CA4007 is Aquinox Yachting’s internal reference for one of the most substantial gulets sailing from Bodrum this season: a 40-metre, twin-masted classic built in 2007 and comprehensively refitted in 2022. Six en-suite cabins accommodate up to twelve guests, supported by a crew of six drawn from captain, chef, hostess, engineer, deckhand and housekeeper. This grand gulet charter Bodrum listing — one of the largest grand gulet charter Bodrum options in the Aquinox fleet — suits parties who want genuine scale without losing the intimacy of a traditional wooden-hulled cruiser — twin masts overhead, teak underfoot, and an aft deck built for long, unhurried dinners at anchor.
Meals aboard this grand gulet charter Bodrum itinerary are prepared and served by the onboard chef, drawing on the coast’s own Mediterranean gastronomy — grilled catch, meze spreads and seasonal Aegean produce served at the aft dining table or up on the fly-bridge, weather and appetite permitting. Provisioning is arranged in advance with the crew, and evenings at a quiet anchorage lend themselves to the boat-in only dining experiences the Bodrum and Gökova coastline is known for: a table set on deck, lanterns lit, with no restaurant reachable except by tender. Dietary preferences and allergies are best confirmed with Aquinox ahead of embarkation so the galley can provision accordingly.
Custom-built in Bodrum in 2007 and taken through a full refit in 2022, this grand gulet charter Bodrum vessel carries the twin masts that define the region’s classic charter fleet, set against a full-beam profile of 9.14 metres over a 40-metre length overall. The hull is finished in white above the waterline, with a varnished timber deckhouse and wheelhouse aft, teak decking throughout, and a fendered swim platform astern. Her twin 435 hp MAN diesels give a cruising speed of 8 knots — unhurried by design, in keeping with a gulet built for the anchorage rather than the passage.
Twin masts remain functional rather than purely decorative on many gulets of this style, though her operating agencies list no mainsail or genoa currently rigged — she is best thought of as a motor-first classic, with the masts and standing rigging as much a statement of the type as a practical sail plan. The aft deckhouse steps down to the main salon, keeping sightlines open from the wheelhouse to the stern for guests moving between deck and interior.
This grand gulet charter Bodrum listing sleeps guests across six en-suite cabins, arranged as two master cabins, two double cabins and two twin/triple cabins, for up to twelve guests in total. Each cabin carries its own bathroom, air conditioning, and finish that runs from soft cream panelling to navy and rust accents through the guest rooms. The aft master occupies the full beam with panoramic windows on three sides, while the forward cabins are dressed with round porthole glazing and built-in wardrobes — practical stowage for a full week aboard.
Twin masters give couples travelling together genuine privacy rather than a shared owner’s cabin, a configuration more common on this scale of grand gulet charter Bodrum vessel than on than smaller charter yachts along this coast. The remaining double and twin/triple cabins suit families or a mixed group without anyone drawing the short straw on a lesser berth.
Interior living on this grand gulet charter Bodrum itinerary centres on a main salon finished in dark timber against pale upholstery, built around a marble-topped dining table that seats the full charter party indoors when weather calls for it. A separate lounge nook and bar area sit forward of the table, with full air conditioning, Wi-Fi and satellite entertainment carried throughout the interior — a genuine retreat from the deck on the hottest Aegean afternoons.
Deck living is where this grand gulet charter Bodrum itinerary earns its keep. The aft deck carries a full-length dining table shaded by a canvas awning, set for long lunches with the bay in view. A separate fly-bridge dining and lounge deck sits above, while the foredeck opens into a flat sunbathing platform and a shaded lounge dressed in ochre and citrus upholstery — distinct spaces for dining, lounging and sun, rather than one deck doing all three.
A crew of six is included in the charter fee for this grand gulet charter Bodrum itinerary: captain, chef, hostess, engineer, deckhand and housekeeper. Meal preparation and service, cabin housekeeping, and the day-to-day running of the yacht are all covered, leaving guests to set the pace of the week — early departures for a quiet cove, or a late start after a long dinner at anchor.
The captain and engineer handle navigation and the vessel’s systems, while the chef, hostess and housekeeper run service and cabins — a structure closer to a small hotel afloat than a bareboat charter, and typical of what this grand gulet charter Bodrum itinerary requires to run smoothly for a full week.
Onboard amenities round out this grand gulet charter Bodrum listing: a tender and outboard are carried for shore trips and swim-stop supervision, alongside a stand-up paddleboard for calm anchorages. Comfort runs to a dishwasher, espresso machine and ice maker in the galley, generator-backed air conditioning throughout, and Wi-Fi connectivity for guests who want to stay reachable between bays.
Performance on this grand gulet charter Bodrum listing is unhurried by design: twin 435 hp MAN diesel engines drive a cruising speed of 8 knots. Beam is 9.14 metres and draught 3.66 metres, figures published by the vessel’s operating agencies and used here as given. Range, fuel and fresh-water capacity, generator output and naval architect are not published by any source currently available to Aquinox and are left blank on this listing rather than estimated.
Based at Bodrum Marina, this grand gulet charter Bodrum itinerary reaches the sheltered coves of the Gulf of Gökova, the ruins at Knidos, and the wider Turkish Aegean within a comfortable week’s cruising. Guests drawn to a longer coastal run often pair this itinerary with Aquinox’s private gulet charter in Bodrum, or look further along the coast toward the gulet charter fleet based in Marmaris for a one-way itinerary between the two.
A typical week alternates a day’s cruising with two nights at anchor, giving the crew time to plan meals and excursions around calmer weather windows rather than a fixed itinerary. Early autumn and late spring charters — the low-season weeks either side of the summer crowds — tend to find the Gökova anchorages quietest, with warm water and settled winds still on offer through May and October.
This grand gulet charter Bodrum itinerary is priced from €58,800 per week. Weekly rates start from €58,800 in May and October, rising to €75,600 at the height of the July–August season. The charter fee includes the full crew of six, fuel for up to four hours’ cruising per day, bed linen and towels with their laundry, gas and fresh water, all meal preparation and service, a welcome cocktail, and Turkish transit log and harbour expenses. Food and drink supplies, water sport equipment fuel, land excursions, airport transfers, 20% VAT and customary crew gratuities are charged separately.
Rates are quoted per week and confirmed at the time of booking; Aquinox can advise on current availability across the May-to-October charter season, including the quieter shoulder weeks either side of peak summer.
Few gulets on the Bodrum coast combine forty metres of length with six genuinely private en-suite cabins and a crew large enough to run them properly. For groups who have outgrown a smaller gulet but still want the character of a traditional wooden-hulled yacht — rather than the glass-and-steel formality of a motor yacht — this grand gulet charter Bodrum listing is one of the largest, best-crewed options Aquinox currently represents out of Bodrum. Enquire with Aquinox Yachting to check live availability and confirm a week that suits your party.
A short call or message is usually enough to hold a provisional date while contracts are arranged.
Because six-cabin gulets of this size move quickly during the July and August peak, earlier enquiries — particularly for back-to-back weeks or a specific anchorage request — tend to have the widest choice of dates. Aquinox can also advise on pairing this charter with a second, smaller yacht from the fleet for larger groups who want to split across two vessels while cruising the same itinerary.
Up to twelve guests across six en-suite cabins: two master cabins, two double cabins and two twin/triple cabins, each with a private bathroom.
A full crew of six is included: captain, chef, hostess, engineer, deckhand and housekeeper, covering navigation, meal service and daily housekeeping.
Charters depart from Bodrum Marina, Turkey, cruising the Gulf of Gökova and the wider Turkish Aegean, with itineraries extendable toward Göcek and Marmaris.
This grand gulet charter Bodrum rate includes the crew, fuel for up to four hours’ cruising per day, bed linen and towels with laundry, gas, fresh water, meal preparation and service, a welcome cocktail, and Turkish transit log and harbour expenses.
