Welcome to the Board
MISSION
On this path that I set out on with my passion for the sea, I aim to guide sailors with my knowledge, experience and tips. The blog and logbook sections on my site offer inspiring and valuable information for those interested in the world of sailing. With my expertise in sailing training, I prepare quality programs for all levels and support companies in professionally establishing their corporate racing teams. In addition, I provide a safe journey at sea with the boat transfer services I meticulously provide. I invite you to join this adventure!

During my years of involvement with sailing, I have introduced many people to the world of sailing by sharing my passion for seafaring.
My experiences as the captain of the Beykoz University Sailing Team taught me how leadership and team spirit are meaningful at sea. This experience has been one of the cornerstones of my professional sailing life. I previously worked as a sailing instructor at Hedef Sailing, Tok Sailing, Youth Sailing, and provided training for both beginners and advanced sailors.
My trainings aim to help participants have a safer and more enjoyable relationship with the sea by emphasizing conscious sailing and sea safety. Currently, I offer sailing training, corporate race team coaching, boat transfer and skippering services under the name of Yahya Ata Yachting. My aim is to inspire more people about sailing and provide a professional experience by sharing the passion for the sea.
