What is the Bodrum-Cup? The Bodrum Cup for wooden boats is the only yacht regatta in Europe (maybe even in the world) run with passengers on board, who, if-they wish, can double as crew. Thus chartering is combined with racing and anyone in the world, even a total landlubber, can take part in the regatta. So, the Bodrum Cup is a regatta for beginners as well as old salts. In the sense stated above the Bodrum Cup regatta is not merely a race, but an international yacht festival. It is run along the favorite routes of the ''Blue Voyage'', the name given to cruises in the turquoise seas of the southern coasts of Turkey, studded with hundreds of beautiful coves, rich in natural beauty and traces of more than 3,000 years of history. The racers, crews and passengers alike visit major stops along this route during the Bodrum Cup regatta. The objective of the Bodrum Cup is to encourage and expand the use of sails among Turkey's majestic fleet of traditional wooden charter yachts known as "gulets". The forebears of gulets have cruised these waters for centuries under canvas. This also encourages the construction of better boats benefiting from modern technology and better suited for sailing. The Bodrum Cup is reserved exclusively for wooden yachts. Modern wood,-epoxy-laminated boats are welcome. GRP or steel hulled vessels can also join, but only as non-competing participants. We want the tradition of yesterday's yachts to survive while adapting the advancements of contemporary technology.
