Gulets are a type of boats that has been built in Turkey for several hundred years. They vary in length between 14 and 35 meters, (52-110 feet). A Gulet is like a full service hotel, where every room has a sea view with a scenery that changes constantly. A Gulet is a wooden motor sailing vessel, the modern version of the ancient cargo bearing craft, which used to trade along the coast of Turkey. The original design has evolved into a comfortable cruising vessel and some have air conditioned accommodation for up to eighteen guests.
	In Içmeler, which is just outside of Bodrum, you can find Europe's largest shipyard for wooden yachts. An eighteen meters long Gulet can be built from scratch in eight to twelve months. Since the time of King Mausolos Bodrum has been an important centre for boat building. Emperors of Egypt used to have warships built here in the IVth century BC.
	The cabins are usually for two persons, (double beds not twin beds). All cabins have storage room for your belongings. Each cabin has also a separate toilet with wash basin and shower providing modern facilities and privacy.
