  •  Have you had experience with having kids on board?
     We love having kids on board. The kids love us too!!

  • Will the meals be served on board?
    We like spending the evenings in remote bays and try to avoid the lights and sounds of noisy restaurants, beach clubs and marinas. So eating on board becomes the best choice. The cook of the yacht is superb. We will have excellent examples of the Turkish/Mediterranean Cuisine. Should the tour members insist eating out, we can certainly in certain places, facilitate their request as well. ( Your preference of HB/BB/FB will be indicated in the included items of the quotation)
  •  Can we bring our own provision and have the chef cook for us?
      Certainly this can be an option.

    Tea, and coffee served all day long and water served with meals are included in the price . The alcoholic drinks and the soft drinks are not included in the price. There will be a chart for the drinks. When the clients ask for a drink they will mark under the drink they ordered. At the end of the tour, they will pay for what they have consumed.

    No, it is not. there is a very stable 7-step ladder that help you walk down into the water. If you need help, the crew can happily assist you.
  • Are we allowed to wear shoes on board?
    The Captain requests no shoes to be worn on board unless you have just boat shoes

  • If we bring our own music, can we play it?
    There is a CD player, you can bring your own CDs if you like.

  • Will we have opportunity to go ashore?
    The best part of cruising along the Turkish coast is that we always sail along the beautiful shore where the leaves of the trees in the forests hand their branches as if trying to hold the hand of the sea. This shore line is spotted with many ancient sites. On our tour we will make sure that we enjoy the antiquities hidden in the trees and discover the goat paths that are unreachable from the main land by road.

  •  Is there a dingy that we can use if  we want to go ashore?  
    Yes, there is a dingy that holds 5 people. One of the crew will happily take you off the boat whenever you want

     Yes, there are sufficient number of all these. The flippers are for shoe size 37 - 44.

    Depending on the preference of the clients these might change. However, some of our most popular traditions on board are
    1. Celebrating the sun set with Champaign
    2. Cooking class on board
    3. At least for once, the captain throws the net at night so we can have fish that we catch our selves.
    4. We play / teach backgammon
    5. We let our clients steer the wheel

  • Should we worry about sea creatures such as sharks etc?
    No, not at all. the Turkish coast has very friendly waters. One disadvantage of this do not expect to find to much of a underwater life as you would have in the Caribbean's or the Red Sea.

  •  What will the weather be like in June?
    There will be a nice breeze in the afternoon. The evenings will  be cool but if any body likes to sleep on the deck under the starts you can do it with a light bed cover ( Available in board)
