M/S Amazon Solo

Amazon Solo is a 28 m gulet for 12 guests in 6 cabins, offering gulet charter from Göcek, Turkey, among the sheltered Twelve Islands, refitted in 2020.
Built by the Coban shipyard in 1998, she is a classic wooden gulet with the kind of craftsmanship that made the Turkish coast famous, updated with air conditioning, shower boxes and Wi-Fi.
Six cabins is a lot for a 28 m gulet, and that is her strength: a master cabin, a VIP cabin and four double cabins give 12 guests their own space without moving to a larger boat. A single 542 HP Caterpillar engine gives a steady cruising speed of around 10 knots, ideal for the short hops between Göcek’s anchorages, and stabilisers working at anchor and underway help keep things calm.

Göcek suits her perfectly. The Twelve Islands archipelago lies just off the marina, each island with its own sheltered bay, so days are spent swimming, paddling and snorkelling rather than covering long distances. Her water toys include a paddleboard, a canoe, water skis and a ringo, along with snorkelling and fishing gear, and a 3.8 m dinghy handles shore runs. A crew of five looks after guests throughout the week. She is a natural choice for friends travelling as couples, families and groups who want a classic blue voyage at a relaxed pace.

Life Aboard M/S Amazon Solo

Amazon Solo is a gulet in the traditional mould: wide decks, shaded meals at anchor and long afternoons in the water. Around Göcek, bays are close together, so most days include two or three anchorages, with time to swim, paddleboard or take the dinghy ashore. Evenings are usually spent at anchor in a quiet bay. The saloon has a TV, and Wi-Fi is available on board.

Yes. The Twelve Islands are among the most sheltered cruising grounds in the Mediterranean, with short distances between bays and calm water for swimming.

How are the six cabins laid out?

There is a master cabin, a VIP cabin and four double cabins, so every cabin has a double bed.

Can the route be changed?

Yes. Sample routes are only a starting point, and the plan can be adjusted with the captain during the week.
