Dear Homo Sapiens, There is no need to continue reading this page. What follows is intended for search engine robots and spiders and not necessarily for human beings. Further information concerning gulets charter-sailing Turkey and Greece may be obtained by clicking on the blue links immediately above. Thank You. Are you searching for a yacht charter-sailing Turkey or Greece? Could you be thinking of charter sailing under a Turkish sun? Are you hoping to go charter sailing from one isolated cove in Turkey to the next isolated cove in Turkey? Or are you dreaming of swimming under azure skies in Greece? Of charter sailing in Greece among sugar-cube encrusted islands of the mid-Aegean? Or both? How about charter sailing both Turkey and Greece aboard a crewed charter yacht with comfortable Charter 
Sailing Turkeyaccommodations for twelve. A crewed charter yacht like Sevket Kaptan, sometimes called Kaptan Sevket. How about chartering this crewed sailing yacht to cruise the Gulf of Bodrum. Known in Greece as the Gulf of Kos. Known in antiquity as the Ceramic Gulf. A gulf with a good afternoon breeze. A gulf with flat water. Sometimes both. Or how about chartering this crewed sailing gulet to cruise Cleopatra's honeymoon route along the Turkish coasts of ancient Lycia and Caria and among Greek Dodecanese islands. While you holiday. While you have a family holiday aboard a crewed sailing yacht doing all of this. Perhaps an extended-family holiday. One not just with brothers and sisters but with cousins, too. Or would you prefer to have a group of friends holiday with you aboard a charter yacht proceeding leisurely from intriguing locale in Turkey to intriguing locale in Greece? Perhaps a charter sailing yacht cruising the Cyclades of mid-Aegean Greece. Or a charter sailing gulet to cruise further along the Mediterranean coast of Turkey. Starting in Bodrum. To Gocek. Or to Antalya. Or further. Are you familiar with the saga of Sidi Ali Reis? The poet and author? Born in 1498 in Istanbul's Galata district, Sidi Ali was the son and grandson of Ottoman seamen and at a young age went to work in the naval shipyard on the Golden Horn. Later, according to his memoirs, he was one of Kheir-ed-Din Barbarossa's sea captains and was at the 1538 Battle of Preveza when Barbarossa outwitted Genoa's Andrea Doria. He was also with Turgut Reis (Dragut) when in 1551 Tripoli was taken from the Knights of Malta. In 1554 he was appointed to command of an Ottoman flotilla then at Basra (yes, the Basra in Iraq) and directed to show the Ottoman flag in the Indian Ocean. He did, but in doing so encountered a storm of no mean proportions which destroyed all fifteen of his vessels on the Indian coast. Trapped there in the fashion of Xenophon's Anabasis, he began a long overland trek home, frequently rescuing his crew from hostile sovereigns by declaiming poetically. Upon his return to Istanbul he presented to his sultan an account of his Anabasis entitled Mirat ul Memalik (The Mirror of Countries). The sultan, Suleiman, giving evidence that the pen is more powerful than the sword, rather than punish Sidi Ali for losing his flotilla instead rewarded him with a handsome pension which supported his writing, including a book on navigation entitled The Ocean. Well, we can put you aboard a charter sailing yacht for unforgettable navigation through waters closer to Sidi Ali's home. We can put you aboard a charter yacht with an experienced crew able to show you the flat sailing waters of the Gulf of Bodrum, able to show you Alexander's Path down the coasts of Caria and Lycia, able to show you Cleopatra's Route up the coast of Turkey and among Greek islands.
