What follows is intended for search engine robots and spiders and not necessarily for human beings. Further information concerning gulet charters in Turkey and Greece may be obtained by clicking on the maroon links immediately above. Thank You. You must be searching for a gulet charter in Turkey. Or for a gulet charter in Greece. You are perhaps searching for a gulet charter cruising the Turquoise Coast of Turkey. The Blue Cruise. Or for the Curtogoli brothers who frequently did the Blue Cruise during the forepart of the sixteenth century. Or you are perhaps searching for a gulet charter among Aegean islands of Greece. Sailing that country's azure sea. Or for Curtogoli tracks between Latin-occupied islands in the Aegean. Or you may be thinking of bouncing back and forth between Turkey and Greece. Again, as did the Curtogoli brothers. That is, you may wish to charter a yacht cruising Turkey's Aegean coast and among Dodecanese Islands of Greece. Or you may wish to charter a crewed sailing gulet to cruise the Mediterranean coast of Turkey. Do you already plan to holiday in Greece or Turkey? With extended family? Or with a group of friends or business associates? Would you like to holiday aboard an elegant teak and pine schooner chartered in Turkey or Greece? One frequently cruising the Aegean from Bodrum. Or cruising the eastern Mediterranean from Gocek. Are you searching for Gocek in Turkey? For Bodrum in Turkey? For Rhodes or Kos in Greece? Well, come aboard Buyuk Adali, a schooner-rigged charter sailing yacht affording unforgettable holidays. Come aboard a crewed charter gulet with an experienced crew of four able to show you the Dodecanese islands of Greece or the tracks of the Curtogoli brothers along the Turkish coast from Antalya to Constantinople. And their tracks among Greek islands. A proper charter sailing yacht able to charter in Greece as well as Turkey. The Curtogoli brothers, it is worth noting, were peers of the Barbarossa brothers, and at least three of them, Aruj and Khizr Barbarossa along with Curtogoli the elder were proteges of Sultan Beyazit II's son Korkut who from 1502 until 1509 and again from 1510 to 1511 was Governor of Antalya. It was in Korkut's employ that all three polished war-at-sea skills, practicing against Venetian vessels as well as vessels belonging to the Knights of Rhodes. While the Barbarossas and the Curtogolis are known to history primarily as corsairs, their employer Korkut, paradoxically, is known to history as a poet and composer. An anomaly from Ottoman history? Come aboard Buyuk Adali and find out. Come aboard Buyuk Adali for a trip through more of ancient, medieval, and Ottoman history, not to mention through unrecorded dark ages of pirates without titles. Curtogoli the elder, by the way, commanded Sultan Suleiman's 1522 flotilla invading and taking Rhodes from the Knights. Thirteen years later he died there in disgrace, having continued to devastate Venetian shipping and islands right through the sultan's peace with Venice.
