     A Gulet                        

        

 

 

 

A gulet is a Turkish wooden yacht, built  in traditional Mediterranean style for comfortable recreational voyages.

 

It is designed to cruise in combination of sailing and motoring

 

Number of passengers a gulet carries is between 8 to 24 which depends on its size. 

 

The most common gulet is around  24-meter long  and  7-meter wide (82 x 23 feet) that accommodates 12 passengers in six cabins.

 

It has a crew of four or five, a captain, a cook and two - three sailors. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  Each cabin has a double berth       

  or twins, a toilet and shower. So   

  a gulet is a kind of  floating hotel

  with wonderful food on board.
