Sailing holidays in Turkey and the Greek Islands aboard S/Y Slypuss
Rod, your RYA (Royal Yachting Association) qualified captain and his hostess wife Margaret have considerable sailing experience and have covered several thousand sea miles. They chartered their previous yacht, Nuku II, very successfully for 8 years in Turkey until 1997 when they returned to the UK and ran a Welsh country house hotel for 2 years. Turkey beckoned them back and aboard Slypuss they can now share the wonderful coastline with their guests... Secluded anchorages, pretty harbours, turquoise blue waters, antiquities galore and not forgetting the wonderful Turkish people.
Slypuss is a powerful 46ft Pilot house sailing ketch.
