Sailing – Elan Impression 50 – Epoch

Sail the Aegean in Style: Sailing Charter with Elan Fethiye

Fethiye is a place where the majestic Taurus Mountains embrace the crystalline turquoise waters of the Mediterranean. It is, without a doubt, the heart of the Turkish sailing world. For sailors who seek a perfect balance between performance, immense volume, and safety, the Elan Impression 50, named “Epoch,” stands as a true queen of the seas. Whether you are looking for a high-performance Sailing Charter with Elan Impression or a relaxing family holiday on a premium Monohull Elan Impression, Epoch is designed to offer an unmatched maritime experience. Available for Bareboat or skippered charter, this yacht is your gateway to the hidden paradises of the Lycian coast.

The Philosophy of the Monohull Elan Impression

In a market increasingly saturated with multi-hulls, the Monohull Elan Impression 50 “Epoch” reminds us why the classic sailing silhouette remains the gold standard for true enthusiasts. Designed by the renowned Humphreys Yacht Design, the Impression 50 is celebrated for its modern lines, excellent stability, and a hull that slices through the Aegean waves with grace.

Unlike standard yachts, the Elan Impression 50 features a unique “deck saloon” concept, which provides an elevated interior and panoramic views even when you are sitting in the cabin. For those pursuing a Sailing Charter with Elan Fethiye, this means more natural light, more headroom, and a feeling of spaciousness that is typically only found on much larger vessels.

Technical Excellence and Onboard Comfort

Epoch is a masterclass in modern boat building. With a length of 15.20 meters and a substantial beam of 4.68 meters, this yacht offers one of the largest living volumes in its class. Its performance rig and deep keel provide the stability needed for long-range cruising, while the twin steering wheels in the cockpit offer the helmsman perfect control and visibility.

The interior layout is expertly configured to host up to 10 guests in absolute comfort. Featuring 5 spacious cabins and modern bathrooms/WC, Epoch provides ample privacy for large families or groups of friends. The main salon is a social hub, equipped with a fully functional galley, high-quality kitchen utensils, a TV for evening entertainment, and a high-end music system. Every detail, from the ambient lighting to the ergonomic seating, is curated to ensure that your Sailing Charter with Elan Impression feels like a stay in a floating boutique hotel.

Bareboat Independence and Skippered Luxury

The flexibility of the Elan Impression 50 is one of its greatest assets. For experienced sailors who hold a valid license, Epoch is available as a Bareboat charter. The yacht is equipped with top-tier navigation aids, including an Autopilot, Bow Thruster for effortless maneuvering in tight marinas, a GPS Chart Plotter, and high-precision wind instruments. Taking command of a 50-foot Elan Impression as a Bareboat in the sheltered waters of Fethiye and Göcek is the ultimate dream for many sailors.

For those who prefer to leave the technicalities to the experts, Alfa Yachting offers professional skipper services (€180/day). Having a local captain on board allows you to relax entirely while they navigate you to the most secluded coves and secret bays known only to the locals. You can even hire a private cook (€150/day) to prepare gourmet Mediterranean meals on deck as the sun sets over the horizon.

Exploring the Jewels of Fethiye and Göcek

Starting your voyage from Ece Saray Marina in Fethiye puts you in the perfect position to explore the most iconic routes in Turkey. From the deck of Epoch, you can sail to the legendary Gemiler Island to explore Byzantine ruins, anchor in the still waters of Sarsala Bay in Göcek, or witness the breathtaking cliffs of the Butterfly Valley.

The yacht’s design facilitates a seamless connection with nature. The wide swimming platform and sea staircase make dipping into the turquoise sea effortless. With a large water tank and substantial fuel capacity, Epoch is built for autonomy, allowing you to stay longer in those quiet, starlit bays without needing to return to civilization.
