The Turkish shipyard RMK Yachts has signed a new design partnership with Espen Oeino International. The renowned studio will develop a 50-metre superyacht for RMK Yachts.
The project will feature a steel hull and an aluminium superstructure. Espen Oeino will create the yacht’s design.
“The 50-metre segment is a competitive space, yet it remains the ideal size for discovering most coastlines, especially when paired with a capable chase boat,” said Espen Oeino. “I do believe we are heading towards a future with yachts which are not just more sustainable but also more fit for purpose. This will translate into yachts that provide more meaningful experiences with less environmental impact and less trouble for both owners and crew. RMK Yachts is a great partner for such a project, because we all are passionate about the sea, yacht design, and yacht building. And also they have formidable industrial strength.”
Design work is set to begin in December 2025, with the model scheduled to be unveiled in the second quarter of 2026.
“We are thrilled to collaborate with Espen Oeino, one of the most respected names in yacht design,” said Cüneyt Okcu, Director of RMK Yachts. “His vision and creativity perfectly align with RMK’s commitment to building yachts that go beyond time, both in quality and in design.”
This partnership represents a significant milestone in RMK Yachts’ ongoing pursuit of excellence, reinforcing the shipyard’s position among the leading builders of high-end superyachts.
