These are sailing yachts,
up to 50 ft, can be chartered without a professional crew aboard. The boats in our bareboat fleet include Beneteau Oceanis, Kirie Feelings, Jeanneau Sun,
and other European made boats. We offer over 70 bareboats available for charter in Turkey.
To skipper your own boat requires that two people in your crew hold a skipper's license or certificate from a yacht club or sailing organization stating your experience in seamanship & offshore navigation. On a bareboat charter, your sailing yacht is your own boat for the length of your charter. You are the captain or you can hire ours to assist you or to take over the entire sailing responsibility. When it's time to select the itinerary or drop anchor, the choice is yours: pick a quiet cove for a swim and lunch then sail off to the small port or anchorage for the night. The selection of beautiful places to choose is unlimited: a quiet idyllic spot with crystal clear water, a town rich in historic sites to visit, the fun and frolic of traditional Turkish style, and so much more.
Even if no one in your group has the sailing experience or wants the responsibility of a skipper and prefers to relax and enjoy the sailing vacation, then hire one of our skippers. If you choose to have our skipper on board, you possibly have the best of all worlds. You have the benefit of local knowledge, someone who quickly becomes your trusted friend to suggest the best places to visit, the quiet or most entertaining night spots, someone to explain the local traditions, a chance to sharpen your sailing skills with our professionally licensed skippers. Your skipper will guide your sailing in these new waters. Taking our skipper on board does not reflect on your sailing ability. We have had solo trans-Atlantic sailors hire our skipper for their charter. Your guide must be to decide the kind of sailing vacation you want. |
