Missy Johnston of Northrop and Johnson Yacht Charters ( http://www.njcharters.com )is attending the 2010 Marmaris Yacht Charter Show in Marmaris, Turkey. “Each year the yacht charter options available in Turkey increase in quality,” says Johnston. “It is always a great pleasure to come to this show and see the work done every winter to keep and improve the quality of the yachts available for charter in this great cruising area.”
This year there are 78 crewed charter yachts registered for the show with 71 companies attending from various worldwide locations and of course from across Turkey. There are motor yachts and sailing yachts available for inspection for crewed yacht at this Marmaris show, however the majority of yachts available for inspection are the Turkish Gulets, a crewed yacht available for charter in this area built along the design lines of a traditional Turkish coastal vessel.
Turkish Gulets are unique to Turkey, built out of wood or steel and in general offer a great charter value in worldwide yacht charter. Gulets are large beamy vessels offering roomy staterooms, each with ensuite bath, and expansive decks great for relaxing and sun bathing. In recent years, the luxury Gulets being built offer a great charter experience at a great value. The luxury Gulets are finished with full mahogany interiors and modern bathrooms, many completed in marble, and luxury sheets and towels. On board dining on the luxury Gulet has reached new levels of international and gourmet Turkish fine dining with full service and a nice selection of wines.
This is the 10th year for the Marmaris Yacht Charter Show which Northrop and Johnson Yacht Charters attends regularly usually traveling in Turkey before or after the show in order to also see the various important historic sites that can be included in a yacht charter along the ancient trading route on the southern coast of Turkey. In fact, Northrop and Johnson Yacht Charters has been coming to this area for over 20 years, informally inspecting yachts offered for charter in Turkey. Now, having a professional show in Marmaris for the industry allows us to see just that many more great yachts and crews to recommend for our clients for an outstanding charter in Turkey.
