New EXTRA Yachts Dealership in Turkey
by Extra Yachts 4 May 22:17 PDT
EXTRA Yachts announces the beginning of a new chapter in Turkey, appointing Selen and Selim Özgörkey of EXTRA Marine Yatçilik ve Turizm Anonim Sirketi as its official representatives.
Defined by contemporary Italian design, layouts that create a closer connection to the sea, and a strong focus on habitability, EXTRA Yachts reinterprets superyacht comfort as a more modern, flexible, and truly liveable onboard experience.
EXTRA Yachts supports its "close contact with the sea" and "maximum habitability" approach through generous indoor/outdoor volume, sea-level social areas, flexible layouts, and efficiency-led thinking. Technology is positioned not as an end in itself, but as an enabler of life on board. In yachting terms, this translates into solid seaworthiness, acoustic optimisation for quieter cruising comfort, low fuel consumption, and long-range cruising capability—bringing both cruising performance and onboard living comfort under the same philosophy.
Selim and Selen Özgörkey, who represent EXTRA Yachts in Turkey, share their motivation:
Selim Özgörkey:
"For more than 35 years, I have been an active yacht owner and seafarer, completing long-distance voyages both in Turkey and internationally across different classes of motor yachts. Over time, I have experienced—first-hand—key criteria such as performance, seakeeping, efficiency, spatial planning, and long-stay comfort. What impressed me most about EXTRA is how decades of engineering expertise and refined craftsmanship are felt even in the smallest details. From a technical standpoint, Palumbo's engineering heritage and technical expertise translate into tangible confidence—across efficiency, seakeeping capability, and overall build quality. When I first encountered EXTRA Yachts, I saw the balance of the qualities I had been looking for, brought together under a contemporary design language—so I made the purchase decision quickly. Following my satisfaction, we decided to take on the Turkey representation, because we want to introduce this brand to boat lovers who share a seafarer's mindset and an explorer spirit."
Selen Özgörkey:
"We have been living the boating life for many years; hosting family and friends has always been a natural part of our time at sea. That's why, when evaluating a yacht, we look beyond design or performance alone—focusing on openness, seamless indoor-outdoor flow, long-stay comfort, and day-to-day usability. With EXTRA, we experienced a truly 'at-home' level of comfort on board. The thoughtful planning of living spaces, their width and airiness, and the refined craftsmanship behind even the smallest areas make a meaningful difference—and naturally extend the time spent on board. We believe this approach will resonate strongly in Turkey with families and owners who value hosting and liveability."
