Accommodation
GOLDEN STORY accommodates up to 8 guests in 4 Double cabins. Each cabin has its own private bathroom with shower and WC, providing a simple and practical arrangement for four couples, families or small private groups.

Four Double cabins provide accommodation for up to eight guests, making GOLDEN STORY particularly convenient for couples travelling together.
Private Bathrooms
Every guest cabin includes a private bathroom with shower and marine-style WC for greater privacy during longer charters.
Air-Conditioned Comfort
The yacht is equipped with air conditioning throughout the guest accommodation and main interior areas.
Living Areas & Onboard Comfort
GOLDEN STORY offers several exterior living areas despite her compact 20-metre length. The flybridge, forward seating area and aft dining space allow guests to enjoy different parts of the yacht throughout the day.
Bodrum-Based Private Trawler Charter
GOLDEN STORY is based in Bodrum, placing her close to some of the most attractive cruising areas of the Turkish Aegean. Her size and four-cabin configuration make her particularly suitable for guests who want the privacy of a fully crewed yacht without moving into the larger superyacht category.
Depending on confirmed availability, charter programmes may also begin from other Turkish ports such as Marmaris, Göcek or Fethiye.
Performance
GOLDEN STORY is powered by twin Iveco diesel engines producing approximately 450 HP each. Published specifications place her cruising speed in the region of 10–12 knots and maximum speed at approximately 15 knots.
Her performance profile is well suited to relaxed coastal cruising, where the focus is on short passages between anchorages rather than high-speed transfers.
Tender & Water Activities
GOLDEN STORY carries a straightforward selection of equipment for swimming, exploring bays and enjoying time on the water during a private charter.
Service Tender
A service tender is carried for guest transfers, shoreline access and general yacht operations.
Paddle & Canoe
Published charter inventories include stand-up paddleboard and canoe equipment for exploring calm bays.
Snorkelling
Snorkelling equipment is available for guests who want to explore the clear waters around Turkish anchorages.
Fishing Equipment
Basic recreational fishing equipment may be available onboard for use where local regulations permit.
Tender and water-toy inventories may change between seasons. Current equipment should be reconfirmed together with the charter proposal.
