Custom Superyacht & Sailing Yacht Construction in Bodrum, Turkey
Hand-crafted sailing and motor yachts
About the Shipyard
Puravida Yachts operates from a premier 1,100 m² facility in İçmeler, Bodrum—the epicenter of Türkiye's yacht building and refit industry. While our state-of-the-art shipyard was established in 2021, our foundation is built on a legacy of craftsmanship and client trust dating back to 2004. In our first few years at this new facility, we have already proudly delivered five exceptional vessels — including a groundbreaking 46-metre (151 ft) hybrid sailing yacht and four serial-production motor yachts — proving that our philosophy of "Pure Life" translates into tangible, seaworthy excellence.
We are a full-service shipyard with a singular vision: to merge timeless, hands-on craftsmanship with the technologies of tomorrow. By housing every discipline under one roof—from engineering and carpentry to electrical and finishing—our team of master craftsmen ensures absolute precision and quality control. This integrated approach allows us to realise our clients' visions without compromise, drawing on decades of collective experience to navigate the most complex builds.
Guided by a deep commitment to sustainability, we are at the forefront of green marine innovation. In December 2021, the yard commenced construction of Seven — at her launch in 2025, the world's largest electric-powered luxury sailing yacht. Simultaneously, we have completed a serial production run of four Puravida motor yachts, demonstrating that Puravida craftsmanship scales from bespoke one-off builds to repeatable precision manufacture.
With two additional projects currently in development, Puravida Yachts is building vessels not just for today's seas, but for a cleaner, quieter future.
Our Flagship
Seven — 46m (151 ft) Hybrid Sailing Yacht
Seven is a steel-hulled ketch built at our Bodrum shipyard and classed to RINA — at her launch in 2025, the world's largest electric-powered luxury sailing yacht. Her hybrid diesel-electric propulsion allows 10–12 hours of silent operation, and her interiors are by K Interiors, Geneva.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of yachts does Puravida Yachts build?
We design and build custom superyachts, sailing yachts, motor yachts, and traditional Turkish gulets. Hulls are built in steel, aluminum, and composite, and our Bodrum yard handles both one-off bespoke projects and serial production — from an 18.5m (61 ft) sports cruiser to a 46m (151 ft) hybrid sailing superyacht.
Where is the Puravida Yachts shipyard located?
Our 1,100 m² full-service shipyard sits in İçmeler, Bodrum, on Türkiye's Aegean coast — the historic center of Turkish yacht building. Every discipline, from engineering and carpentry to paint and electrical, is housed under one roof.
Should I choose a steel or aluminum hull?
Both have their place, and we build in each. Steel suits larger, long-range displacement yachts where strength and comfort underway matter most, while aluminum is lighter and favors higher speeds and shallower drafts. We recommend the material once we have reviewed your size, range, and cruising plans.
Which classification societies does Puravida Yachts build to?
We build to the classification your project requires, including CE, Lloyd's Register, RINA, ABS, MCA, and Bureau Veritas — our 46m (151 ft) sailing yacht Seven, for example, is RINA classified. Our management systems are certified to ISO 9001 (quality), ISO 14001 (environmental), and OHSAS 18001 (occupational health & safety).
Do you offer yacht refit and maintenance?
Yes — refit and maintenance are core parts of the yard's work alongside new construction. Recent projects include the full 2023 refit of the 30m (98 ft) gulet Torini at our Bodrum facility.
Do you build traditional gulets?
Yes — we build and refit traditional Turkish gulets, combining Bodrum's gulet-building heritage with modern engineering, systems, and interior finish. Gulets remain one of the most distinctive ways to cruise the Turkish Riviera and the Greek islands.
Do you work with international clients?
Yes — owners commission and purchase yachts from us across Europe, the Mediterranean, the Middle East, and the USA. Three of the four Puravida hulls from our serial production run were delivered to private clients across Europe, and we manage build communication and progress reporting for owners based abroad.
How long does a custom yacht build take?
It depends on size, material, and complexity — a serial-production 18.5m (61 ft) motor yacht is a very different programme from a one-off 40m-plus superyacht. Once we have your brief, we prepare a detailed build schedule with milestones from keel laying to delivery and report progress throughout.
