Turkey Mersin to Turkey Marmaris.
Just simple cruising and sightseeing along the Turkish coast. Will be some night sailing, also. Water temperature should be some 20+, so a lot of swimming. Experience not really required, but does not hurt. We will stop, wind permitting in Kas and Kekova among...

Sea Miles 10,000+
The sea is most my life. I work on merchant vessels and in much of my spare time, of which I have a lot, I sail. I work sometimes as captain on sail training vessels. I love teaching the kids and showing most of them something very different from their normal life. Most of my miles (100000+) have been done on my own yachts, though. I love sailing, not so much as a means of getting from place to place, but the sailing itself. The shifting character of the sea, the forces on the boat, everything balancing out. Calms, storms, rain, sunshine, cold, heat, all part of the experience. Very much into boat performance. I come from a racing background.

Boat description78' LOA, 73' LOD ULDB ketch, narrow hull, simple interior but comfortable. Good pentry, 3 cabins, 2 heads, pressurised fresh water, fridge, bimini, 2 dinghies, 2 outboards, Kayak, A/C (only on shore power, heating. Storage is unfortunately very limited. Safety gear depending on cruising area. Always survival suits onboard. Built originally for ocean racing. Long waterline and low displacement make this a very fast and fun to sail cruising yacht, without much drama, though. Logg, echo sounder, wind instrument, autopilot, nav computer, VHF, AIS, Sat tracker. This boat is made for sailing more than marina living. She has a narrow hull and is very different from modern production boats. Hull built to high specifications, with excellent quality. Interior has very little wood, though. all done in fiberglass foam core composite to save weight.

Great Trip
I sailed with Martin three years ago in the Cyclades for 11 days. The boat is fantastically beautiful. Pure joy. Racing quality. All the facilities aboard are top class. Martin is a great skipper and a good man to be around.
