Shipbuilders · Bodrum · Est. 1978

Crafted forthe endless blue.

Motor yachts, gulets and sailing yachts — conceived, engineered and built by hand in our own shipyard on the Aegean.

The house

For almost half a century we have taken the boat-building tradition of Bodrum and held it to the world’s most exacting standards.

Steel, aluminium, wood and composite. Displacement and semi-displacement. Gulets, motor yachts and sailing yachts from 24 to 55 metres — every one built to order, to Lloyd’s, RINA, MCA and CE rules. And every owner, without exception, becomes part of the family.

We don’t build boats. We build the days you will remember for the rest of your life — and the vessel that carries them.

The fleet

Built here. Remembered everywhere.

Every yacht in the Cobra fleet was built — or born again — in the Cobra Shipyard. Four of them, in their own words.

Private charter

It was never about the destination.

To hear the sea properly, you have to leave the shore behind. Pine-fringed coves, water so clear the anchor is visible at ten metres, and no one aboard but the people you chose.

No two blue cruises are the same, so we never sell one off the shelf. Choose a gulet, a sailing yacht or a motor yacht; we shape the route, the pace and the table around you, with a crew that has known these waters all their lives.

New build

Yours, down to the last screw.

A Cobra yacht begins with a conversation: how you’ll use her, where you’ll sail, who will be aboard. From that brief, our naval architects and craftsmen build to Lloyd’s, RINA and MCA rules — whatever the material, without a single compromise on quality.

Our shipyard, opened in 2003, spans 4,000 m² with two covered halls of 2,000 and 1,500 m². Two yachts of different sizes, up to sixty metres, can take shape side by side — typically in ten to twenty-two months.

Refit & care

We look after a yacht the way we build one.

Safety and pleasure at sea depend on what happens in the yard. Our own team handles everything from a complete refit to a winter lay-up — and every job comes with its own written delivery date.

Our open yard berths up to eight large yachts through the winter season.
