Megri Yachting · Est. 2010 A maritime legacy, built with mastery.
More than half the air we breathe comes from the sea. The Mediterranean is one of the seas warming fastest in the world. Plastic, careless anchoring, carbon — not a distant problem, but the current reality of the bays we sail in.
More than half of the air we breathe is owed to the sea; most of the planet's oxygen comes from marine ecosystems, not land forests. The Mediterranean is one of the most-studied and fastest-warming seas in the world. Plastic pollution, careless anchoring and rising carbon emissions are not a distant issue — they are the present-day reality of the bays we sail in each season.
That is why we treat sustainability not as a badge or a section title on a website, but as the subject of the daily decisions we make on the water.
The biggest trace a boat leaves often begins where it drops anchor. The Mediterranean's seagrass meadows (Posidonia) take centuries to form; a wound a single anchor opens in seconds can take decades to heal. Planning routes and anchorages with these meadows in mind, using fixed mooring buoys where they exist — small-looking decisions, with a direct effect in the water.
On the design and engineering side our approach is the same: balance weight and power to cut unnecessary consumption, choose materials and systems that put less load on the environment, use energy intelligently without giving up comfort. We don't see luxury and responsibility as alternatives but as two sides of the same work.
The Fethiye coastline is one of the few nesting grounds of Caretta caretta sea turtles. We can't pretend not to know about a fragility this close to us.
We see standing alongside the organisations that run marine conservation and coastline clean-up work in the region, and supporting projects in this area, as a natural part of our job.
We see protecting the sea as shared work for everyone who makes a living from it.
The daily side of the decisions behind design, materials, and systems.
