Her Story

Grand Admiral stands as a testament to Turkish maritime excellence, launched in 2006 from the renowned Ayna Tershanesi shipyard in Fethiye under the expert guidance of naval architect and stylist Tahir Nezihi Ozdemir. This magnificent 45-metre gulet underwent a comprehensive refit in 2018, ensuring she meets the highest standards of modern luxury while preserving her authentic Turkish character.

Her impressive dimensions speak to her commanding presence on the water—with an overall length of 63 metres including her bowsprit, a substantial 9.10-metre beam provides exceptional stability and spacious living areas. The twin 450HP Iveco engines deliver a maximum cruising speed of 14 knots under power, while her traditional sail configuration spans 460 square metres across towering 36-metre masts, capable of reaching 6 knots under sail alone.

The heart of Grand Admiral lies in her spectacular 200-square-metre salon—one of the largest afloat—creating an unparalleled social space for guests. Her robust construction includes a 4.20-metre draft for ocean-going capability, supported by generous fuel capacity of 6 tonnes and 32 tonnes of fresh water storage. Advanced systems include twin 42KW Iveco generators, an 800-litre-per-hour water processing unit, and a fully automatic Blue Sea 7000 waste treatment system.

Built under Turkish Lloyd certification and flying the Istanbul flag, Grand Admiral represents the pinnacle of traditional Turkish gulet design enhanced with contemporary luxury amenities and air conditioning throughout, ensuring comfort even in 40°C temperatures.

The Onboard Experience

Grand Scale Adventures

Where spacious luxury meets endless horizons.

The magnificent 200-square-metre salon forms the social heart of Grand Admiral, featuring a sophisticated plasma television and DVD entertainment system alongside a Raymarin satellite dish for seamless connectivity. This expansive space flows seamlessly between indoor and outdoor living, creating an unmatched environment for gatherings and relaxation.

On deck, guests enjoy the freedom of dual steering stations and comprehensive safety equipment including life rafts certified for 44 people. The professional galley comes fully equipped with commercial-grade oven, grill, deep fryer, and dedicated storage facilities, ensuring exceptional dining experiences throughout your voyage.

Adventure seekers will appreciate the two tenders—a powerful 60HP dinghy for exploration and watersports, complemented by a 30HP utility tender for easy transfers. The hydraulic sail and windlass systems, combined with advanced navigation including SAT NAV, radar, and GPS, ensure both traditional sailing pleasure and modern safety standards.

Guest Accommodation

Floating Sanctuary

Spacious retreats designed for groups seeking shared luxury.

Grand Admiral offers accommodation for up to 36 guests across thoughtfully designed cabins, each appointed with individual air conditioning systems capable of maintaining comfort even in extreme 40°C temperatures. The generous layout ensures privacy and comfort for larger charter groups while maintaining the intimate atmosphere characteristic of traditional gulet design.

Every guest cabin features en-suite facilities and has been carefully appointed during the 2018 refit to blend authentic Turkish craftsmanship with contemporary amenities. The accommodation layout maximizes the gulet's substantial 9.10-metre beam, creating spacious retreats that feel more like floating suites than traditional marine cabins.
