Bodrum Gulets are gulets that have become synonymous with Bodrum and have achieved international fame. When it comes to gulet construction, the first places that come to mind are Bodrum (Icmeler), Marmaris, and Bozburun.
Every year, gulets constructed in these regions are launched to sail around the world to meet their new owners.
If the stern of a boat built in the shape of a gulet is "mirror stern," that is, flat, it is known as a ketch. Today's boats are more in the Ketch style.
Because it is easier to build a large master cabin on the stern of a ketch.
Tirhandil is typically made in sizes ranging from 7 to 12 meters, though larger sizes are available.
Tirhandil boats aided the Aegean people in fishing and sponge diving due to their superior maneuverability and suitability for sailing.
The bow and stern of Tirhandil are pointed, which distinguishes it from other traditional Aegean-Mediterranean boats. The tirhandil's back is neither round like a gulet nor flat like a ketch.
On request, tirhandils can now be built up to 16-18 meters in length. Large tirhandils are typically designed for use on blue voyages.
The construction of Tirhandil has almost come to a halt, as the need for more aft deck space and cabins has emerged in Blue Voyage boats.
While strolling around Bodrum's harbor, you can now look at the sterns of the boats to determine what type they are.
In addition, the Bodrum Maritime Museum displays a large collection of Bodrum boat models.
