Question 3

Are rentals only weekly?

Accepted Answer

Yes, all boat rentals are scheduled on aweekly basis. Saturdays are check-in and check-out days.

Question 4

How do we handle food on the boat?

Accepted Answer

Sailing boats and catamarans are rented without a crew (bareboat) and food preparation is done by the guests. Optionally, you can request a crew to assist you in meal preparation. However, since the living space of sailboats is smaller, we would like to remind you that having the crew stay on the boat may cause an uncomfortable experience.

On gulets, food service is provided by the crew in the morning, lunch and evening. You can do your shopping yourself on the day of boarding the boat, or you can have it loaded onto the boat by the crew in advance upon order.

On motor yachts, food service is usually provided by the crew.

Are there restaurants in the bays we will visit?

Accepted Answer

There are many beautiful restaurants in the bays of Marmaris, Hisarönü and Göcek. It is enough to make a reservation a few days in advance. We usually dock at their pier to go to restaurants. We benefit from services such as electricity, water and garbage, if available. Since we do not pay for these services, we do not dock at the piers unless we are going to eat 
 
 at the restauntants.
