- @SailingKawai This week we begin our journey in Marmaris Turkey where we anchor off Marmaris town while waiting for our friends to arrive from Australia. We explore Marmaris before setting sail for the tranquil bay called Ekincik Bay. It's 20nm from Marmaris and we are fortunate to receive some great winds and sail the entire trip. To celebrate the time with friends we enjoy some Raki, swim, play some cards and then head out to a local restaurant which is a lot of fun. We are also fortunate to spot many turtles in the bay which is fantastic.
We head off early and catch some more consistent winds on route to Gocek. The sail is 40nm and we use the time listening to music and catching up. We had visited Gocek previously as this is where we purchased Kawai in 2018. We are excited to return and look forward to seeing good friends. We anchor off Gocek town in the bay between the 6 marinas. Gocek is extremely busy with hundreds of mega yachts lining the bay.
Gocek is a beautiful place with amazing restaurants lining the shore. We explore the town with our friends Damien and Nicole before exploring the hills behind Gocek. We decide to visit the famous Yuvarlakçay Defne Restaurant a 45 minute taxi ride from Gocek. We are not disappointed and love every second of our time.
About us:
Our names are Jason and Tracey and we traded our house, cars, business, job and security for freedom, adventure, travel and living simply amongst nature and the seas on our 45 foot Hanse 445 sailing boat, Kawai.
We don't know exactly where the winds will take us at this stage but over the last couple years we have sailed to Turkey, Greece, Montenegro, Croatia.
Jase loves making travel videos and we decided to upload to youtube to share our adventure. We really hope you enjoy and feel free to drop us a comment any time to chat or subscribe to follow along :)

48 seconds in Reminds me of the 80s when I lived in Sydney and the disco fairy made its usual rounds. Wishing you the very best stay safe happy and healthy which shouldn’t be hard for you to do. Amazing couple with outlook on life to match.
Thanks for the great videos! Next time, you should try Tekirdağ gold series. Raki is enjoyed with many different sorts of mezes and especially with cold melon and feta cheese as main side dishes. Rather drink it slowly over one hour or so and enjoy the conversation with friends. Also, another glass filled with cold water is a must. Enjoy the turkish coast and beware of wild fires. Greetings from a turkish sailor living in Switzerland!
What a beautiful adventure! Love watching you guys
Getting better and better.
Wot ! the bell not working! on a binge
You guys are awesome, glad you’re back sailing and making videos!
Looks like you guys enjoyed
What a legend your taxi driver was! Love those moments when travelling. Great to see you having loads of fun x
Well thanks for making serap cry. Lol...😢😢 The hospitality of the taxi driver sent her right off and his wife peeling cucumbers made her very home sick. We'll be back next year to see family so all good 😉. Anyway, I have been enjoying the vids. Must be nice to have ya mates from Australia sailing with ya. Also look forward to seeing what you get up to in our old town of Fethiye such a great town. Looked a bit blowie there, but as you know that bay has great holding. Quite a muddy base so great place to be in with weather like that. OK enough dribble from me. 😁Stay safe and see ya on the next vid.
Hi !!!
Smashing :))))
nice video try rakı with meze ( appetizers ) watermelon, melon, Ezine cheese, yogurt, ....etc.
Woah what a crazy busy place to be anchoring with all the party boats, haha! I can imagine you prefer the more calm and private anchorages to get some good night's sleep :)
Good to see you back.
Brilliant
Fab Guys!
So free ^_^
So nice you're back on water. We're coming begining of September and that's the plan, first week down to Fethiye( Hilmi restaurant quite nice in the fish market) and then Gemiler and coming up to Bozukkale and maybe Söğut. To be honest, I'll come even now :-). Enjoy good wind and nice time there!
Best taxi driver ever 👍🏻
Go to Patmos & Arkoi. Wont regret it.
