Yachts for Sale in Turkey

Tell us what you are looking for and we will find it.

One accountable broker, from first inquiry to handover.

What we source

How buying works

  1. 1

    Define your brief

    We agree budget, type, size, intended use, cruising area and timeline so the search is focused on the right yachts.

  2. 2

    Sourcing & shortlist

    We search Turkish and international listings, shipyards and private sellers, verify availability, history and paperwork, and present a shortlist.

  3. 3

    Viewings & sea trial

    We arrange viewings, engine checks and a sea trial on shortlisted yachts - in person or with remote updates if you are abroad.

  4. 4

    Independent survey

    We coordinate an independent surveyor and review the report with you so condition and value are fully verified before you commit.

  5. 5

    Offer & negotiation

    We negotiate price and terms on your behalf, protecting your position as the buyer throughout.

  6. 6

    Contracts, registration & delivery

    We manage the purchase contract, transfer, flagging and registration, then hand over the yacht - with berthing, management and maintenance available after the sale.

Contracts, flagging and registration are handled properly so ownership transfers cleanly and legally.

We only use your details to help with your enquiry, and never sell or share them with third parties.

Frequently asked questions

Can foreigners buy a yacht in Turkey?

Yes. Foreign buyers can purchase new or pre-owned yachts in Turkey. We handle inspections, contracts, flagging and registration end to end so the process is straightforward and compliant.

Do you have a fixed list of yachts for sale?

We work to your brief rather than a fixed stock list. Once we know your budget, type and timeline, we source matching yachts from Turkish and international markets and present a shortlist.

Can I buy a yacht in Turkey remotely from abroad?

Yes. Most of our buyers are international. We arrange remote viewings and updates, coordinate an independent survey and sea trial, and manage contracts and a compliant transfer of ownership.

What taxes apply when buying or importing a yacht?

It depends on the yacht's status and where it is registered. VAT, duties and import treatment vary, and we guide you through the options - see our guide on the total cost of importing a yacht to Turkey.

Do you help with survey, registration and berthing?

Yes. We coordinate an independent survey, manage flagging and registration, and can arrange marina berthing, management and maintenance after the sale.

How long does it take to buy a yacht in Turkey?

It depends on your brief and the market, but a focused search, survey and closing can move quickly. Message us and we will give you a realistic timeline for what you want.
