@ Nilo: I already made a correction. These are not Apreamare's or Rapsody's but made by Breedendam i thought. (Breedendam MTB 33)

Breedendam, in contrary to a part of the Rapsody production, are absolutely not build by Egemar; these are built in Holland, hence their high prize.

you may be right. my knowledge is that the rapsody boats are built in turkey by egemar under an agreement and not all the models may be built by egemar.

Breedendam is not a model, but a brand, offering a range from sloop to the Lobsterlike boats of the picture.

Neventheless, Turkey has a lot of excellent crafsman and a growing number of wharfs like Egemar and Proteksan that prove this; i am aware of this and i think a growing number of boatlovers are too

Hi Coen,

The image of the last yachts are not a Mulder 73, but simply the 59 Hardtop.
Thanks for the nice images
