Fortuna is a 28-metre traditional gulet built in 1996 and refitted in 2013, chartered privately with her crew on the Turkish coast around Bodrum, Marmaris, Fethiye and Göcek, and to the nearby Greek islands. She takes up to 14 guests in 7 air-conditioned cabins (1 master cabin, 4 double cabins and 2 twin cabins), each with its own shower and WC. A crew of 4 looks after you: the captain, a cook and deckhands.
On deck you will find a cushioned aft deck with a big table for long lunches, a sun deck with mattresses under an awning and a deck shower for after a swim. For active days she carries water skis, a canoe, a paddle board, a wakeboard, a ringo, snorkelling gear and fishing gear.
In 2027 Fortuna costs €2,580 a day in May and October, €2,860 in June, €3,300 in July and August and €28,560 in September. With 14 guests that works out at about €184 to €2,040 per person per day.
Similar gulets in our fleet include Uğur (31 m, from €2,750 a day) and The Blue Sea (27 m, from €2,580 a day).
Her starting price is about 6% below the typical (median) price of the 8 7-cabin gulets in our fleet (€2,750 a day). With 7 water toys she carries more than 87% of the gulets in our fleet. Booking in May or October instead of September saves about 91% on the daily rate.

See what guests say after sailing with DE Yachting.
I had an absolutely amazing time on the boat not a single complaint. The crew was awesome and so accommodating, they really took their time to put there all into everything they did! The food was delicious and i had a marvelous time!!!
Our family just returned from the most incredible trip to Turkey, and it truly exceeded every expectation. The highlight of our vacation was our unforgettable week aboard Baba Can, which was simply perfect from beginning to end.
A huge thank you to Hülya and the entire team at DE Yachting for organizing such a seamless experience. Every detail was thoughtfully planned, communication was excellent, and we felt completely taken care of throughout the entire process.
Most importantly, our captain and crew aboard Baba Can were absolutely outstanding. They made us feel at home from the moment we stepped on board. Their kindness, professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine hospitality made the trip so special. They went above and beyond every day, whether it was finding beautiful secluded bays, preparing incredible meals, or making sure our family had everything we needed. By the end of the week, they felt like family.
Turkey itself is one of the most beautiful countries we’ve ever visited, with crystal-clear water, charming coastal towns, delicious food, and incredibly warm people. Thanks to DE Yachting and the amazing crew of Baba Can, this became one of the best vacations our family has ever taken.
We cannot recommend DE Yachting and Baba Can highly enough. Thank you, Hülya, our captain, and the entire crew for giving us memories that will last a lifetime. We will absolutely be back!
