Formerly known as Proteksan Turquoise, Turquoise Yachts is Turkey’s largest superyacht builder, building custom power and sailing yachts. Turquoise Yachts has significant recognition in the luxury yacht building industry with the company now able to show off a very impressive fleet of vessels since the construction of the first world-class superyacht from the fleet M/Y Turquoise.
Established in 1997, Turquoise has delivered a wide range of superyachts ranging from 40 to 72 m in length with several other yachts measuring up to 80 m currently under construction. Specializing in the construction of steel and aluminum vessels, the shipyard is split into two distinct areas to aid construction.
Turquoise offers bespoke and semi-custom designs of the highest quality and attention to detail. In 2009, Turquoise was announced winner of the Best Innovation Prize for yachts above 50 m, and in 2008 winner of the Yacht Construction Award. With two yards at their disposal, Turquoise aims to launch four superyachts per year. Having worked with many illustrious names in yacht design and naval architecture such as Andrew Winch, Ed Dubois, H2 Yacht Design, Donald Starkey, and many more, Turquoise is well established as a collaborator with the major players in the yachting industry. A forward-thinking and proactive yard, Turquoise has had a successful upward trajectory and is set to continue with its current momentum.
