34m Luxury Gulet Charter Bodrum | 2009 | ME3405

ME3405 is a 34-metre luxury gulet based at Bodrum, built in 2009 and rebuilt twice since — a full refit in 2017 and a second pass in 2020. She takes 10 guests in 5 cabins with a crew of 7, which is an unusually high crew count for the length and shows in how the week runs. For a gulet charter Bodrum booking where the service matters as much as the boat, that ratio is the number to look at.

She is rigged as a two-masted schooner and sails properly when the wind allows. Under power, twin John Deere 450 hp engines give a 10-knot cruise and a 14-knot maximum.

34 metres, built 2009 and rebuilt in 2017 and 2020

The hull is wood, built to the Bodrum tradition, with a long counter stern and a bowsprit carrying the headsails well forward. Two rebuilds have left her with a modern interior and modern systems inside a traditional shape. Air conditioning runs throughout; power comes from a pair of 50 kW Onan generators. Very few gulet charter Bodrum listings of this age have been through two refits that deep.

What a buyer of a gulet charter Bodrum week gets at this size is deck space measured in zones rather than square metres: a foredeck of sunpads, a shaded central dining area, and an aft deck with the jacuzzi and the swivel chairs.

Where a gulet charter Bodrum week goes

Bodrum sits at the hinge of two cruising grounds. West and south is the Gulf of Gokova — Cleopatra Island, Sedir, English Harbour, Akbuk — sheltered, pine-backed, and shallow enough that a gulet anchors stern-to the rock almost anywhere. North is the Gulf of Gulluk and the ruins at Iasos. A gulet charter Bodrum itinerary rarely needs more than four hours under way on any one day.

The Greek islands are a short hop: Kos is under two hours, with Kalymnos, Leros and Patmos beyond it. Crossing needs the right paperwork, which we arrange ahead of the week rather than on the day.

Saloon, galley and living space

The saloon is split across two spaces. Forward is a lounge with a corner sofa, glass coffee table and a backlit coral panel on the bulkhead; aft is a dining table for 10 with a second seating group behind it. Joinery is high-gloss cherry against pale leather and cream carpet.

The galley is crew-only and set up for a chef working a full week of covers, which is where a gulet charter Bodrum week earns its reputation. Most lunches and dinners are served on deck; the interior dining table is for weather, or for a long dinner at anchor.

5 cabins for 10 guests

One master, three VIP doubles and one twin, all ensuite, all with air conditioning. The master is full-beam, with a king berth, a lit headboard and a dresser to one side. The three VIP cabins carry doubles. The twin takes singles and converts where a group needs it to.

Bathrooms are finished in stone and gloss timber, with vessel basins and separate showers. On a gulet charter Bodrum week, 10 guests across 5 ensuite cabins is the configuration that works for two or three families travelling together.

On deck and in the water

The aft deck carries the jacuzzi, flanked by sunpads and low swivel armchairs. Amidships, under the boom, is the main dining table — the place the week actually happens. Forward of the mainmast the deck opens into a bank of sunpads with its own seating.

Water toys are included: paddle boards, wakeboard, water skis, snorkelling gear and a zodiac tender. Wi-Fi covers the yacht. A gulet charter Bodrum week aboard her does not come with a toy hire sheet attached.
