NEVRA QUEEN

NEVRA QUEEN is a 40-metre (131ft) luxury gulet from Bodrum Shipyards, cruising the Turkish coast — the waters these hulls were conceived for, and where a gulet still makes more sense than anything else afloat. Forty metres is generous for the type, and the space shows most clearly below deck. Ten cabins accommodate twenty guests: two owner's cabins, six cabins with a double bed, and two cabins laid out with twin beds. It is a layout that suits the way large gulets are actually chartered — two or three families travelling together, or a group that wants everyone under the same roof without anyone drawing the short straw. Detailed bed configuration is available on request. A crew of seven runs the yacht, a ratio that keeps service attentive across a full guest list rather than stretched thin at the edges. On a gulet of this scale, that translates into the things that matter over a week aboard: meals served on time and in the right place, tenders ready when you are, and a rhythm that follows the group rather than the schedule. Charters run on a weekly rotation, with boarding at 5pm and disembarkation at 10am. There is some flexibility on those times depending on the booking calendar and the length of the charter — worth raising early when planning your itinerary along the Turkish coast.
