The occasion for these photographs was a client of “COBANA Boat” — ÇOBAN Maritime — who was brought by helicopter to have a yacht built at our shipyard. That is why the last image is a photograph of the famous Boat-Building Centre “TEKKEÖNÜ”, one of the region’s important assets.
Looking at Amasra from a helicopter; once again, I hope it will REMIND us all NOT TO LOOK DOWN ON IT, but to understand it and protect it. Looking at Amasra from a helicopter; once again, I hope it will remind us all not to look down on it, but to understand and protect it.
