacation.
Duration of air conditioning usage for standard and air conditioned category
boats varies between 4-8 hours per day. In Luxury and Deluxe category, duration
of air conditioning usage is about 8-24 hours per day.
Catamarans
Catamarans are a double hulled boat type that offers comfortable Yacht
Charter experience with wide living space and well deck. Because of unique
construction, Catamarans
offer spacious living spaces. In addition to that, as a result of the double
hulled design, Catamarans do not get affected by the waves as much as the other
vessels.
On Catamarans air conditioning can be used
without restriction if there is a generator aboard. In case there is no
generator aboard, you must acquire electricity from the marinas along your
route and use air conditioning accordingly. However this will result in
additional costs depending on pricing of that marina.
Motor Yachts
Motor yachts are known for versatility, they offer higher speeds than the
rest while maintaining comfort as well.
Furthermore, for those who do not have much time, it is also preferred solely
because of the speed factor. However, its mostly preferred by the people who
desire full range of versatility.
Because of varying lengths, number of cabins and the equipment, motor yachts
appeal to all tastes. Motor yachts, equipped with modern maritime trends in
mind, are usually preferred with the crew.
On Motor Yachts, air conditioning can be used without restriction if there is a
generator aboard.
