One day Erbil Arkin got tired of chartering yachts and decided to build his own. So, in 2010 a two-mast gulet Daima was born, after the launch of which the owner finally formed a desire to be engaged in shipbuilding. The new shipyard was named Arkin Pruva Argos.
Erbil's old friend Rob Humphreys and his studio Humphrey Yacht Design were invited as designers for future boats. The duo proved to be a success and the newly built shipyard was quickly recognized by the yachting community.
It's working.
The company has a small shipyard with two assembly hangars and an attached three-storey office in Antalya.
From his first project, Erbil was inspired by wood boats in the classic style, which reflected on the shipyard's portfolio. The J-Class semi-deck sailing superyachts are mainly found here. The shipyard also carries out completely individual projects, among which there are single and double mast ships.
Behind every Arkin Pruva Argos boat there is a star crew. Burnett Yacht Design, Karatas Yacht Design, Humphrey and other outstanding specialists work together with experienced engineers and shipbuilders of the yard. Perhaps this is why the company's new projects in the yachting industry are treated with due attention.
