THE WALL is a 40 metre custom Turkish gulet launched in 2012 and refreshed in a 2022 refit, a warm, light wood motor sailer that carries a party in comfort through the clear water of Turkey and the Aegean. She looks after twelve guests across six cabins with a crew of five, and her appeal is the generous, unhurried life a modern gulet gives: broad sun decks for long days in the open air, shaded alfresco dining for every meal and a bright, light wood interior below, all finished with the craft these Turkish yards are known for. For a family or a group of friends travelling the coast together, she is a relaxed and welcoming choice from the first morning to the last.
Her point of difference is the easy, sociable space of a well built gulet. Long decks and a generous beam open up areas to gather, to dine and to spread out in the sun, while the handwork of the yard shows in the warm timber and the careful joinery, and the 2022 refit keeps her interior bright and current. She motors and sails gently between the islands and settles into a quiet bay with real poise, and an attentive crew of five keeps every part of the day running smoothly, from the first swim off the stern to a long dinner under the stars. The result is a yacht that feels sociable and generous by day and calm and settled once the evening draws in, with the room and the service to make a full week on the water feel effortless for the whole party.
Life in the open air spreads across her broad decks. The bow sets out a generous run of sun pads open to the sky, a calm place to lie back in the sun away from the party, while the shaded aft deck gathers a long alfresco dining table and soft seating a few steps from the sea, the natural place to come together for a leisurely meal or for drinks as the light drops over the bay. A run of water toys from the swim platform turns every anchorage into a playground. In the warm months the open decks are the heart of the yacht, with clear Aegean water always within reach and the pine covered coast of Turkey slipping past as she moves between quiet coves and lively harbours.
Inside, the mood is bright, warm and welcoming, finished in light timber with soft upholstery and large windows that keep the sea in view from every seat. The main saloon is a generous, open living space with soft seating, a run of armchairs and a bar, so the whole party can gather in one bright, sociable room when the breeze turns cool or the sun climbs high. The light wood and the careful handwork give the interior a settled, hospitable feel, a composed counterpoint to the long days spent out on deck and in the water, welcoming by day and snug once the evening comes, with the warmth of the timber running through the heart of the yacht from end to end.
Accommodation is arranged over six cabins for twelve guests, set below the main deck where the motion is gentlest. The master takes a generous, private position with a wide bed, warm joinery and its own bathroom, while a run of double and further cabins, each quiet and comfortable with their own facilities, look after the rest of the party. It is a flexible plan that suits several families or a group of friends travelling together, the cabins ready for couples and for younger guests sharing, every one finished to the same warm, careful standard. Spacious, warmly built and attentively crewed, THE WALL is a relaxed and genuinely sociable way to charter Turkey and the Aegean with the whole party kept close.
