What is a Gulet?
A Gulet is a large wooden motor yacht usually made of wood. many
years ago they were used primarily as commercial trade vessels
transporting goods around the coast. Modern Gulets are still made to
the original design having 1, 2 and sometimes 3 masts. The engines
are large enough to power the yacht for its entire voyage, however
when the wind is favorable these yachts can achieve reasonable
speeds under sail. There are three main types of Gulet in Turkey,
the standard Gulet, the Ayna Ketch and the Tirhandil. Of the three
types, the Tirhandil is the closest to the original Gulet design and
the most suited for cruising under sail. The only changes to the
original design was the development of the Ketch Gulet which has a
raised aft deck accommodating between 1 and 4 cabins below. Most
modern charter Gulets are of this type since they accommodate more
cabins.
