Bilgin Yachts has announced that the second unit of the Bilgin 170 series has arrived in Antalya for outfitting. Drawing upon the successful platform of the Bilgin 163, this design has been optimised to ensure more spacious interior and exterior areas, whilst retaining a sleek appearance.

The second unit of the Bilgin 170 series builds upon the success of her predecessor, showcasing a harmonious collaboration between Unique Yacht Design and Hot Lab. The result of this partnership is a vessel that embodies the very best of luxury, functionality and sophisticated craftsmanship, with interiors that complement her striking exterior stylings.

Berkay Yılmaz, Commercial Director of Bilgin Yachts, commented: ‘The semi-custom Bilgin 52 offers a generous arrangement with accommodation for up to 12 guests and 9 crew. The owner’s suite is situated on the bridge deck. The design of the Bilgin 52 features one of the largest sundecks in this size range. This expansive area contains a jacuzzi for up to 8 guests, a dining area and bar. In terms of specification, the superyacht is equipped with the most advanced specification by Bilgin at 499 GT so far.’

The Bilgin 170-II’s exterior design has been developed by Emrecan Özgün, who has done a marvellous job of enhancing the 170’s spaciousness and functionality. Her living area has been amplified by the addition of an elongated bridge deck aft, offering those onboard a tranquil environment to enjoy whilst cruising.

The successful platform of the Bilgin 163 has been utilised to create a more traditional bow shape, resulting in the yacht featuring expansive open decks, ample storage and parking and an overall sleeker appearance.

Özgün commented: ‘The layout of the Bilgin 170 series remains identical to the sibling models, ensuring familiarity and ease of use for customers. The primary goal during the design process was to optimise the 50-metre models, achieving a more sporty and masculine look while blending the design seamlessly to offer customers the ability to utilise both open and enclosed spaces under 500 gross tons. This focus on functionality and aesthetics has resulted in a yacht that truly stands out from the crowd.’

From elegant exterior lines to meticulously crafted interior spaces, each and every detail of the Bilgin 170 series has been optimised to elevate the overall yachting experience.

She is scheduled for delivery in time for the pre-season of 2025, whilst the first unit is expected to be delivered by the end of 2024.

Bilgin Yachts currently has a record-breaking 11 yachts under construction, positioning it as a leader of the superyacht industry in Turkey.
