Are you searching for a sailing yacht vacation cruising Greece? Or for an oak-framed, chestnut-hulled, motor-sailer vacation cruising Turkey? Are you considering a yacht charter cruising the eastern Mediterranean? Or a yacht charter holiday cruising from Greek Aegean island to Greek Aegean island? Whichever or all of the above, how about vacation cruising aboard a crewed charter gulet with accommodations for twelve. A gulet familiar with the west coast of Turkey and neighboring Sporades and Dodecanese islands of Greece. A gulet such as Elifsu II cruising in the wake of Salah Reis, wake left between 1520 and 1526. A holiday cruise. That's right, have a family-and-friends holiday cruise aboard a crewed sailing yacht exploring the crossroads of history. Have a holiday cruise aboard a charter yacht proceeding leisurely from one intriguing locale to another. Perhaps detouring into and among mid-Aegean Cyclades as did Salah Reis. Salah Reis (Salah Captain) at the time was a privateer, to put it politely, preying on Venetian and other Christian shipping. Later he proved himself to be one of Kheir-ed-Din Barbarossa's more able sea captains, distinguishing himself at the battle of Formentera in 1529 and in fleet action off Levkas nine years later. He also distinguished himself at the 1565 Siege of Malta, commanding 15,000 Ottoman troops in the storming of Fort Saint Michael. For more on Salah Reis click here. Sounds interesting, doesn't it. Chartering a crewed yacht to cruise in Salah's wake under an Aegean sun reflecting on an azure sea. Starting in Bodrum. Or Gocek. Are you searching for Gocek in Turkey? For Fethiye in Turkey? Well, they may be found in the far corners of that big gulf forty miles ENE of Rhodes Town. There or elsewhere we can put you aboard a crewed sailing yacht for a holiday to remember. We can put you aboard a holiday cruising yacht with an experienced crew able to show you the flat sailing waters of the Gulfs of Gocek and Fethiye, able to show you Salah Reis's paths down the west coast of Turkey from his birthplace at Troy, able to show you his routes through nearby Sporades Islands of Greece where he met and was befriended by the Barbarossa brothers of Lesbos, and able to show you where these paths and routes crossed Agamemnon's wake while en route to Troy and Odysseus's wake en route from Troy 2800 years earlier. Elifsu II, a superb charter sailing ketch vacation cruising Greece and Turkey. Contact Blue Cruise Yacht Charters today at blcryacht@aol.com |
