Bodrum Watermaker
Marine Water Systems for Yachts, Sailing Boats, Catamarans & Gulets
Water Independence on the Bodrum Peninsula
Bodrum is one of Turkey's most established yachting centres — and one of its most diverse. The peninsula sits at the crossroads of the Aegean, with easy access to the Greek islands and the Gulf of Gökova, making it a natural base for extended passages in all directions. Milta Bodrum Marina in the town centre, Yalıkavak Marina to the north-west and D-Marin Turgutreis to the west together serve thousands of vessels every season.
The range of boats using Bodrum's waters is unusually wide: compact sailing yachts and performance catamarans on one end, large motor yachts and superyachts on the other. This diversity means watermaker requirements vary significantly — a 12V DC system like the SCW-30 or SCW-50 suits a liveaboard sailor perfectly, while a motor yacht running a generator will benefit from the higher output of the SCW-150 or SCW-350.
The Gulf of Gökova, accessible directly from Bodrum, offers weeks of blue cruising without returning to any marina. A Seacraft watermaker on board means you can anchor in any cove, for as long as you like, with a continuous supply of WHO-standard drinking water.
Seacraft Watermakers provides on-site installation and technical service across Turkey. Our team comes directly to your boat in Bodrum — no need to move to another port.

Why a Watermaker Makes Sense in Bodrum
Gateway to Gökova and the Greek Islands
Bodrum is the departure point for two of the Aegean's great cruising grounds — the Gulf of Gökova and the Dodecanese islands. Multi-day passages away from marinas are the norm here. A watermaker means you never have to cut a trip short for water.
High-Season Marina Costs
Bodrum's marinas are among the busiest and most expensive on the Turkish coast during summer. Producing your own fresh water at electricity cost alone saves meaningfully over a full season — particularly for boats on long-term berths or charter programmes.
Every Boat Type Covered
Bodrum's diverse fleet demands a diverse product range. From 12V DC systems for compact sailing yachts and catamarans to 230V high-output units for motor yachts and superyachts — Seacraft has a model that fits your exact setup.
WHO-Standard Drinking Water
Seacraft watermakers use reverse osmosis technology to produce drinking water that meets WHO standards. At Bodrum's 3.8% salinity, output ranges from 30 litres per hour on the compact SCW-30 to 350 litres per hour on the SCW-350.
Choosing the Right Capacity for Your Boat
Capacity choice depends on how you use your boat — not just its size. Crew numbers, daily consumption habits and available power supply are the key deciding factors.
| Model | Output | Power | Typical Use | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SCW-30 | 30 L/hr | 12V DC | Small sailing yacht, minimal crew, low power preference | View |
| SCW-50 | 50–60 L/hr | 12V DC | Sailing yacht, catamaran, moderate consumption | View |
| SCW-100 | 100 L/hr | 230V / 50Hz | Sailing yacht, catamaran, small-medium motor yacht | View |
| SCW-150 | 150 L/hr | 230V / 50Hz | Motor yacht, gulet, large sailing yacht | View |
| SCW-350 | 350 L/hr | 230V / 50Hz | Large motor yacht, superyacht, large gulet | View |
