NOTICE OF THE 2026 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF THE YACHT AND BOAT INDUSTRY ASSOCIATION

Dear Member,

In accordance with our Articles of Association and the Associations Act, our Association’s 2026 Ordinary General Meeting will be held on Monday 16 February 2026 at 10.30 am to discuss the following ‘agenda items’; should a quorum not be present, the second meeting will take place on Monday 23 February 2026 at 10.30 am at the Semerkand Hall within the Istanbul Fair Centre (İFM) (located in the meeting rooms section on the upper floor of Hall 3), in Yeşilköy.

Directions to the Venue:

Before entering through Exhibition Gates 2–5, proceed through the open space on the left-hand side outside these gates and follow the directional signs, or follow the guidance of our staff to reach the Semerkand Meeting Area.

Members arriving via Exit 1 of Hall 1 should proceed towards the metro (to the left) and enter via the section marked ‘İFM Offices’, where they can seek assistance from our staff.

In previous years’ General Assembly Meetings, as a sufficient quorum was generally not achieved on the first meeting date, meetings have typically taken place on the second meeting date; we look forward to welcoming all our members to our General Assembly Meeting.

In accordance with the provisions of our Articles of Association, membership fees for 2026 and earlier years must be paid in full to attend the General Assembly Meeting (NOTE). Only the Chairpersons of the Boards of Directors of our member companies or a person authorised to represent the company (with a letter of authorisation bearing the company stamp) may attend the meeting and cast a vote.

NOTE: Members with outstanding membership fees will be able to settle their debts prior to the meeting via a POS terminal using a credit card; attendance at the meeting will be permitted once the debt has been settled.
