Ceylan

Ceylan is a 20 metre gulet, built in 2004 and refitted in 2010, with a beam of 5 metres and a draft of 2 metres. Her shallow draft and compact proportions suit the coves and bays of the Turkish coast, where a smaller vessel can come close to the shore and anchor in quiet water. She is a traditional gulet in scale and character, designed for unhurried days at sea rather than long passages.

She carries up to six guests across three guest cabins, with a crew of three attending to the boat throughout the charter. The guest accommodation is arranged to give each party its own space, and the crew's presence means that the day can be shaped around the rhythm of the group, whether that means an early swim, a long lunch at anchor or an afternoon spent on the water.

Ceylan's home port is Fethiye, on the southwestern coast of Türkiye, and her cruising is confined to Turkish waters. The region offers sheltered bays, clear water and a steady succession of anchorages, which makes it well suited to a guest who wishes to spend time in the sea as much as on the deck.

Her overall character is practical and comfortable. She is not a vessel of ostentation but of good sense, with a layout and equipment list chosen for the pleasures of a week spent afloat on a coast that rewards patience and curiosity.
