Founded in 1993 in Bodrum, ADA Yacht Works blends Turkey’s wooden boat heritage with modern superyacht practice. The shipyard operates within an enclosed area of roughly 4,000m² and focuses on fully custom builds. Production spans compact motor yachts around 15m and rises to significant sailing and motorsailer projects at 49.9m, positioning ADA in the heart of the Eastern Mediterranean build scene.

Engineering at ADA emphasizes steel and aluminum construction alongside select wood applications, with in-house craftsmen supported by contemporary systems. The builder’s recent trajectory includes a structured push into larger semi-series projects, where hull construction and technical milestones can be staged at partner facilities before outfitting and finishing in Bodrum for quality control.

Iconic deliveries include the 49.9m/163’9” all about u and the 49.99m/164’ all about u 2, both designed with Ginton Naval Architects. Current momentum centers on the 50z steel motorsailer series, which advances ADA’s reputation for big-volume sailing yachts that deliver superyacht comfort, generous deck plans, and efficient long-range cruising. For buyers who value craftsmanship and attentive project management in Turkey, ADA offers a focused pathway from concept to completion.
