The 4 cabin’s bareboat gulet Akin A was built in 1989 and it is docked in Bodrum, Turkey. The Akin A (1989) can accommodate up to 12 people in 4 cabins and it has 5 toilets. The overall length of the boat is 69 ft / 21,0 m. The main equipment (find the complete list on the ’Equipments’ tab): air condition, stand up paddle (sup) and it’s obligatory extras: handling fees, crew, transit log. The main sail is full batten. You can check-in from 17:00 h and check-out until 09:00 h.
Why charter this Akin A
4 cabins for 12 berths means about 3 guests per cabin, so bag storage and sleeping turns are clear before departure. 2.4 guests per head matters on early marina mornings, when showers, breakfast and casting off compete for time. At 21 m, this gulet needs earlier berth planning and more turning room in busy marinas.
Best charter fit
Akin A suits crews comparing cabin separation, luggage storage and bathroom timing across 4 cabins and 5 heads. Sailing crews should keep one fallback leg for wind shifts, late sea state and the final marina return.
The Bodrum peninsula and the Gulf of Gökova
Bodrum’s cruising splits between its own peninsula and the Gulf of Gökova just to the south, and it is the gulf that gives the week its shape: a long, deep, sheltered reach you can spend days inside without a rough passage. The base is the lively town under its crusader castle, with Milas-Bodrum Airport (BJV) a 35–50-minute road transfer and İzmir (ADB) the longer drive. After handover a peninsula cove such as Gümüşlük makes the first night, chosen for the wind. From there the days run between the peninsula bays and the head of Gökova, the meltemi felt on the open northern shore but shut out deep in the gulf; with the wind up the northern coast in the afternoon, turn back west in good time rather than beat home late.
