MERAKI Catamaran Charter

MERAKI catamaran charter offers a comfortable and memorable sailing experience aboard a modern Lagoon 42, combining spacious living areas, excellent stability, and contemporary onboard comfort. Built in 2022 and based in Fethiye, this impressive 12.80-metre catamaran is an excellent choice for families and groups wishing to discover the spectacular southwestern coastline of Turkey in privacy and freedom.

Accommodating up to eight guests, MERAKI features four comfortable double cabins together with an additional single cabin, providing a practical and flexible layout for longer sailing holidays. Five bathrooms offer added convenience and privacy, making the catamaran particularly suitable for groups travelling together while still wishing to enjoy their own personal space.

Designed for relaxed Mediterranean living, MERAKI provides generous outdoor areas where guests can sunbathe, enjoy alfresco dining, or simply admire the panoramic views of the surrounding bays and islands. The spacious aft cockpit creates a welcoming setting for shared meals and evening gatherings, while the forward sunbathing area offers a peaceful place to relax beside the crystal-clear waters.

The catamaran’s elevated helm station provides excellent visibility while cruising and allows guests to remain connected with the sailing experience. Comfortable deck areas and wide walkways make it easy to move around the yacht, whether underway or anchored in one of the region’s secluded bays.

Inside, MERAKI presents a bright and welcoming atmosphere with panoramic windows, comfortable furnishings, and a spacious saloon that connects naturally with the outdoor cockpit. Large windows allow natural light to fill the interior while offering uninterrupted views of the sea throughout the journey.

The fully equipped kitchen includes an oven, grill, cooker, refrigerator, freezer, sink, and everything required for convenient onboard dining. Air conditioning, Wi-Fi, hot water, USB connections, towels, bed linen, and 220V and 24V electricity provide the everyday comforts needed for both short escapes and extended sailing holidays.

With an impressive beam of 7.62 metres, MERAKI delivers generous interior volume and excellent stability while sailing or resting at anchor. Her shallow 1.21-metre draft makes her well suited to exploring sheltered bays, peaceful anchorages, and beautiful coastal destinations throughout the Fethiye and Göcek region.

Powered by twin 57 HP engines, MERAKI provides dependable manoeuvring and comfortable cruising between the Turkish coast’s most beautiful destinations. Fuel and freshwater tanks of 600 litres each support extended time aboard and allow guests to enjoy a more independent sailing experience.

MERAKI is equipped with a comprehensive selection of navigation and safety systems, including GPS, autopilot, VHF radio, nautical charts, wind and speed instruments, an electric windlass, bow thruster, compass, generator, inverter, solar panels, and full safety equipment. Cockpit speakers and an intercom system provide additional comfort and convenience throughout the journey.

The catamaran may be chartered as a bareboat by suitably licensed and experienced guests. A professional captain, cook, hostess, or deckhand can also be arranged upon request, allowing each charter to be tailored according to the guests’ sailing experience and preferred level of onboard service.

Additional services such as airport transfers, catering, drinks, onboard provisions, and selected water sports equipment may be organised before departure. These flexible options allow guests to create a personalised sailing holiday, whether they prefer an independent adventure or a fully supported charter experience.

Based in Fethiye and available from other ports upon request, MERAKI is perfectly positioned for exploring Göcek, Ölüdeniz, Gemiler Island, the Twelve Islands, Marmaris, and the countless peaceful bays of Turkey’s southwestern coastline. Turquoise waters, sheltered anchorages, charming coastal villages, and spectacular sunsets provide the perfect setting for an unforgettable Mediterranean journey.
