1999 Sailboat Aycaa, EUR 45,000

Custom 12.45m Performance-Cruiser "Ayçaa" (1999) – Multi-Trophy Regatta Winner. "Ayçaa" is a high-performance, custom-built sailing yacht with an illustrious racing pedigree, having actively competed and won multiple trophies and cups in both Turkish and international regattas. If you are looking for a fast, structurally superior, and seaworthy vessel that knows how to find the podium, this is your opportunity. Built using the premium Strong Plank GRP Sandwich system, her hull is exceptionally rigid, naturally insulated against moisture, and built to withstand high-load racing conditions. Currently located at Viaport Marina in Tuzla, Istanbul, she is in sailable condition. Due to the owner’s advanced age, she has been resting for the past 2–3 years and is priced attractively to allow a new owner to bring this decorated champion back to peak racing form.

Trophy History: Active participant in major domestic and international races, boasting a collection of multiple championship cups.
