About

We are a family owned business. We don't use expensive marketing strategies, make exaggerated claims, or offer an impersonal service. In fact, we pride ourselves on giving our customers a unique, customized yacht charter experience that is unparalleled in the market place; when it comes to crewed boat rental in Turkey, we believe that we've got the edge. Both my wife and I are avid fans of travelling and are always excited to meet new people; first and foremost, we love making new friends and we are both adventurous souls. My love affair with the ocean began almost a decade ago, during my studies, when I was entrusted to run the family boat during the summers between University years, largely offering private boat tours in Kas. Upon graduating, with an economics degree, I was faced with the not so straightforward task of deciding what to do with my life. While my friends were all attracted to high paying office jobs, my summers spent running boat trips in Kas had had a deep and telling impact on my internal dialogue. Rather than taking the traditional path into employment, I decided to follow my heart and continue to run the family boat, full time. It was a decision that I didn't take lightly, but it's certainly one that I feel thankful that I made, each and every day. My wife, who also owns a Seaman's license, shares my passion for adventure and is a valuable member of our team. Like most Turkish women, she's an exceptional cook, who is able to create the most sumptuous of dishes, from the most basic of produce. I don't know how the business would run without her; our boat trips in Kas just wouldn't be the same. My wife and I run boat trips in Kas during the summer months, spending the winters travelling the world. It's been a long, hard road, building our business together, but we believe that our passion is what has got us this far. And we don't intend on stopping anytime soon.
