What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
37 years old. Yachts of this age statistically need more in-charter maintenance attention, ask the operator for the recent service log when you enquire, and budget a small contingency for niggles (a stuck winch, a tired bilge pump). On a well-cared-for boat this is usually just part of the rhythm of charter, on a neglected one, it can spoil a week.
Classic gulet charm The Sila is a beautifully traditional 23-metre gulet that suits couples or small groups wanting an authentic wooden-boat experience with modern comforts. Built in 1989, she carries genuine character while offering essentials like air conditioning, heating, and navigation kit for year-round cruising.
Well-equipped for basics You get solid cruising gear here, chart plotter, radar, dinghy, and snorkeling equipment, plus onboard conveniences like a coffee maker and ice maker that make life comfortable. The outboard engine keeps maintenance straightforward, and a zero deposit is genuinely refreshing.
Value consideration At single-cabin capacity, pricing will depend heavily on daily rate, which isn't shown here. For a classic gulet of this vintage, you're typically paying for character and hands-on sailing atmosphere rather than modern luxury, worth it if that appeals to you, but confirm the actual cost against newer rivals.
One practical note A 35-year-old wooden vessel needs diligent maintenance, so ask Xenos Yachting directly about recent refits and survey history before committing. Knowing the base location would also help assess your airport transfer time from major European or UK hubs.
