PERLA DEL MAR 1

Built in 2012, this is a modern gulet with the motor sailor's combination of traditional lines and contemporary systems. She suits a group of up to sixteen who want a sociable boat with a relaxed rhythm, whether that means a family gathering, a set of friends or colleagues travelling together. Her character is practical rather than showy: she is designed to carry a full complement of guests in comfort and to be sailed along a well-known stretch of coast.

She has eight cabins in total, six doubles and two twins, which gives sixteen guests a bed each in pairs of cabins. At 27 metres in length and 7 metres in beam, she has the dimensions to carry this number of guests without feeling cramped on deck. No master or VIP cabin is listed in her configuration, so the accommodation is laid out as a set of equal doubles and twins rather than a single owner's suite. Her cabins suit guests who value space shared across the boat.

The outdoor areas are kept simple. There are sun mattresses for lounging and a deck shower for rinsing off after a swim. Snorkelling equipment is carried for time in the water, which suits the sheltered coves of the region. Her navigation kit includes VHF, depth sounder, radar, GPS, compass, chart plotter, autopilot and satellite communication, and the full equipment list is available on request.

Perla Del Mar 1 cruises the Bodrum Peninsula, Göcek and Fethiye, Marmaris and Datça, and Kaş and Kekova, with routes extending into the Dodecanese. Charters are available from May to October. She is operated by an experienced and dedicated crew, who manage the vessel and the day-to-day service throughout the charter.
