WHY BUILD WITH TURQUOISE

Learn about the process and advantages of building at Turquoise, from philosophy to location and everything in between.

The power of building in-house isn’t just higher quality control from the computer to the construction shed: it means we use resources more efficiently and with more speed.

Something big, something tough, something classic, something never done before. Our creations have no limit.

5 Turkish Shipbuilders Making Waves in the Industry

The best yachts from shipbuilders in istanbul, turkey..

Istanbul, Turkey has a long history in global trade and shipbuilding as the city was once the capital of the Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman empires. Turkey is the bridge between Asia and Europe; and Istanbul lies in a strategic location on the shores of the Marmara Sea, the Golden Horn, and the Bosporus. 

Over the (many) years, Turkish shipbuilding established an international reputation for producing technologically advanced boats largely credited to an experienced workforce. Today, shipbuilders such as Turquoise Yachts and Bilgin Yachts build some of the most impressive boats in the world.

In September 2021, Denison embarked on their annual shipyard tour in Europe. Past years took a team of yacht brokers to Italy , Germany , and Holland . This year, they visited Turkey, home to some of the most prestigious shipyards in the world. The tour helped Denison yacht brokers to gain a deeper understanding and first-hand experience of new products so they can recommend certain brands or models to clients.

Here are 5 Turkish shipbuilders making waves in the industry today.

Located in Gebze, Turkey, Numarine hosts an expansive production facility with the capacity to build up to 50 motor yachts per year. The shipbuilder employs dedicated in-house departments for glass, upholstery, cabinetry, and metalwork — bringing everything in-house allows Numarine to execute the innovation and build of each yacht to the highest quality. Plus added flexibility for customization .

Denison represents Numarine’s Explorer range of luxury motor yachts, which includes the 22XP, 26XP, 32XP, 37XP, and 45XP. Each model delivers unmatched performance and comfort for entertaining friends or family while cruising the world. Just look at the Numarine 32XP — it has one of the best sundecks and best beach clubs in her size category.

The Turkish shipyard is proving to be popular in North America. In the past 12 months, Alex Clarke sold Hulls #2 , #3 , #4 , and #5 of the Numarine 37XP .

Alpha Custom Yachts

Alpha Custom Yachts is the new kid on the block of Turkish shipyards. The boutique shipbuilder was founded by Roberto and Jorge Aboumrad in 2017. As experienced yachtsmen, the Abourmrad brothers noticed that traditional yacht designs did not always reflect the way the owner used the boat. So they partnered with experienced boat builders in Turkey and established Alpha Custom Yachts.

When Denison visited this new Turkish shipyard, the team was impressed with current builds under construction. What other shipbuilders have as options are considered standard features on all of Alpha’s offerings including heavy-duty deck gear, a pair of oversized pocket anchors, substantial stainless safety rails, and top-quality teak decks. David Johnson is the point of contact for Alpha Custom Yachts in North America .

Turquoise Yachts

Turquoise Yachts was established in 1997 by Proteksan Yachts Inc. and Turquoise Yacht Construction. The shipbuilder operates out of two yards on the outskirts of Istanbul. The shipyard in Pendik is used for interior outfitting, and the shipyard in Kocaeli is dedicated to steel and aluminum work. The innovative minds at Turquoise launched a floating dock to lift and transport yachts (up to 2500 tons) between the two yards during construction and outfitting.

An extraordinary example of a Turquoise yacht is QUANTUM OF SOLACE , a 238-foot superyacht valued at $60 million. It’s one of four yachts with a double-height atrium in the main salon. Just an example of the imagination and ingenuity coming from this Turkish shipyard.

Bilgin Yachts

Bilgin Yachts operates four shipyards throughout Istanbul to design and build custom superyachts. The Turkish shipyard employs over 400 highly-skilled craftsmen operating across its facilities so that about 90% of the manufacturing is completed in-house. Bilgin Yachts also operates its own marine stainless steel workshop and furniture design center that saves time and money during new builds.

During Denison’s shipyard tour of Bilgin Yachts, the team stepped on board the 80-meter superyacht TATIANA . She’s the first release in a series of three 80-meter superyachts under construction at Bilgin Yachts. TATIANA boasts a bullet-shaped bow and sporty profile complete with a two-level beach club, two pools, several bars, and a cinema.

Dunya Yachts

Dunya Yachts began as Ursa Shipyard in 1983. In 2005, current President Sedat Ergun transformed the shipyard into a powerhouse and renamed it Dunya (the Turkish word for “world”). Today, this Turkish shipyard completes new construction custom yachts up to 100 meters in length.

In 2013, Dunya launched an impressive 236-foot custom yacht called AXIOMA . Among the yacht’s many features are a two-story salon atrium, an owner’s deck with a private terrace, an infinity swimming pool, a gym, spa/steam room, and a 3D cinema. AXIOMA was listed with Denison for $80 million.

Video Highlights | Denison Shipyard Tour 2021

Every year, Denison completes a shipyard tour to learn more about specific brands, models, and products. This year, the team flew to Istanbul to be on the ground at some of the world’s biggest shipyards. Contact a Denison yacht broker to find your next Turkish-built yacht.

Forget Hot Baths. Turkey Is Now the World’s Third-Largest Builder of Superyachts.

Turkey, known for hot baths, baklava and fine leather goods, is also a serious contender in yacht building.  But since marketing is not one of its strong suits, the country could stay the best-kept secret in the superyacht world. A rich maritime heritage, pedigree craftsmanship and low wages have created a niche that positions the country at the heart of yacht production.

The collection of brands dotted along Turkey’s Mediterranean coastline include Turquoise, Akyacht, Alia, Vicem, Sirena, Dunya and Bilgin, along with lesser-known builders. After it’s delivered later this year, Dream Symphony —a magnificent 462.7-foot schooner built by Dream Ship Victory—will become the largest private sailing yacht in the world, knocking the Dutch-built Black Pearl off the podium.

There have been some impressive names to come out of Turkey, including the sailing yacht Maltese Falcon , the 348-ft. Dream, 253-foot Go , and the 236-foot Axioma , among dozens of others.

The 279-foot Victorious was delivered earlier this summer to its new owner, and made its public debut at the Monaco Yacht Show.  Courtesy Akyachts

At the Monaco Yacht Show two weeks ago, Bilgin displayed the first of its 263 series, Tatiana . Its interior includes walls and furniture of rich Macassar ebony, eucalyptus and different marbles, and the exterior has a sleek, sexy profile. Lead designer Emrecan Ozgun of Unique Yacht Design said his firm went all out to avoid “high-dosage design clichés” throughout the boat, making it one of the most contemporary, elegant launches this year.

Another major launch at Monaco was Victorious , a 279-footer from Akyachts, a new yard that the owner established to build the sleek superyacht. London-based H2 Yachts did the contemporary interior design, putting paid to the notion that Turkey’s designs lag behind the European builders.

“It’s now accepted that Turkey ranks third in the world for yacht construction in terms of total feet, after Italy and Holland,” Alexei Mikhailov, founder and president of Bering Yachts, told Robb Report . “In my opinion, it will soon be considered second.”

Interiors, like this salon on Victorious , are often designed by leading European design firms.  Courtesy tkkkkk

In April 2021, Bering’s 78.7-foot B77 explorer Veronika was delivered to her Australian owner. It’s the first of four deliveries planned by the shipyard this year, including a Bering 70, Bering 92 and Bering 76. Mikhailov believes the fiscal benefits of Turkey’s 18 Free Zones (VAT-free, tax-free and duty-free) make yacht building more accessible.

The Antalya Free Zone is the main yacht-building hub, accounting for around 80 percent, followed by Istanbul’s Tuzla district and Bodrum in the Muğla province. In 2019, 47 superyachts with a total combined length of 2,630 feet came out of the Antalya Free Zone, generating $95 million in revenue. The cross-section of owners came from the Netherlands, the U.S., Qatar, Croatia, the Ivory Coast, Portugal, Jamaica, Russia, Oman and Djibouti.

But Turkey’s appeal cuts deeper still. It has a solid artisanal workforce, a phenomenon that has arisen from the country’s longstanding manufacturing history and bespoke furniture making. And when the risk of a shipyard going bankrupt is taken off the table, the opportunity becomes even sweeter.

Bering Yachts has made its name for its series of explorer yachts under 100 feet.  Courtesy Bering Yachts

“Purchasing a new build in Turkey is different from anywhere else in the world,” says Mikhailov. “The certificate of ownership is issued to the owner by the federal government from the very start of construction, which means Turkish shipyards effectively work for hire. So, it’s a really safe and transparent way of boat building that puts the owner in control from the beginning.”

In Bursa, at its 1.7-million-sq. foot yard, Sirena Yachts is making waves with its flagship 88, the shipyard’s largest model to date. Hulls three and four delivered in June 2021 to their Canadian and Spanish owners. The Canadian owner plans to live aboard for seven months a year, cruising the Bahamas and Caribbean. Eight hulls have sold in total to owners from Russia, North America and across Europe.

“The Sirena 88 is not a first-time user type of boat,” Ali Ongar, CCO at Sirena Yachts told Robb Report . “It’s designed for the owner who knows what they want. It’s a real hybrid, combining the American trawler-style of boat with superyacht speed and finesse and a bespoke interior, if required.”

Building speculation boats, Sirena Yachts has created a rapid lead time of just two years. But if an owner steps in up to 10 months before delivery, they still have the option to customize their yacht interior. “We never stop building our hulls,” says Ongar. “We can build a 58-foot yacht from start to finish in four months, so that means we have the capacity to deliver one boat every 35 days throughout the year. That’s the beauty of building on speculation.”

Many Turkish yards are also collaborating with established European designers to further elevate the status of the yachts. Ken Freivokh and Dykstra Naval Architects are the names behind Dream Symphony and Cor D. Rover penned Sirena 88’s interior.

Sirena 88 facing the world, bow-on.Meanwhile, Evadne Yachts in Istanbul has also collaborated with Vripack to produce an entire series of Rock models, ranging between 80 and 138 feet. “When you pair world-class design with Turkey’s competitive boatbuilding edge, you create the ultimate talent pool,” Ali Sayakci, owner of Evadne Yachts, told Robb Report .

If the growing demand for new yachts following this year’s Cannes and Monaco yacht shows is any indication, Turkey’s boatbuilding sector could be in for a strong run over the next three years. “We have the best address in the world for semi-custom yachts,” says Sayakci.

Third Largest Superyacht Builder in the World

Türkiye, being one of the top three superyacht manufacturers of the world, continue to make a mark of itself with the superyachts it launches. Innovation awarded Sirena 88 has become an example of blending a century of experience and innovation. Dream Symphony is indicated to be the world's largest sailboat with 140 meters when completed and will be Türkiye's new “Falcon”.

The Turkish Perspective MARCH 2020 ISSUE 80

Yachts Production in Türkiye Mega yacht production, one of the leading sectors in Türkiye's maritime area. Turkish mega yacht manufacturers, which rank among the top 3 in the world in the field of yacht production specially designed, have delivered many important projects so far. Although Türkiye and Italy as the quality in the production of the first unit sale terms are vying for the leadership of Germany and the Netherlands. Türkiye, which has become a global brand in the production of luxury yachts; has started to export yachts all over the world. Türkiye, or while being the world's third-largest superyacht exporting country; It was announced that the target was to be number one in the near future.

Companies operating in Antalya Free Zone, which has become a world brand in luxury yacht production, receive yacht orders from dozens of countries, Netherlands, the United States, Israel, Qatar, Croatia, Vietnam, Ivory Coast, Portuguese, Jamaica, Russia, Oman and Djibouti.  48 firms are operating in the free zone area and as of the end of 2019, the total number of the yachts produced increased up to 441 yachts with a total length of 8,240 meters and a value of 1.17 billion dollars.

Antalya Free Zone Corp. (ASBAŞ) General Manager Zeki Gürses said that Türkiye ranks third worldwide after Italy and the Netherlands in the super luxury yacht production and the Antalya Free Zone has been a top center for the construction, which was initially started in 2000. The Tuzla district of Istanbul in the northwest and the western resort town of Bodrum follows Antalya in this regard.

Saying that they aim to provide more in yacht towingunloading investments, Gürses said a new pier is on the way, the construction of which will begin in a short time. “With this new ship lift investment, the yacht capacity of 50 meters and 500 tons will increase up to 90 meters and 2,000 tons. We also plan to create a total investment budget of 20 million dollars, which is set to include a 500-ton mobile-wheeled travel lift investment along with other infrastructure investments,” he said.

Yacht and boat industry in Türkiye, especially after 2011, is growing. Especially specialized in manufacturing super yachts, labor cost and quality advantages in the manufacturing drives Türkiye forward in the European market often in yachts and boats.

When you examine the history of developed countries, you can see how much the seafaring and marine culture is valued and transformed into a state policy in most countries. Sea trade fleets owned, ports and marinas are indicators of this. The yacht and boat sector is a very large industrial area with yacht manufacturers, marine engines, equipment, boat and mooring areas, technical maintenance and refit processes, water sports and distributors.

Yacht and boat manufacturing industry is a sector with a high added value, capable of providing employment and high export rates. This industry machinery, iron-steel, wood, paint, chemistry, electrical-electronics, textile, decoration, rubber-plastic, etc. It is a branch of industry that produces as a result of combining the products of many branches of industry in shipyards and also gets service from various service sectors. The yacht and boat industry is different from the shipbuilding industry in terms of both its content and scope and the technology it applies, while large investments for the shipbuilding industry needs for a long time at the seaside, while the yacht and boatbuilding takes a shorter time and can operate in smaller places with less investment. Although it does not require large investments, the added value is much higher. Türkiye provides an important opportunity for the international market with its coasts, yacht tourism facilities, a rich culture and history, particularly to mega yachts. Istanbul being one of the most attractive tourist and historical spots in the world, will include mega yacht mooring opportunities in the future, and this will provide a boost and prestige for the country.

Türkiye's yacht and boat industry as a general rule that the owner of the title are summarize; ship and boat building industry with a long history, craftsmanship and skilled workmanship, trained workforce, flexible working hours, quality and production with international standards, affordable cost and labor costs, high quality and sufficient supply industry, suitable supply conditions, adequate technological and IT infrastructure, our country's proximity to the international market according to the Far East countries, appropriate climate and environmental conditions.

Türkiye has shown a steady rise in construction, particularly in superyachts (24 meters and above), since 2007 and has risen to the world third position in the number and length of superyachts delivered in 2010. When the 2014 global order book data is analyzed, Türkiye was ranked third in the world with 3,005 meters and 68 projects in the list of yachts ordered or in production, and in 2016, it maintained its third place in the ranking of countries according to the total length of the super yachts in order or under construction. According to the 2019 data, Türkiye ranks fourth with a total length of some 3,000 meters.

The global superyacht industry paused for breath in 2019, with the 807 projects over 24 meters ordered (with deposit taken) or under construction representing a slight dip on the 830 recorded in 2018. This brings a halt to a period of largely uninterrupted growth in the order book – from the low of 692 projects in 2013. The total length of projects this year is 32.3 kilometers, a decline of just one per cent from last year's figures. How to interpret this year's figures depends on your outlook: a welcome stabilization of a potentially overheating industry or an indication that buyers and shipyards are bracing against macroeconomic headwinds? We suspect there's truth to both positions but also note the exceptional levels of design and innovation seen in some of the projects under way - and the vision of the owners commissioning them.

Looking at all 170 active yards globally, 78 have only one project on their books and 64 are building three or more superyachts. Of these 64 yards, 33 are building five or more superyachts and just 17 have 10 or more projects under way.

Councilor of Chamber of Shipping and Chairman of Turkish Ship and Yacht Exporters Association Başaran Bayrak said that the exports cover the product groups defined under the 89.03 Customs Tariff Statistics Position worldwide. The volume of the market varies between years, but it is between 10-14 billion dollars. The amount of exports of Türkiye in yacht group vary in the range of 100-250 million dollars. The countries that import the most yachts in the world are the United States, Netherlands, the UK, Malta, the Cayman Islands and the Virgin Islands, which offer flag advantages. The top exporting countries are Italy, Netherlands, USA, Germany and France. The annual export values of these countries are between 1 billion dollars and 3 billion dollars. Türkiye is in the range of 100-250 million dollars.

Bayrak pointed out that Türkiye is one of the top five countries in the world, especially in the over 30 meters mega yacht production. Although it is in third place in terms of order book, we think it is still far from its real potential. In addition, we have shipyards that are internationally known and increasing their popularity every year. Important brands such as Turkuaz Yacht, Mengi Yay, Sirena Marine, Numarine, Bilgin Yat, Yıldız Gemi, Su Marine started to emerge. Türkiye has made significant advances in terms of quality and design in luxury products. The rise in the prestige of the country also increases the interest in the products produced in Türkiye. People preferring Türkiye to build their yachts as a luxury good is very important for country's image. Our yacht manufacturers should be promoted effectively in the world. Turkish shipyards are in a very favorable position for yacht production with their existing power and geographical advantages. In order to climb up to the top, the image of a safe country for foreign investors should be provided and the barriers faced by the producers should be developed in favor of the sector as well as support mechanisms should be in favor of the sector.

TOP BUILDER COUNTRIES

Italy remains in first place in 2020 with a slight growth of production (+3.8 percent). The Netherlands holds on to second place, albeit with a slight decrease in production (-7.1 percent).

Türkiye, placed in the fourth place in 2019, takes third place from the UK largely thanks to a slew of large orders. There were two newcomers to the builder leaderboard to 2020 Global Order Book, both Turkish: Bilgin, with five projects (four of them exceeding 80 metres), and Turquoise, which has six boats under construction.

In fifth place, Germany demonstrates higher activity (+22.8 percent), mainly thanks to Lürssen, Nobiskrug, and Abeking & Rasmussen, a yard that has dramatically increased the size of yachts it can deliver of late. All these yards have 100-meter-plus projects.

Some yards, however, seem increasingly unafraid to start very large boats without an owner. Bilgin has an 85-meter project under way that is currently for sale and Turquoise has started a 75 meter on spec.

Turgay Noyan, publisher of sailing and yachting magazine Naviga said, “When it comes to yacht production, there are two different tracks. The first is those that produce sailboats or motorboats in series, mainly in the range of 40-50 feet. We are not active in this track. The second one is the big yachts where the heights have grown gradually. It turned into mega yachts and then giga yachts. We are among the top three countries in the world in big yacht production.”

Noyan pointed out that Türkiye's production is powerful on large yachts, whether steel or composite, aluminum or mixed. As an example, Tom Perkins' famous Maltese Falcon yacht was built in Yıldız Shipyard in Istanbul. And it is the largest export item in a single product in the history of the Republic.

Türkiye also has a very, very important tradition in woodworking. Even if our number of craftsmen gradually decreases, Türkiye will not lose its superiority in this regard.

The fact that the people from different sectors as well as those who were producers, created an excellent potential in Turkish yacht manufacturing. There are excellent examples such as Rahmi Koç's RMK Shipyard, and Inan Kıraç's Sirena.

Turkish brands such as Su Marine, Bilgin Yacht, Sarp Yacht, Mengi Yay, Ege Yacht, Sirena, CMB Yachting, World Yacht, Momenta Yacht, Zero Emmision, DSV and Vicem are recognized in the world in big yachts.

Turkish companies such as Mercan, Atak, Proteksan, MAT, Salmakis, İstanbul Ege Yat and Soyarslan are known in sails and smaller boats. Türkiye also has great interior and exterior boat designers who have an impact in yacht production such as, Tanju Kalaycıoğlu, Rıza Tansu, Red Yacht Design, Haluk Suntay, Aslı Felah and Aslı Aygen.

50-METER SAILING YACHT ALL ABOUT U 2 LAUNCHED IN TÜRKİYE

The 50-meter sailing yacht sistership to All About U 2 has been launched in 2019.

Built from a steel hull and aluminum superstructure, All About U 2 was designed by Ginton Naval Architects and built by Ada Yacht Works in Türkiye.

Accommodation is for a total of 12 guests in six cabins while the staff quarters allow for a crew of four. The yacht comes packed with a number of water toys and tenders including seabobs and paddleboards.

Other features include a sundeck bar and open plan beach club, which is revealed by a folding transom.

The interior meanwhile is decorated in grey, orange and brown accents for a “contemporary” living space. Large windows flood the interior with natural light while the formal dining area is positioned forward with seats for up to 12 guests.

The yacht will have a top speed of 14.5 knots with power coming from two 800hp Caterpillar C-18 Acert diesel engines.

All About U 2 will now undergo sea trials ahead of delivery this summer. Following delivery, she will be managed for charter by Turk Yacht in the Turkish and Greek waters. All About U 2 remains listed for sale at Fraser for an asking price of 19.5 million euros.

At the outset, the hull was stripped to bare steel, the complete superstructure and surplus metal works were removed, and the interior gutted and sandblasted. The 320 tons of steel that was removed was replaced with 550 tons of new fabrications, including the new superstructure and 112 electrically operated sliding windows each weighing 500kg. New stabilizers and other heavy engine room equipment were installed before the vessel was faired, painted and relaunched. Following her launch, new pipework was installed, she was rewired, and her new interior, all floating on rubber mounts to minimize noise transmission, was inserted. All these works were compliant with SOLAS 36 Passenger requirements.

The Judges concluded that this was an extraordinary conversion that not only changed the whole exterior profile of the vessel, improving it beyond recognition, but also gave her a completely new interior, which has a refreshingly understated and modern appearance that abounds in luxury. This, they felt, was a conversion for which the owner should be justifiably proud.

NUMARINE SOLD 5 HIGHPERFORMANCE YACHTS

Selling luxury yachts in multiples isn't the easiest feat, but Numarine just made it look like a cakewalk. The Turkish shipyard has sold not one, but five compact expedition vessels from its popular XP series.

According to the builder, four 85-foot 26XP yachts and one 104-foot 32XP superyacht were snapped up, meaning a whopping 14 yachts from the XP series have now been sold.

“These achievements indicate the relevance and popularity of the series,” said founder and chairman of Numarine Omer Malaz. “We are very pleased that five more international customers will be able to experience what high quality and impeccable Numarine style are.”

To recap, both the 26XP and 32XP are billed as modern expedition yachts. They feature efficient hulls and impressive long range-up to 3,000 nautical miles for the 26XP and 4,000 nautical miles for the 32XP-as well spacious interiors which make cruising at length a cinch. The vessels were designed by Can Yalman with naval architecture by Umberto Tagliavini and exude Built from a steel hull and aluminum superstructure, All About U 2 was built by Ada Yacht Works in Türkiye.

Bilgin launches largest Turkish-built superyacht: 80m TATIANA

By Katia Damborsky   21 February 2020

The first hull in the Bilgin 263 series, the 80m/ 263ft motor yacht TATIANA has been launched at Bilgin's facilities in Turkey today.

The largest yacht ever built in Turkey hit the water today during a private launch ceremony at Bilgin's yard in West Instanbul.

TATIANA  will now undergo outfitting before her new Owner takes delivery in spring or early summer 2020.

The exterior design and naval architecture of the motor yacht come from Turkish designers Unique Yacht Design. London-based studio H2 Yacht Design has crafted her elegant interiors.

TATIANA sports sleek and streamlined exterior styling and plenty of exterior deck areas. On-board highlights include a generous spa pool on the upper deck forward and a large pool on the aft deck with glass fronting. Lounging and dining areas are evident across all the yacht's ample deck spaces.

Accommodation is offered for 16 guests in eight cabins, including a master suite, three VIPs and four double cabins. Meanwhile, the crew quarters allow for a staff of up to 24 people.

The yacht was sold to a three-time Bilgin client who purchased the yacht in October 2015. Construction began in March 2016.

Chief executive and founder of Unique Yacht Design, Emrecan Özgün, described Tatiana as a "trendsetter among steel-aluminium superyachts of today."

He continued: "With her design and comfort elements, the Bilgin 263 is truly one-of-a-kind. We created a very attractive yacht with a sleek and sexy profile while avoiding high dosage design clichés."

Concept of the Aquanaut is heavily influenced by SUV's (Sport Utility Vehicles) in terms of stability, versatility and sense of exploration or adventure besides having plenty of storage for the toys such as surfboards, Seabobs and diving gear besides the Nemo submersible. The large deck space can be further expanded at anchor with bulwarks for a larger area to host parties or to simply enjoy the life at sea to the fullest.

The large platform on the back for the submarine is equipped with hydraulics that can lower down the underwater craft when launching is required. The same space can be used as a lounging / entertaining area when the submarine is in water and it can be lowered to water level and become the beach club as well.

The foredeck features a large jacuzzi with a seamless sunbathing area and also second more intimate dining area for up to 4 guests.

Founded in 1997

Proteksan Turquoise

Turkish luxury yacht builder Proteksan Turquoise was founded in 2001 by Mehmet Karabeyoglu and his late partner Hayati Kahmi in Tuzla, outside Istanbul. The shipyard’s first yachts included  Turquoise  (now  Double Trouble ), the first superyacht built in Turkey. The shipyard completed 20 additional superyachts, ranging from 40 to 72 metres, until the time of its acquisition.

Making use of both the space and labour force that a two-yard enterprise offers, Turquoise Yachts plans to deliver superyachts each year. Superyacht builder Turquoise Yachts’ hulls and superstructures are completely customizable, including the stern design, bulwarks and other main styling features.

Turkey is Luxury Yachting’s Quiet Achiever

Superyachts, shipbuilding, a charter market, and more history than you can comprehend. Very quietly, Turkey has been climbing up the league tables in the yachting world.

Hong Kong-based sailor, writer, marine photographer and sometime yachting magazine publisher, Guy Nowell, reflects on one of the rising star nations of the yachting industry, after a recent visit to Turkey:

In 2022, Turkey ranked fourth in the superyacht build league with 102 units, adding up to an overall length of 4,167m. The 2024 order book includes 132 boats for a total of 5,838m, and the country has overtaken the Netherlands in production, now in second place only behind Italy.

Nurettin Çalışkan from the Turkish Shipbuilding Association (GISBIR) says the country is building on 600 years of history, with world-quality construction, and the capacity to grow.

Internationally famous builders have set up production yards there and domestic brands such as Numarine and Turquoise are destined to become familiar to everyone throughout the boating world. Turkish yards, Çalışkan adds, are also refitting yachts from famous names that include Benetti, Heesen and Ferretti.

The industry and the expertise have long been there, with a plethora of shipyards on the Marmara coast near Istanbul’s Sabiha Gökçen Airport. More recently the Antalya Free Trade Zone has become a major centre of boat- and shipbuilding.

Turkey has a track record, with a highly trained skilled workforce and an affordable cost structure which gives the country’s builders a competitive advantage.

In the last 20 years what was purely a commercial-vessel-making industry has turned its attention towards the ‘leisure marine’ sector of boat building, with prominent names such as Sirena Yachts, Numarine and Magnolia Yachts.

One of the most recognisable superyachts of recent times, the 88m  Maltese Falcon , was built by Perini Navi at their yard in Tuzla, Istanbul. Damen Yachts, a celebrated Netherlands superyacht builder, has a yard in Antalya. Clearly, Turkey delivers when it comes to big boats and excellence.

Of the Turkish yards already well-known, since 1997 Turquoise Yachts has delivered 20 fully-custom yachts between 40m and 77m to owners in the USA, the UK, Europe and Russia. Their boats are the epitome of style and elegance, with the construction quality and engineering to back it up. Turquoise also has extensive repair, maintenance, and refit capabilities, and can accommodate vessels up to 120m in their dock at Kocaeli.

Aegean Yachts has been in business since 1976, building fully-custom yachts at their yards in Bodrum and Antalya. Asia readers may remember the 55m three-masted sailing superyacht  Montigne , later called  Loretta  – she came from Aegean Yachts. MD, Nihan Deniz points out that the Aegean range also includes some exceptionally well-designed explorer yachts at a mere 26m but with the interior volume of a very much bigger boat.

Nearly all Turkish yards started out building gulets which owe their origins to fishing and trading along Turkey’s southwest coast, all the way back to antiquity – pre-Ottoman Empire.They have been around forever; bet your shirt that Odysseus sailed home in a gulet. In the 1970s, these traditional sailing vessels welcomed a new role, transformed into luxurious charter accommodations for visitors keen to explore the fabulous culture and coastline of Anatolia.

Gulets are a superior way to travel: originally a two-masted sailing vessel, with a hull shape that lends itself easily to conversion to cabins (or ‘staterooms’ when they are bigger), also offering ample room for dining or lounging below deck, a huge stern cockpit for dining and socialising al fresco, and yet more space for lounging, forward. Complete this picture with first-class service and meals, and an endless supply of good Turkish rosé.

Everywhere you look, there are boats in Turkey. The building business is booming. The charter business, from superyachts to gulets, is in good shape too and working hard to increase its catchment area. The small-boat business is just as healthy. Bareboat charters, crewed charters, and private boats are everywhere.

There are 16,000 registered private vessels in Turkey, and fortunately, enough miles between Antalya and Bodrum for everyone to disappear into the scenery. There are huge marinas all over Turkey, but still sufficient bays and picturesque anchorages for absolutely everyone to enjoy a blue voyage in unspoiled peace and solitude every day.

The Turkish Yacht & Brokers Association (TYBA) Charter Show 2024 displayed a splendid selection of the burgeoning charter market in Turkey, with 52 motoryachts and gulets lined up for inspection, almost all built in Turkey.

The great thing about charter shows is that all visitors to boats are greeted warmly: no appointments are required. A charter show is a great way to actually see whether the brochures are real – they are – and to experience the full range of vessels available, from the 47m three-masted motor-sailer  Admiral  with accommodation for 36 guests in 16 cabins, all the way down to the diminutive but no less luxe gulet,  Beyaz Lale , a mere 24m and six-guest affair.

Anyone who fancies a week or so in a small floating five-star hotel – you choose the size, where the view from your suite or the terrace changes every day, and which allows you to roam around a splendid coastline steeped in antiquity and redolent with history, with or without a fixed itinerary – would do well to sign on the dotted line for a Turkish charter excursion.

It’s easy to get there too: major airlines fly direct to Istanbul, and the Turquoise Coast is only a one-hour domestic flight onwards.

Today, Turkey claims a little over six per cent of the world charter market, valued at more than US$1.01 billion per year, and growing. “The charter industry in Turkey is going from strength to strength,” reports Günes Aysun, President of TYBA, who opened the fifth annual charter show in Göcek in May 2024, at the beginning of the charter season.

“Our members reported an uptick in business in 2023, and business at this show is even more positive. We have charter brokers here from all over Europe, the USA, and from the Middle East, and we have international press interest from Asia as well. Yes, we are looking forward to a robust and healthy 2024 charter season.”

To date, Turkey has been undersold for boating. Turkish yards are building some of the best boats in the world, there’s a vibrant charter market, and it’s highly accessible – after all, Turkey is the historic bridge between Europe and Asia. It’s practically on the doorstep, and there are plenty of direct flights to Istanbul.

Buy a ticket, go boating.
