Journey of Türkiye
Surrounded by seas, masters have been doing meticulous and skilled work for centuries. In Türkiye, rare ships and yachts are produced with remarkable craftsmanship and superior service quality. This mastery in the Turkish shipbuilding industry is the result of more than 700 years of experience.
The tradition of shipbuilding began with the establishment of the first shipyard at Gallipoli in 1390 and continued for centuries in Anatolia. When the Haliç (Golden Horn) shipyard, whose stones have survived to this day, was established in 1455, Turkish shipyards were already known as the largest in the world! The shipyards, which were concentrated in the Bosphorus and Haliç during the Ottoman period, are now spread throughout the country, mainly in the Tuzla and Yalova region.
