Lagoon 46

What our clients say!

Dear Necmi,
Everything went very well. The yacht – Dufour 385 – was in a good condition and, as I discovered, very easy to steer, also when pushing back. Gocek is always a good place to start, with a lot of restaurants in small bays nearby. Fethye is only a few hours sailing away. The one-way charter is not a bad choice, because the relatively long way from Fethye/Gocek gulf to Marmaris with less places convenient to stop has to be taken into account only once. That offers the chance to visit more places, drop the anchor in more bays, than in case one has to think about returning to the marina of origin in time.

All in all, we enjoyed the trip very much and unexpectedly, it was as warm in September as it was end of July.

This year I don't think I have a chance to sail once more, but next year at the earliest convenience, when weather condition are preferable I will….

Dear Necmi,

We had an absolutely fabulous time on Pulp and Paper (Beneteau Oceanis 50)! Thank you very much for your help with everything and for recommending the boat. Despite being 5 years old, all the instruments, fittings, sail and rigging were in very good working order. We didn't have any problems at all in the 2 weeks we were on it. Despite its size, the four of us were able to sail, berth and moor the boat very easily.

Checking in was also a pleasure. The boat was ready for early check-in, as requested, so thank you for that too. Cigdem was ready and waiting for us at the boat to do the check-in paperwork, and it was fast and hassle-free. (In charters we've been on before we had to wait in charter offices for more than one hour to sort out paperwork etc. After being on a 20+ hour flight from Australia, the last thing we wanted was to stand in a hot, crowded office to do paperwork!)

So thank you again. We love sailing and cruising in Turkey. The coast is very well set up for sailing, people are friendly and welcoming and there are so many interesting places to see and things to do. We will definitely go back to see more!

Thank you Mr. Artar.

We enjoyed our sailing vacation immensely. The boat was in great shape and the staff was very helpful. I would unequivocably recommend booking a bareboat charter through Boating Turkey.

Dear Necmi, Rusen and Boating Turkey

We would like to thank you for the most amazing week on board the Jasmin 1.

We had the most wonderful relaxed and stress free family holiday ever. The sea was warm and so beautiful and we spend many happy hours swimming and snorkelling.

The boat was beautiful and the crew was so accommodating and friendly, always striving to make us happy. Our captain always docked in the best spots in the most beautiful little bays and our chef put together some wonderful meals, including some lovely desserts. We were even spoilt with baked cake with afternoon tea. Our captain did the barbecuing or braaing as we know it in South Africa. He was an absolute champ at cooking on the open fire on the deck. Burak, the third crew member assisted in all areas. He was an absolute character and kept my family entertained. His new name being 007.

Thank you to the entire crew for making our boating week so special. A holiday that my family will remember with very special memories for a very long time.Turkey is a very special place to visit. We loved exploring the coast on the boat. Bodrum was absolutely charming and our second visit to Istanbul was as amazing as our first. The people of Turkey are kind, giving, friendly and honourable. My family will definitely return to Turkey.

Take care and greetings to you all.
