Gulets, the iconic wooden sailing vessels of the Mediterranean, are celebrated for their timeless elegance, robust construction, and deep-rooted cultural heritage. These handcrafted yachts, traditionally built in Turkey, are renowned for their broad beams, spacious decks, and rounded sterns, offering a unique blend of comfort and classic nautical charm. Constructed primarily from high-quality woods like mahogany or teak and rarely from steel, Gulets are the result of centuries-old shipbuilding techniques, meticulously passed down through generations of skilled artisans.
The allure of Gulets lies in their ability to seamlessly combine traditional craftsmanship with modern amenities, making them ideal for leisurely cruises along the stunning coastlines of the Mediterranean. Whether designed for private charters or personal use, each Gulet is a masterpiece, reflecting the individuality of its owner and the expertise of its builders.
The choice of wood and the specific construction techniques used in building a Gulet are critical factors that influence both the vessel’s durability and the type of insurance coverage it can receive. When seeking insurance coverage for one of these exquisite vessels, we recommend and often require a thorough survey by a qualified expert at the time of insurance inception. This assessment should be conducted every five to ten years, ensuring the Gulet continues to meet the highest safety and operational standards, safeguarding its value and legacy.
