Local brokerage support connects viewings and negotiations with head office, while our qualified lawyer, marketing department and multilingual sales team handle the work needed to progress the transaction.
HEAD OFFICE
LEGAL
MARKETING
SALES
Owners in Aegean Coast can use EYB’s coordinated sale process: central management, local knowledge, professionally prepared documents, broad promotion and buyer follow-up in relevant languages.
EYB asks owners to begin with head office, providing the boat’s key details and its current port in Aegean Coast. This allows the team to discuss the boat and give an initial valuation before the owner decides whether to appoint EYB.
If both sides wish to proceed, they agree the mandate and sale conditions. EYB’s commission is a flat 5%, and the mandate sets out this fee with the other terms of the sale appointment.
With those terms established, head office coordinates the campaign and keeps the owner informed about buyer interest, viewings and offers. An initial valuation is an assessment based on available information, not a guaranteed selling price.

The boat stays rooted in its own harbour, but its potential buyers may live elsewhere. EYB coordinates the sale from head office and uses local brokerage support in Aegean Coast when a buyer needs location-specific information or wants to inspect the vessel.
The central team connects marketing, legal administration, the seller and interested clients. Local support can help make a visit practical and answer questions about the boat’s immediate setting without taking decisions away from the owner.
This arrangement combines access to buyers across EYB’s Mediterranean network with someone familiar with the relevant area. Enquiries, negotiation and next steps are followed up centrally.
The legal department has a qualified lawyer who prepares the mandate and the contract used for the boat sale. The lawyer also handles registration and other administrative steps relevant to the transaction.
The owner first reviews the mandate, which captures the sale terms agreed with EYB. If an offer is accepted, the sale contract reflects the conditions agreed between the buyer and seller. The paperwork follows the facts of that boat and transaction.
In Aegean Coast, the same legal support applies to the boat’s sale, with administration handled for the specific vessel. The lawyer coordinates the required documents with the parties as the transaction progresses.
To reach buyers beyond the home marina, EYB’s marketing department uses SEO, social channels and relevant boat-sale platforms in national and international markets.
The material is built around the boat rather than generic promotional claims. Specifications, equipment, condition and owner-supplied history are combined with photographs and a precise location in Aegean Coast. That gives prospective buyers a useful first view before they contact the sales team.
The campaign can be adjusted as the sale develops. Marketing staff coordinate with sales colleagues to update confirmed information, respond to interest and keep the listing aligned with the owner’s agreed instructions.
Multilingual communication is part of the sales process. EYB’s team handles enquiries from prospective buyers, organises viewings and supports negotiation through to the agreed next steps.
The team works with the owner to answer questions about a boat in Aegean Coast and coordinate a visit. Where local help is useful, it can support arrangements at the boat’s port. The buyer receives follow-up from the sales team after making an enquiry or attending a viewing.
Price, timing and conditions are discussed with the seller. EYB facilitates those discussions, but the owner decides whether to proceed with an offer.
The Turkish rules for registered boat transfers do not state a separate yacht-sales broker licence for Aegean Coast. Ship-agent rules are separate. Where a boat is to enter the Turkish Ship Registry, separate nationality rules apply: the registry requires the right to fly the Turkish flag and that the vessel is not already registered abroad. Turkish Ministry of Transport, Bağlama Kütüğü sales procedure
The sale file needs the original Bağlama Kütüğü licence, both parties’ identity papers and formal proof of transfer, such as a notarised contract. The Turkish registry procedure also requires a vessel not to remain registered in a foreign state when entered on the national register. The sale request is made through the maritime citizen portal and supporting papers are submitted to the port authority. Keep the authority’s receipt for the completed ownership change. Turkish tax guidance excludes qualifying private pleasure craft from a specific VAT exemption for port services, so registration alone does not establish a resale VAT result.

EYB arranges local brokerage support in line with these requirements, and its qualified lawyer prepares the sale contract and handles registration. Check the seller’s title, boat identity and register before completion. Turkish Ministry of Transport, Bağlama Kütüğü sales procedure
If you are looking for a boat in Aegean Coast, tell EYB the type of boat, your budget and the stretch of coast you prefer. The sales team replies in the relevant languages and puts you in touch with the right local support.
The sales team coordinates enquiries and viewing requests with the owner and local support near the boat’s port in Aegean Coast. The parties can arrange an independent survey and, if agreed, a sea trial. Timing depends on access, availability and the seller’s approval; the surveyor is independent and the parties agree the scope and practical arrangements in advance.
When you make an offer, EYB passes it to the owner and helps both sides agree the price and conditions. The lawyer then prepares the sale contract, and the purchase moves to deposit and completion, set out below.
Once the buyer and seller accept the terms, a 10% deposit is placed in escrow under the transaction arrangements. The written contract sets out who holds it and which agreed conditions must be fulfilled before release.
The rest of the price is paid straight to the seller after all conditions have been met. EYB helps coordinate the process, but the signed sale documents define the parties’ obligations and payment steps.
Seller's checklist
The Aegean Coast includes eight marinas listed by European Yacht Brokers. Setur Kuşadası Marina has 557 berths and accommodates vessels up to 90 metres. Teos Marina in Sığacık offers 480 berths. Port Alaçatı Marina has 260 berths and takes boats up to 35 metres, while Setur Ayvalık Marina provides 200 berths for boats up to 40 metres. Setur Çeşme Marina has 186 berths and accommodates boats up to 45 metres, IC Çeşme Marina takes boats up to 60 metres, and D-Marin Didim accepts boats up to 70 metres.
At Setur Kuşadası Marina, the prevailing wind is from the northwest. Port Alaçatı Marina experiences summer windsurfing in the approach, requiring buoyed navigation due to the concentration of surfers. Meanwhile, Setur Ayvalık Marina has prevailing winds from the southeast. These varying wind directions influence local sailing conditions along the Aegean Coast. The presence of windsurfing activity near Port Alaçatı necessitates caution in navigation within the marina approach.
İzmir Adnan Menderes Airport (ADB) is the nearest airport to Setur Kuşadası Marina, Teos Marina, Port Alaçatı Marina, and Setur Çeşme Marina. Balıkesir Koca Seyit Airport (EDO) is the nearest airport to Setur Ayvalık Marina. These airports serve as the primary access points for the marinas along the Aegean Coast.

Using a yacht broker for a boat in Aegean Coast is possible. Head office manages sale terms and marketing, while local brokers arrange viewings. Legal matters and contracts are handled by a lawyer to ensure the transaction matches all Turkey regulations, providing guidance from start to finish.
The mandate and sale contract are prepared by EYB’s qualified lawyer, who also manages registration and other relevant administrative steps for the transaction.
The agreed seller commission is 5% flat. EYB records it in the written mandate for the owner to review before the sale campaign starts.
Viewing arrangements depend on the owner, port access and timing. EYB coordinates the request and confirms the visit with the seller and local contact in Aegean Coast.
The parties may agree an independent survey and, where appropriate, a sea trial. They decide the scope, schedule and access conditions in advance, and the buyer appoints the surveyor independently.
