What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
33 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.
A genuine classic The Grandi is a traditionally-built wooden gulet that appeals to guests seeking authentic Mediterranean sailing rather than modern luxury. At 26 metres with six cabins sleeping up to 12, she's well-sized for groups or families wanting an immersive gulet experience without the premium price tag.
Standout practical features Solar panels, generator, air conditioning, and decent connectivity mean you won't sacrifice comfort despite the traditional build. Snorkeling gear included is a genuine bonus for blue-water exploration along Turkey's coast, which is where you'll almost certainly be based.
Strong value proposition A zero deposit is refreshingly guest-friendly, and older wooden gulets like this one typically offer excellent rates compared to modern motor sailers or catamarans. You're paying for an honest, well-equipped vessel rather than glossy finishes, which most guests find represents genuine value.
One candid note At 31 years old, the Grandi is well-maintained but you should expect the character and quirks that come with vintage wooden construction, creaks, variable cabin sizes, and occasional temperamental plumbing are par for the course. If flawless modernity matters more than charm and history, look elsewhere; if you're seeking soul and value, she delivers.
