I am considerind a trip to Turkey this September and would like to charter a boat , with Captian and cook , to vist islands and/or costal towns. Any thoughts on where to start from ( Antalya,Marmaris, etc , ) , names of brokers , minimum stays, sail vs power and any other useful tips would be appreciated. Thanks

Tim, Check out www.gpsc.com We used them in Greece and found them to be great. Do you need an "anchor-b**ch"? That was my job on our boat. I'm quite good at it!<BR><BR>

Tim, are you looking for a bare boat ( sailing boats starting from 14 feet to 54 ) or Gulet ( turkish wooden yachts with crew ) I might give you some suggestions if you need assistance.<BR><BR>Good Luck

You could try www.seascape-sail.com<BR><BR>We have sailed with them twice (greece and turkey)on a shared boat basis but they also do charters with crew.
