SERENİSSİMA 26

A wooden, two-masted gulet built for slow coastal work along the Aegean. The layout puts most of the living space outdoors: teak side decks, canvas awnings stretched between the masts, and shaded seating at both ends of the boat.

Aft, a long dining table runs beneath a fixed awning, wicker chairs along one side and a continuous cushioned bench wrapping the other. The deckhouse roof carries a run of sun mattresses laid end to end. Forward, a round upholstered seating island sits under a bimini with two varnished side tables, and a separate sunbathing pad covers the bow. Below deck, cabins are finished in pine with darker trim, each with a split air-conditioning unit, opening portholes and a private head with a glass shower enclosure. Solar panels are fitted on the aft canopy; a tender is carried astern and a kayak on deck.

The boat suits families and groups of friends who spend the day swimming and the evening at the table. On week-long cruises between coves, the deck does most of the work and the cabins serve mainly for sleeping.
