Turkey – Annual Bodrum Cup, Turkish gulets racing

sasha — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 12:13:13 +0000

The 21st International Wooden Yacht (Gulet) Regatta started on Wednesday, 28th October, but the second day into the race has been interrupted by strong winds. The set route was 25 nautical miles from Gündoğan to Didim. Gulet ‘Dreamland’ was a referee yacht during the Regatta.
After the start at 10 a.m. from Apostol Island, the speed of the winds reached about 40 kilometers per hour. The waves were around four meters high which considerably slowed down the gulets.
After six nautical miles of sailing, 14 gulets had to withdraw. Some gulets returned to Gündoğan Bay, while the other gulets were given a permission to put the sails down and advance to the finishing line in Didim by engines.
Despite the weather conditions, this stage had a great audience from the shores.
The Bodrum Cup promotes the world-famous Bodrum gulets. The gulets traditionally date back three thousand years ago.
The Bodrum Cup was first organized in 1989. This gulet sailing event was launched with the aim of encouraging sailing activity during yacht charters and helping charter crews develop their sailing skills and interests. The cup race has been held on the beautiful “blue voyage” courses which the charters use during summers to impress their clients, such as Datça, Ekincik, Gökova Bay, Güllük and Mandalya Bay.

Gulet ‘Andjeo’ (recommended)

sasha — Tue, 10 Feb 2009 13:18:33 +0000

Adriatic Holidays is pleased to announce an award of outstanding service to the gulet ‘Andjeo’.

Katey travelled on the gulet Andjeo in August 2011 from Dubrovnik to Split.

Dear Sasha,

We had a fabulous trip, thank you. Captain Niksa and his crew went out of their way to ensure that our holiday was as good as it could be. They were especially helpful and relaxed with the 6 children that we had on board and were always willing to accommodate any requests. The food on board was outstanding and our delicious lunches were a particular highlight.
The boat was beautiful and has been maintained in perfect condition. We loved all the places that we visited and are so happy that we got to experience the beauty of Croatia for ourselves.
Thank you for helping us organize this trip. It definitely exceeded our expectations.

Best wishes,
Katey

Mr Wilkinson travelled on the gulet Andjeo in July 2010.

‘Dear Sasha,

We spent last week onboard the Andjeo. It was excellent in every way: probably the most beautiful yacht in the Adriatic, certainly the most immaculate, and very well-appointed and comfortable; Niksa Gluncic is, to my experienced Naval eye, an outstanding and notably resourceful and energetic seaman and a respected Captain and leader; he and his smart and hardworking crew of Tony and Peter were invariably courteous, obliging, charming and cheerful; the food was delicious and our various foibles all catered for; we were very lucky with the weather, but even so our programme was arranged to perfection; it was an especially relaxing and interesting cruise down the lovely islands from Split to Dubrovnik. Our congratulations and thanks to all concerned.

Nick Wilkinson’
