The charter company's client booked this catamaran to sail in Göcek Bay, one of the places well suited to sailing thanks to its steady winds. Our job was to get the boat there on time.

We collected it from the company's office at Netsel Marina, Marmaris, and headed east along the coast past Ekincik and Dalyan. It was a windy day, so we sailed most of the way and beat upwind in long tacks. Only 5 hours on the starboard engine and 1.5 on the port engine.

We rounded Kurdoğlu Point into the Gulf of Fethiye, threaded through the islands of Göcek Bay and handed the boat over to the local office at D-Marin Göcek the same evening. The next morning the yacht was ready for the client.
