Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hello! I'm an engineering graduate who decided to carve out my own path in life, transitioning from technical jobs to a more adventurous lifestyle.

After co-founding one of Turkey's first rope access and stage rigging companies, I pursued my passion for sailing full-time. Sustainability is a key focus for me, as I've outfitted my boat with solar panels and watermaker, enabling me to live off-grid for extended periods.

My goal is to create a fulfilling and eco-conscious life at sea while sharing my wealth of experience with others.

About the boat, the plans, and current crew

usually cleancomfortablevery safeusually single handedhave a holidayshare experienceshare charter costsvisit remote placesseek adventurefulfill a dreamlearn a languageface challengeslive off the gridmulticultural

My sailboat is not just a boat but my home, meticulously equipped for sustainable living. With solar panels, a watermaker, and a drinking water filter system, I've minimized my reliance on land resources.

Currently, I'm cruising around southwest coast of Turkiye and some Greek Islands, with plans to adapt and enrich our journey based on the team's preferences and conditions. Onboard, we have paddleboards, snorkeling gear, and relaxation equipment like hammocks to enhance the experience.

Respect for personal space is paramount aboard my sailboat, which serves as both my home and sanctuary. I welcome team members who understand and uphold this boundary with care and consideration.

While I enjoy occasional adventures, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including nutritious meals sourced from local markets, is a priority. Although I may not boast culinary expertise, I can whip up delicious meals efficiently, thanks to my well-equipped kitchen.

Additionally, I embrace eco-friendly practices, such as using an e-powered outboard on my dinghy, and value teamwork in navigating our seafaring adventures.
