Lavin

I was born in 1989 in Uşak and originally come from Düzce. After completing my education in Fethiye, Düzce, Ankara, and Anchorage (USA), I started my maritime career in 2015. Over the years, I’ve worked in both Greece and Japan, gaining valuable international experience. I’ve been serving as a captain for five years and currently command LAVIN, my first commercial yacht following four seasons aboard private motor yachts. I speak English fluently and have a good level of Japanese. I also hold a Yacht Captain’s License, STCW safety certificates, and a radio operator certificate. I’m known for remaining calm in challenging conditions and responding swiftly in emergency situations. My priority is always the safety and satisfaction of our guests, ensuring they enjoy a smooth and memorable journey.

My name is Emine Dilan Şentürk, born in 1993 and proudly representing Türkiye in the yachting industry. I work as a stewardess, bringing several years of hospitality experience to the sea. With certifications in Silver Service, Mixology, Flower Arrangement, and Cocktail Preparation, I focus on delivering elegant and thoughtful service. I speak Turkish and German fluently, and have basic English and Greek skills. I hold a degree in Food Science and have worked in both food service and quality control before joining the yachting world. My goal is to make every guest feel well cared for, combining professionalism with a warm, personalized approach.

I was born in 1995 and raised in Germany, where I also completed my culinary education in 2016. Since then, I’ve worked as a chef aboard three private motor yachts. This is my first season working in Türkiye, where I now live. I speak German and Turkish as my native languages and have a basic command of English. I hold certificates in culinary arts, gastronomy, and event management, and I have a strong command of international cuisine. Passionate about cooking and traveling, my goal this season is to further develop my experience and ensure our guests enjoy every moment of their journey through exceptional food and service.

I’ve worked on various vessels including Ölüdeniz Bubbles Diving Center, Demir Bey private tour boat, and the commercial gulets Queen Atlantis (37m) and Prenses Selin (36m). I also hold a seaman’s certificate, a 3-star introductory diving specialist license, and both A2 motorcycle and B class driving licenses. With a B2 level in English, I’m confident in communication and problem-solving.
