Yacht Services and Consultancy
For twenty five years, and for the past eight years in Turkey, we have been working in the marine industry, in both the commercial and leisure sectors, afloat and ashore. We believe that this experience offers a truly unique service to our clients.
Yacht Construction & Yacht Management

Turkey builds internationally recognised designer yachts, built to classification of various institutes. Construction methods are modern and of excellent quality steel, wood and GRP. Along with modern yacht construction traditional wooden Gulets are still built to higher standards but still retaining the classical Gulet look.
Liaising with naval architects, design engineers, shipwrights and technical staff, we are at your service. We advise, oversee, survey, manage, register new builds, refit, repair and refurbish.
Due to the expansion of the yacht construction and the repair industry in Turkey, Bodrum Marine Services has increased its involvement in this field. Over the past couple of years the BMS team has undertaken the project management and supervision of several large vessels and is currently negotiating the construction of a 50 meter tri-decked motor yacht. Additionally Bodrum Marine Services is contracted to manage the refit of two 42 meter charter vessels.
The increase in size and quality of the charter vessels operating in the Mediterranean has created the need for the professional management of these vessels. In addition to refitting and carrying out general repairs on these vessels we have undertaken the roll of general charter managers which includes all aspects of charter, crew and safety requirements.
Vessel owners prefer to communicate with one professional team which will undertake repairs as well as charter operations rather than work with several different organizations. Due to demand BMS’s involvement in this type of management will increase. Yacht general and charter management consists of various different areas including the booking of the charter groups, contracts and licenses, crew selection and training, general upkeep of the vessel, charter party requirements, weekly turn around operations, fuel and provisions, harbour master formalities and financial organization.
Yacht Registration
In association with Jersey Yacht Management we can arrange yacht registration in the Channel Islands, Malta, Bermuda, I.o.M., Caymans and British Virgin Islands. We use Lloyds Register, Bureau Veritas, American Bureau of Shipping, Germanischer Lloyd or Det Norkse Veritas.
We can conduct tonnage surveys and issue carving and marking certificates. Bodrum marine services will personally oversee every stage of the procedure and can advise on how to best protect your assets and reduce your tax liabilities.

Bodrum marine services offer consultancy on new construction and refits, acting as project managers including technical, legal and registration advice.
