About this yacht
DAIMA represents an exemplary expression of classic Turkish gulet design reimagined for contemporary luxury charter. Built by the respected Arkin Pruva shipyard in 2009 and comprehensively refitted in 2023, this 42.5-metre sailing yacht combines time-honoured craftsmanship with modern comfort and performance. Her mahogany interiors blend seamlessly with contemporary fixtures, creating an ambience that honours gulet tradition whilst delivering all the amenities expected from a superyacht of her calibre.
The vessel accommodates ten guests across five cabins—one master suite, three double cabins, and two twin cabins—all designed with the refined comfort necessary for extended Mediterranean cruising. A professional crew of seven ensures attentive service throughout your charter. Her intelligent hull design and advanced rigging deliver impressive sailing performance; the 920 square metre Genaker and 730 square metre working sail area provide both power and grace under canvas, with cruising speeds of approximately ten knots powered by twin Caterpillar C12 engines.
DAIMA's design philosophy extends beyond her interior. Multiple outdoor lounging areas distributed across the deck encourage relaxation and entertainment, whilst a fold-down swim platform facilitates seamless water access. Her comprehensive tender and water sports inventory—including jet skis, paddle boards, canoes, a Seabob, and full snorkelling and fishing equipment—ensures diverse recreational opportunities across the East Mediterranean and Greek islands. The steam room provides wellness amenities rarely found on sailing yachts of this size.
Operating from Athens as her base port, DAIMA has earned recognition as one of the most sought-after gulets on the charter market, with previous accolades including the Bodrum Cup. Her cruising grounds span the Dodecanese, Cyclades, and Ionian Islands, as well as Turkey's stunning Aegean and Carian coasts. Whether exploring the crystalline waters of Skiathos and Rhodes or anchoring in the remote coves of Crete and Corfu, DAIMA delivers an authentic yet luxurious gulet experience.
Available for DAIMA charter from €78,000 to €88,000 per week, she represents the pinnacle of traditional sailing yacht hospitality for discerning clients seeking the distinctive character and intimate scale that only an Arkin Pruva yacht can provide.
