A sculptor's boatyard · Bozburun, Türkiye
Boats built
like sculptures
Founded by a sculptor and named after Frida Kahlo, our yard turns solid mahogany into heirlooms — one hull at a time, in the village that taught the Aegean to build boats.
The yard
A sculptor's yard,
a village's craft
Frida Yachting was founded by a sculptor who calls his boats his largest works. In Bozburun — the Aegean village that taught half the coast to build wooden hulls — his team lays triple-skin mahogany over hand-laminated frames, and finishes it like an instrument.
Three hulls are on the floor right now, from a classic runabout to a 24-metre sailing yacht. Every stage is shared openly with twenty thousand people who follow the yard build by build — and every keel carries its owner's name.

The signature
Three hulls, one floor, no moulds
Two commissions and one of the yard's own designs are in build at this moment — each one drawn from scratch, framed by hand and shared step by step. At Frida, no boat is the continuation of a ready mould.
The build journeyIn their words
From the build journal
Aurora 27 came out of a process we shared step by step, from the first line to the water. Not just a boat that appeared — a story that grew. The attention she has drawn since launch day is the answer.
Let me introduce the largest sculpture I have ever made: Aurora 27. Coming to the water very soon.
At Frida, no boat is the continuation of a ready mould — design, engineering and craft move forward together. Send us a boat you love, and we will re-imagine it in the Frida line.
