MAKO SHARK - TUFAN AND BROTHERS FOR SALE

Mako Shark is the outcome of a distinguished alliance between visionary yacht designer Rıza Tansu and the master craftsmen of Tufan and Brothers Yachting Company, uniting forward-thinking style with rigorous naval engineering. This meeting of minds delivers a Luxury Motor Yacht that blends dramatic presence with meticulous construction, offering an Explorer Yacht of substance and character whose every detail is shaped by experience on the water.

Outside, Mako Shark carries the unmistakable confidence of Tansu’s multi-award-winning aesthetic. The profile is purposeful and contemporary, with crisp, muscular geometry and a commanding, near-military stance that signals range, resilience, and adventure. Its expedition DNA is unmistakable: a Bluewater, ocean‑going silhouette conceived for real-world passage making yet sculpted with elegance.

Inside, the yacht privileges poise and practicality in equal measure. Broad, light-filled lounges, refined materials, and carefully curated furnishings create an atmosphere of quiet sophistication that is as inviting on a weekend escape as it is on a month-long voyage. The interior concept, authored by Rıza Tansu, places comfort, privacy, and flow at the forefront, shaping generous social areas and restful cabins that are ideal for extended cruising.

Engineered as a Long-Range Cruiser and true Passagemaker, Mako Shark is designed for stability, endurance, and efficiency across shifting seas. Her robust systems architecture and redundancy ethos provide confidence to explore remote horizons, while the hull form and weight distribution ensure capable, predictable handling and a composed ride. This is an Expedition Yacht built to go far—and to do so beautifully.

Inspired by the agility and authority of its namesake, the yacht’s concept distills strength and precision into a sleek, athletic form. The naval architecture favors adaptability and control, translating the mako’s swift decisiveness into crisp maneuverability and reassuring seakeeping across diverse conditions.

Mako Shark measures 26.5 meters LOA with a 23.3-meter LWL, a broad 7.63-meter beam, and a 1.8-meter draft, yielding a confident 200 gross tons and a full-load displacement of 145 tonnes. The layout welcomes up to 10 guests, supported by a professional crew of 4 to 5, balancing private retreat with effortless service. Storage and tankage are scaled for autonomy: 22,500 liters of fuel, 2,500 liters of fresh water, and 2,000 liters each for black and grey water, underpinning serious cruising ambitions.

Range is deeply impressive for her class: approximately 3,000 nautical miles at 9 knots and up to 4,500 nautical miles at 8 knots, enabling transoceanic itineraries with generous reserves. A serene 10-knot cruising speed and a 13-knot top speed at quarter load keep passages smooth and efficient, aligning comfort with purposeful pace.

Propulsion comes from twin CUMMINS X15 engines rated at 630 HP each, paired to ZF 1:3.000 gearboxes driving two 1,100 mm, five-blade Ni.Al.Br propellers. Precision handling is enhanced by an Electro-Hydraulic steering system and a Side-Power SH550 bow thruster, while Humphree zero-speed fins deliver outstanding stabilization both underway and at anchor. Taken together, the package elevates control, comfort, and confidence in every sea state.

Built on a full-displacement hull of marine-grade steel with a superstructure of marine-grade aluminium, Mako Shark embodies the durability and poise of a steel-hull, full‑displacement motor yacht. This ocean-going platform prioritizes strength, serviceability, and longevity, all with a refined finish that speaks to Tufan and Brothers’ exacting standards.

Electrical and hotel systems are dimensioned for quiet power and seamless autonomy. Two KOHLER 28 kW generators and a 66 kW Mastervolt lithium-ion battery bank (12 units) feed a suite of six Mastervolt Combi Pro 24/3500-100 inverter/chargers and a 30 kVA shore power transformer, ensuring robust, flexible energy management in marina or at sea. The result is a discreet, reliable backbone that supports every onboard comfort.

Climate control and amenities are equally comprehensive. Zero-speed fins work in concert with rockwool insulation for acoustic and thermal calm, while a CRUISAIR installation—two 72,000 BTU units with multiple fan coils—keeps each living space tuned to the perfect temperature. A Horizon Seafari 225 watermaker bolsters self-sufficiency, and a TF TC25/1 pump powers the Jacuzzi for unhurried relaxation with a view.

Safety is engineered in depth, with an FM200 fire suppression system in the engine room, automatic sprinklers throughout the interior, and a powerful Gianneschi bilge setup rated at 400 liters per minute. Two six-person life rafts, comprehensive life jackets and buoys, and full fire detection and extinguisher coverage meet the expectations of a modern adventure yacht and Bluewater superyacht alike.

Navigation and communications are delivered by a cohesive SIMRAD suite headlined by a HALO 3 radar and dual NSO-16 EVO3 displays. Integrated autopilot, GPS, AIS, VHF, and weather station functions streamline watchkeeping and passage planning, while TP-Link Deco Mesh provides reliable 4G internet coverage onboard. Command is intuitive, information is clear, and decisions are supported in real time.

The galley is professionally equipped with a complete Siemens package—oven, cooktop, hood, dishwasher, refrigerator, and freezer—supplemented by a wine cooler, ice makers, and minibar units that make hosting effortless. Entertainment is curated via Samsung televisions from 32 to 55 inches across main salons and cabins, with immersive audio delivered by Yamaha soundbars, JL Audio deck speakers, and HELIX amplifiers.

On deck, Foresti Suardi lighting sculpts the exterior with a warm, contemporary glow, accentuating the yacht’s strong lines by night. Boarding and shore access are refined through an Opacmare gangway, while EMA watertight hatches and doors reinforce the vessel’s expedition-ready integrity without compromising her sleek aesthetic. Every element speaks to a yacht designed to go further, crafted to feel special, and built to last.

Under the stewardship of Tufan and Brothers for naval architecture, engineering, and project management—and with Rıza Tansu’s creative signature inside and out—Mako Shark stands as a compelling statement in the Explorer Yacht realm. It is a luxury, ocean‑going Passagemaker that marries bold form with disciplined function, welcoming ten guests into an environment of calm capability and understated grandeur. For owners seeking a refined, go-anywhere motor yacht with true long-range credentials, Mako Shark is both invitation and promise.
