Halas’ colourful history begins in 1914 when she was purchased by the British Government.  However due to the outbreak of World War I, the British Government refused to allow her delivery.  She arrived in Turkish waters in 1918.  In 1923 her name was officially changed to Halas (meaning deliverance), and she was used as a passenger ferry on the Bosphorus for 65 years.  1984 saw her sold into the private sector and converted into a luxury cruiser.  From 2008 to 2010 she was entirely and extensively renovated, and since this time she has been serving as a fully–licensed luxury coastal cruiser available in Istanbul and along the south-western coastline of Turkey.
With her idyllic setting and impeccable services, Halas offers the perfect atmosphere for exclusive weddings or corporate events for up to 120 people.
12 luxuriously appointed cabins accommodate up to 24 guests, while the principal indoor dining room can seat up to 60 people, with additional outdoor space for another 42 people.
