News from Gocek Turkey

nilo · 06-02-2008, 06:37 AM

While enjoying the nice sunshine at the start of the season, I want to share some of the visiting boats at Gocek in the forum.

The first picture is Anebella of Jongert; one of the latest Jongert. She was visiting Gocek and already on her way westbound.

The second picture are local boats; Darnice and Cigdem.

Third picture is Golden Horn by Dereli. I think she is still for sale, presently used by the owner of the yard.

Fourth picture is Blue Fascination by Jongert, which is also a local boat.

The next one Turkish Gulet sailings on the south side among the hills.

G-Force was in the area.
Her sister, local resident Let It Be stays in Port Gocek Marina.
The other boat is not a local one I presume she is also and older Heesen.
I think the boat next to Let It Be is an old Piccotti.

Samax Russian owners were enjoying the Gocek bays as well.
This little boat was a good proof that taste and enjoying the water is not in the hands of priviliged few. In fact, the boat had a family with 3 young kids and they were really having a high time.
The last 2 pictures are not there to promote the Ferretti 830, but rather to record a nice sun set at Gocek. Enjoy it.

Thanks for the photos Nilo. It nice to see what is going on, on that side of the world.
That sunset looks great on the last photo. It seems that Greece, Turkey and Croatia are the big spots for this year as heard that quite a few boats are heading that way. Enjoy your summer.

I see a lot of big boat activity on the Turkish coast this summer. I will try to share the ones I've recently captured during my recent cruise

1st boat in Gocek was "Blue Scorpion" of Baglietto.
4th and 5th pictures are from Scopia Marina jetty at Gocek and there is a Bennetti Tradition, sailboat "SYL" and "Blue Scorpion".

1st picture is an old classic boat, I was not able to record the name and I have not seen her in the area before. Any contribution for her identity is most welcome. 2nd and 3rd pictures are a local boat "Tesu", built by Tecnomar and refitted last year at RMK; 4th is another local, "White King" of Moonen; 5th is the rear view of boats at Scorpia Marina.

In these pictures, I have recorded surroundings and anchorage for one of the best restaurants on the Turkish coast. It is named My Marina. They have recently upgraded the berthing facility and and have added some houses on the waterside. The facility is up on the hill, with a very nice view of the bay. There was also Numarine's 102 and sailboats along the jetty.

nilo · 07-09-2008, 08:36 AM

In this set I have more pictures of the facility and 2 pictures of "Monte Carlo".

When I moved outside the bay, I've come accross 3 big ones anchored next to Dalyan beach at Koycegiz. Most probably the guest have come to visit old city of Kaunos and the tombs carved in the rock. For those who are interested further for the location, they can visit following sites:

The big ones in the order of appreance were;
- Boadicea of Amels;
- Saint Nicolas of Luerssen;
- Moneikos of Codecasa.
