50-METRE CAMILA DELIVERED AND TAKES TO THE SEAS
Bilgin Yachts proudly announces the delivery of M/Y CAMILA, the latest masterpiece in its celebrated Bilgin 163 series. Launched from the shipyard’s Istanbul headquarters, the 50-metre superyacht is a bold expression of contemporary elegance, blending striking exterior lines with refined, thoughtfully crafted interiors. Delivered to her experienced owner in May 2025, CAMILA is now set to make her debut on the Mediterranean circuit this
summer.
“The delivery of CAMILA is a proud moment for our entire team,” says İsmail Şengün, CEO of Bilgin Yachts. “This yacht represents a close and creative collaboration with her owner, resulting in a vessel that perfectly balances personal vision with Bilgin’s signature craftsmanship.”
CAMILA’s layout is designed to maximize both indoor and outdoor living, featuring expansive sundecks, a spacious beach club, and beautifully appointed guest suites. With naval architecture and exterior styling by Unique Yacht Design, the yacht boasts a sporty silhouette and generous volumes. “Her design is a testament to the art of blending functionality with beauty,” said Emrecan Özgün, founder of Unique Yacht Design. According to Özgün, as a brand-new model, with 20% larger areas than 48-meter yachts, this yacht offers even more space for guests to enjoy.
Inside, the renowned Hot Lab studio has curated interiors that exude modern sophistication. “Stepping aboard CAMILA, one is immediately captivated by an atmosphere of refined elegance and sophisticated luxury. The interior design effortlessly blends modern aesthetics with timeless style, creating spaces that are both inviting and visually stunning,” says Enrico Lumini, Partner and Head of Design at Hot Lab.
Throughout the Bilgin 163 CAMILA, attention to detail is impeccable and reflects the constantly improving approach of Bilgin Shipyard to the smallest elements. Each one demonstrates an unwavering commitment to quality and craftsmanship. Beautiful craftmanship is present and visible in every corner: from the incredible onyx table in the main dining area to the hundreds of glass leaves we may admire in the 6 meters high lobby chandelier. Guests encounter a space defined by tasteful minimalism and exquisite detailing. In the lobby the use of reflective surfaces
such as glass and polished metals introduces a sense of airy openness, while subtle artistic accents and bespoke fixtures underscore the yacht’s luxurious yet understated ambiance.
Frank Grzeszczak Jr., Vice President of FGI Yacht Group, played a pivotal role in bringing this project to fruition. “I feel honored to have merged this partnership between an experienced and demanding client, and Bilgin Shipyard. It has been nothing short of an exceptional experience. Our 50-meter project, lovingly named CAMILA, will gracefully cruise the Mediterranean this summer with her new proud owner. She will undoubtedly turn heads as she cruises the Mediterranean this summer.”
Powered by twin 1,450hp CAT engines, CAMILA reaches a top speed of 16.5 knots and offers an impressive range of 5,000 nautical miles at cruising speed -perfect for long, luxurious voyages. Her carefully considered layout maximizes both indoor and outdoor living, with expansive sun decks, a spacious beach club, and beautifully appointed guest suites that elevate the onboard experience.
Berkay Yılmaz, Commercial Director of Bilgin Yachts, highlighted the yacht’s bespoke features: “We take immense pride in seeing this project come to fruition. Our team has worked tirelessly, and the result is a truly stunning yacht. The distinctive elegance of M/Y CAMILA will undoubtedly capture attention wherever she goes. She is another stunning yacht which will cruise to US Waters and I am grateful to work with an experienced yacht owner who was heavily involved with her design process with Hotlab. Interiors have been described as a beautiful, bespoke homage to the owner’s lifestyle and elegantly designed elements inside and outside made her a stunning yacht. I
personally thank you for our collaboration with the owner and Frank Grzeszczak, FGI.”
Following the success of Snow 5 and Starburst III, CAMILA strengthens Bilgin Yachts’ reputation as a leader in bespoke superyacht construction. Her striking design and unparalleled craftsmanship ensure she will leave an indelible mark on the global stage.
