Lavezzi 40 Bareboat Charter Catamarans Sailing Turkey And Greece
The new four cabin, two bath, Lavezzi 40 emphasizes yet again
the technological and architectural lead of Fountaine Pajot, the world's leading builder of charter
catamarans. The cockpit features a lounging area close to the helm as well as an outdoor dining area
with seating for eight. Salon woodwork in chart table, galley, furnishings, and flooring combine
to make this central space luminous and warm. Cabin beds are extra-wide compared to other cats of the
same size, and each cabin is ventilated with forward-facing overhead hatch and side-scuttle. Twin
engines have been installed in aft holds independent of the cabins. Sail area is generous at 968
square feet, while genoa winches are laid out to keep the cockpit clear. The Lavezzi 40 can be
sailed by one person with ease.

Further information concerning bareboat charter catamarans sailing Turkey and Greece may be obtained
by clicking on the maroon links immediately above. Thank You. You must be searching for
catamarans sailing Turkey or Greece. Even should you be searching for Levezzi, well, that's the same
thing. The Levezzi 40 is a catamaran, a catamaran from the French yards of Fountaine Pajot, in this
case a bareboat charter catamaran sailing the crossroads of history. That's right, Turkey and Greece
are situated at the crossroads of history. You might be dreaming of a family sailing holiday with
school-age children. What better than a holiday on azure sea at the crossroads of history! What better
than an opportunity to fill in local school system gaps! Not merely history gaps but geography gaps,
as well. A multi-hull charter sailing the southwest coast of Turkey. A charter ghosting along from one
pine-enshrouded cove to another pine-enshrouded cove. Or a bareboat cat charter in Greece. A stable
cat on which to ride the Meltemi from remote island to remote island. A stable cat on which to
poke into coves surrounded by
blue-shuttered bleached-white dwellings. Or surrounded by nothing at all. Or a bareboat
charter catamaran sailing both Turkey and Greece. Perhaps sailing in the wake of Maturin d'Aux
Lescout de Romegas, a French Knight of Malta who during the 16th century criss-crossed the crossroads
of history commanding one or more of the order's red-hulled, black-prowed, galleys. He did so, of
course, in search of Ottoman prey. Are your children aware of Ottomans? Of the Ottoman Empire? They
should be. During the Ottoman Empire's glory years, including the 40-odd years Romegas prowled these
sea lanes, its was the most enlightened society in the world. Your children should know why. Your
children might sail one or both Greece and Turkey aboard a catamaran with accommodations for eight.
Perhaps chartering such a catamaran to cruise Turkey's ancient Lycia. Or to sail Cleopatra's route
along the coast of neighboring Caria and among Greek Dodecanese islands. As did Romegas. While you
holiday. While you holiday with history and geography texts. Romegas first came to the notice of
history in 1555 following a storm at Malta during which his galley overturned. When the storm had
passed rescuers heard a knocking inside the overturned hull. A hole was punched in the hull and
through it emerged Romegas carrying his pet monkey. They had survived in an air pocket. But it was
Romegas' 1564 capture of an Ottoman merchantman in what are now Greek waters that precipitated the
epic three-month siege of Malta in the following year. This merchantman was owned by the Ottoman
sultan's chief white eunuch and was transporting cargo belonging in part to the sultan's daughter
Mihrimah valued at 80,000 ducats. The sultan was Suleiman The Magnificent who had forty-two years
earlier expelled the same knights from Rhodes, and in consequence of this incident he was determined
to expunge them once and for all time. Did he succeed? Do your children know? Can they locate Malta
on a map? Children aside, you may wish to holiday with a group of friends, not with children,
holidaying aboard a chartered catamaran proceeding leisurely from enchanting locale to intriguing
locale. Perhaps cruising further along the Mediterranean coast of Turkey. Beyond Lycia and Caria.
Starting in Gocek. Are you searching for Gocek in Turkey? For Fethiye in Turkey? Well, there or
elsewhere we can put you aboard bareboat charter catamarans for the holiday of a lifetime. We can
put you aboard bareboat charter catamarans and point you toward flat sailing waters of the Gulfs of
Gocek and Fethiye, show you Alexander's path down the coast of Lycia, show you Cleopatra's route up
the coast of Turkey and between Greek islands, and show you where Romegas overlapped them both.
