She is the only crewed boat in this group, and the skipper is already in the price. A Saba 50 catamaran charter Fethiye therefore reads differently from a bareboat week: you arrive, you say where you would like to wake up, and somebody who knows every bay between Göcek and Kekova takes it from there. Fifteen metres, four double cabins, eight guests, based at Lykia Yacht Club.
Built in 2015 by Fountaine Pajot at La Rochelle to a Berret-Racoupeau hull, with an interior by Isabelle Racoupeau. Length overall 14.98 metres on a 7.99 metre beam, draught 1.25 metres, light displacement 15.7 tonnes. Four double cabins, each with an en-suite head and separate shower, plus a forepeak skipper cabin. GRP with a vacuum-infused balsa and foam sandwich, CE Category A for fourteen persons, Turkish flag, guest rating 4.88 out of 5. She is the largest catamaran in this group and the only Saba 50 catamaran charter Fethiye offered with crew.

The Saba 50 was the boat that made the forward lounge deck standard equipment on a fifty-foot catamaran. Cushions run across the coachroof ahead of the mast, seating eight for sundowners with the whole gulf in front of you, and the trampolines carry on forward of that.

The flybridge carries a helm pod with a double seat, three sun loungers and a settee — a second saloon in good weather. Below, the aft cockpit sits under a moulded hardtop with transom seating for eight and a table that extends to ten. On a crewed Saba 50 catamaran charter Fethiye the hardtop matters: it is the difference between eating outside every night and eating outside most nights.


Headroom in the saloon is a shade over two and a quarter metres, which is unusual at this length and is the first thing tall guests notice. Glazing runs the full width forward, a full-height sliding door opens to the cockpit, and the galley is built around an island with twin worktops, oven, hob and a chart table beside it. Interior joinery on a Saba 50 catamaran charter Fethiye of this vintage is light oak with matt surfaces rather than gloss.


Four double cabins are arranged two per hull, each with its own head and a separate shower stall, and each with a long panoramic hull window at pillow height rather than a portlight. The skipper lives forward in the forepeak with his own access, so a crewed Saba 50 catamaran charter Fethiye costs you nothing in guest space.


She carries a square-top full-batten mainsail of 83.5 square metres against a furling genoa of 57.5, for 141 square metres upwind — a genuinely powerful rig for a cruising catamaran. Twin Volvo Penta saildrives, 940 litres of fuel, 700 litres of water, and a bowsprit for a gennaker.

SAIL Magazine measured 9.2 knots upwind in a 17-knot breeze, 10.3 on a beam reach and 14.6 knots at 120 degrees apparent. Those are test figures on a light boat, but they explain why a Saba 50 catamaran charter Fethiye can leave after breakfast and still be swimming somewhere new by lunch.
The published base rate is €11,000 per week. An early booking discount of 15 per cent brings the yacht to €9,350, or roughly €1,336 a day. Three items are then added: the skipper at €1,540 plus food, final cleaning at €300 and the Turkish transit log at €200. Booking Manager totals the week at €11,390 with the skipper aboard.
Charters run Saturday to Saturday, boarding from 17:00 and disembarking by 08:00. Fuel, provisioning, harbour dues and the skipper’s food are separate. A security deposit is taken at boarding and refunded on return, and every optional extra is settled at the base rather than in advance.
The skipper is included. A cook is €1,400 per booking plus food and a hostess €1,190 on the same terms, and both are worth considering on a boat this size: eight guests generate a lot of washing up. Water toys are priced per week — Seabob F9 €1,900, Nautica Marine 500 sea scooter €200, stand-up paddleboard €110, kayak €60.

Comforts run the same way: unlimited WLAN €100, electric grill €100, Nespresso machine €70, igloo freezer €15, hammock €30. Per booking: safety net for a 50 to 54 foot hull €120, extra bed linen €20, extra towels €15, extra transit log €100, early check-in from 13:00 €200, and a one-way finish in Marmaris €600. Every extra on a Saba 50 catamaran charter Fethiye is settled at the base. Dalaman transfers are €95 for up to six guests or €130 for up to fourteen.
Lykia Yacht Club sits inside Fethiye harbour, which puts the Twelve Islands within the first afternoon. Tersane, Yassıca and Domuz each hold their own anchorage, and Göcek closes the head of the gulf with six marinas and a walkable town. A crewed Saba 50 catamaran charter Fethiye usually starts here because the skipper can read the afternoon breeze better than any forecast.

South of the entrance lie Ölüdeniz and the Butterfly Valley, both best taken early. East along the coast, Kalkan, Kaş and the sunken city at Kekova make a comfortable week; with 1.25 metres of draught a Saba 50 catamaran charter Fethiye lies further into the creeks than a monohull of the same length, and the skipper knows which ones take a fifty-footer.
Some of the best tables on this coast have no road to them. Bedri Rahmi Bay on Tersane, the fish restaurants at Sarsala and Boynuzbükü, the family kitchens tucked into Kapı Creek and Wall Bay — all reached by tender, and most will lend you a mooring for the night if you eat ashore.

Late summer brings sea bass and gilthead bream from the local pens, figs and the first pomegranates from the villages behind Göcek. Book ahead in July and August; the good ones fill by mid-afternoon, and a skipper on a Saba 50 catamaran charter Fethiye will usually have called ahead before you have finished swimming.
The 15 per cent early booking discount applies to the base rate only while it lasts. Aquinox handles the paperwork, the transit log, provisioning lists and airport transfers from Dalaman, and can add a cook or a hostess at short notice. For the same coast bareboat, see our Bali 4.6 or the Leopard 52; under power, the Leopard 46 Powercat. Full model specification is published by Fountaine Pajot.

The base rate is €11,000 per week, reduced to €9,350 with the 15 per cent early booking discount. The skipper at €1,540 plus food, final cleaning at €300 and the Turkish transit log at €200 are then added, for a confirmed weekly total of €11,390 with crew aboard.
Crewed. A skipper is included in the quoted total and lives in the forepeak cabin with his own access, so all four guest cabins stay free. A cook at €1,400 per booking and a hostess at €1,190 can be added, both plus food.
Eight guests in four double cabins, two per hull, each with its own en-suite head and a separate shower stall. Charters run Saturday to Saturday, boarding from 17:00 and disembarking by 08:00.
From Lykia Yacht Club the Twelve Islands and Göcek are within the first day, Ölüdeniz and the Butterfly Valley lie just south of the gulf, and Kalkan, Kaş and Kekova fit comfortably into a seven-night itinerary.
