this page. What follows is intended for search engine robots and spiders and not necessarily
for human beings. Further information concerning luxury yacht charters in Turkey and Greece may
be obtained by clicking on the blue links immediately above. Thank You. Are you searching
for a luxury yacht charter in Turkey? Or for a luxury yacht charter in Greece? We hope so, because
the only other search phrase which might bring you to this web page would be Xenosaga3. While
aga is a Turkish word meaning lord or master, Xenosaga3 has nothing to do with Turkey. Nor
with Greece. Nor with luxury yacht charters. Xenosaga3 is a Play Station game entitled Also
sprach Zarathustra, the game itself beyond the comprehension of most adults, and this web page
has nothing to do with it. While the luxury yacht Xenos III flies the German flag, neither does she
have anything to do with Friedrich Nietzsche who came up with that title in the first place. Xenos
III has, however, everything to do with luxury yacht charters in Turkey and Greece. Whether you were
searching for Xenosaga3 or for luxury yacht charters in Turkey and Greece, please consider the latter.
Consider cruising among Greek islands under a soft Aegean sun. Consider sailing through isolated
pine-shrouded clear-water coves along Turkey's Turquoise Coast. Consider doing both, sailing Turkey
and sailing Greece. On the same holiday! Both can be done. Why not do both aboard a luxury charter
yacht with accommodations for five guest couples? Why not charter such a yacht and begin your holiday
by cruising Turkey's ancient Lycia, the scenically striking home of so many of the Iliad's Trojan
heroes. Or begin your holiday by |
sailing Kara Hasan's early 16th century corsair tracks along the west coast of Turkey
and among neighboring Greek islands. Kara Hasan did it not with a luxury yacht but with a
squadron of fast galliots (small galleys with up to 22 oars to a side such as that depicted
at left) preying on Venetian shipping and Venetian communities in the Aegean. That
was before taking his squadron to Tunisia where he sailed in company with the Barbarossa brothers
during the first twenty years of the XVI Century, raiding the coasts of Spain and Italy while also
preying on merchant shipping. Kara is a modern Turkish word meaning black. When used as
a sobriquet five hundred years ago, however, it often meant brave or strong or
signified manly beauty. In Kara Hasan's case it may have signified a substantial ego because in 1520
he seized Cherchell in Algeria and proclaimed himself Emir. Would you like to sail this corsair's
earlier Aegean tracks while you holiday at the crossroads of history? Among Greek islands once Venetian?
Learning of his local conquests? Or would you prefer to simply cruise with family and friends or
corporate associates from port to port? Parking with your yacht's stern opposite a taverna
serving octopus in vinegar? With a glass of wine? Cruising far into the Aegean. To the Cyclades. Or are
the nearer Greek Dodecanese far enough? Starting in Turkey? Starting in Bodrum? Or Gocek? Are you
searching for Gocek in Turkey? Or are you wondering about Kara Hasan? He met his end in 1521 at the hands
not of Venetians but of the younger Barbarossa as in that part of the world there could be only one corsair
boss. And it was not Kara Hasan. Here or there we can put you aboard a crewed luxury yacht for the holiday of
a lifetime. We can put you aboard a charter yacht with an experienced crew able to show you the tracks
both of Kara Hasan and of the Barbarossa brothers, able to show you Freya Stark's 1952 track from Izmir
through the Dodecanese and along the coasts of Caria and Lycia to Phaselis in the Gulf of Antalya,
able to show you Cleopatra's 32 BC honeymoon route west along the south coast of Asia Minor and among
Greek islands. And we can discuss why Kara Hasan met his end at the hands of Khizr Reis, the younger
Barbarossa. So, too, can the crew of Xenos III, a luxury yacht available for charter in Turkey and Greece.
