34m solar-powered sailing yacht MiTi One takes shape in Turkey

Since March 2020, the team at Bodrum Oguz Marine have been putting together the 34.06m sailing yacht MiTi One. 

Few sailing yachts can claim a heritage of an established boat building calibre as much as the recently delivered 39.90 metre sailing yacht Rox Star can. Boasting a captivating blend of traditional Turkish-built quality and contemporary superyacht styling, this gullet-inspired sail yacht is certainly not your ordinary motor-sailor, and once on board, one realises that Rox Star has been brilliantly set up with true bluewater sailing in mind.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/155591/image/large-50306c76b232959353c4395df09096bf.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/155591">Designed in-house by Bodrum-based Oguz Marin Bodrum, Rox Star is dressed in a pearlescent black hull with matching sails and classic deck house. Her vast exterior deck space has cleverly been divided into separate areas dedicated to socialising, sunbathing and partaking in the sailing action. The atmosphere on board keeps with Rox Star’s relaxed cruising design, and guests are in for a real vacation experience during their time spent on this modern-classic beauty.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/155592/image/large-5a601243bb9caf3f6b953ad43a75d089.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/155592">Separated by the helm stations and running controls, is the main cockpit and aft sun bathing area. The cockpit is covered by a large fixed bimini that can be extended to provide shade to the sun bathing area aft. A large U-shaped seating area provides the perfect setting for guests to relax while underway, and makes the most of this wind-free area that is protected by the deck house ahead. A table placed in the centre makes this area ideal for large family gatherings during meal-times and can easily seat 10 guests.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/155593/image/large-e1903b63026d75262c5aea820c0887fb.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/155593">The aft sunbathing area can be used to enjoy a relaxing morning read while at anchor.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/155594/image/large-54a3918701dc8bf01e162d1efe8238f8.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/155594">An area forward of the deck house has been exclusively dedicated to guests who wish to unwind and soak up the sun while experiencing the sensation of being completely separate to the other guest areas on board.
