Arya Shipyard

Arya Shipyard builds steel, aluminium and HDPE (high compressed polymer) workboats in Tuzla, Istanbul, and also offers repair and refit work. The yard combines an in-house design team with serial "proven design" ranges, and keeps vessels under construction or completed in stock so buyers can take short-delivery or turn-key craft. Its HDPE activity stems from a partnership with polymer boat producer SFK MARIN (2010), later renamed ARYAN BOAT as a division of Arya Shipyard. The WORKSAFE division covers security, safety and patrol boats. The homepage notes vessels sold to P&O Maritime (shipped to Mozambique), SMIT LAMNAMCO, and a Service Barge 1500 delivered to Senegal.
