CAPTAIN : Ünsal Kobal
• My name is Ünsal Kobal, born in Giresun in 1995. I hold both high
school and university degrees in maritime studies and have been in
the yachting industry for over 11 years— 7 of those as a captain.
Including my education, I have 17 years of maritime background.

including M/Y POINT (Absolute 53), M/Y KATTY (Maiora 70), M/Y
ALLEGRIA (Mangusta 72), and M/Y KNG (Ferretti 72). I hold licenses
up to 3000 GRT as a limited watchkeeping officer.
• Outside of work, I’m passionate about swimming, cooking, and
freediving. I come from a family with a 70-year history in the
restaurant business, which has given me a strong appreciation for
food. While I do smoke, I’m always discreet and respectful of guest
comfort.
