At a Glance
Kugu 1 is a 25-meter traditional gulet crafted in Bodrum, designed for intimate and genuine cruising adventures. Ideal for groups of up to 12 guests, this yacht offers a blend of warm hospitality, classic craftsmanship, and the allure of Mediterranean sailing.
First built in 2000 and extensively updated — most recently in 2023 — Kugu 1 merges timeless wooden design with contemporary comfort. All bathrooms have been newly renovated, and the interior has been refreshed to create a cozy, welcoming atmosphere.
One of the yacht's standout features is its remarkable sailing performance. Kugu 1 participates annually in the renowned Bodrum Cup regatta, and guests are invited to join the crew during sailing — a unique opportunity rarely available on gulets.
Onboard, you'll discover a generous sunbathing area, a welcoming aft dining space, and a warm, comfortable salon. Kugu 1 is renowned for its friendly atmosphere — from the moment you step aboard, it feels like home.
What truly distinguishes Kugu 1 is its dedication to authentic sailing. The crew raises the sails daily whenever conditions permit, offering guests the rare joy of gliding quietly across the water rather than motoring from bay to bay. This daily sailing tradition fosters a deeper connection with the sea and makes each voyage unforgettable.
