Bilgin Yachts

Steel and aluminium superyachts from 45 to 85 m.

Bilgin Yachts is a family company from Istanbul whose marine activity goes back to 1973 and yachting to the 1990s. In the 2010s the yard became the leading Turkish builder of metal superyachts, with deliveries of 70 to 80 m.

Production covers 45 to 85 m, in steel and aluminium, on semi-custom platforms such as the Bilgin 263 (80 m) and bespoke projects. Usual designers are Unique Yacht Design and H2 Yacht Design.

Strengths: the volumes of an 80 m at a noticeably lower price than northern Europe, quality now recognised, and a family at the helm.
