Million-dollar boats will be on display

Türkiye's only marine fair, the 4th Bosphorus Boat Show, will open its doors to sea enthusiasts tomorrow at Ataköy Marina. The Bosphorus Boat Show hosts not only boats but also yachts and mega yachts. The fair caters to sea enthusiasts with a wide range of options, from sailboats and motor yachts to speedboats and catamarans. More than 250 boats, ranging in length from 3 meters to 35 meters, await visitors at the sea. The most expensive boat at the fair, the Sandenanzo, is reportedly valued at 13.5 million euros.

"There are boats ranging from 100 thousand TL to 100 million TL"

ED Fair Co-Founder Dilek Soydan stated that the fair was met with great interest from sea enthusiasts, saying, "The Bosphorus Boat Show features boats catering to different budgets, from 100,000 TL to 100 million TL. More than 500 brands are present at the fair. These brands include boats, equipment, and accessory companies. We aim to host more than 35,000 visitors in 9 days. This year, we aim to host more than 5,000 foreign visitors. The aim here is to both exhibit the boats and receive orders for future periods. Companies with boat and equipment stocks are striving to sell them. Our domestic manufacturers will hold promotions to receive orders. The arrival of international customers contributes greatly to exports. Approximately 500 to 800 people work in the construction of a 35-meter boat. This contributes greatly to the economy. The biggest advantage of the fair held at sea is that you can take the boat you like for a test drive and test its performance. You can decide on the boat you want to buy just by seeing it." "You not only have the opportunity to buy but also to experience it," he said.

Trio Deniz Sales and Marketing Director Anıl Aycan stated that the most expensive boat at the fair was the Sandenanzo, saying, "A boat being introduced in Türkiye for the first time awaits visitors at this show. It's 30.5 meters long and 7.6 meters wide. Equipped with four main engines and priced at approximately €13.5 million, we're introducing this boat to sea enthusiasts here for the first time. It's a unique boat with five cabins, two separate dining rooms, and a professional kitchen."
