YACHT BUILDING IN BODRUM
The tradition of building ships in Bodrum is as old as the town, going back at least some 2500 years. History records that Artemisia, the ruler of Caria, commanded her own naval squadron in the battle of Salamis in 480 BC, lending credence to the belief that ships were built in or near the city of Halicarnassus, the ancient name of Bodrum. The seafaring traditions of the Carians and Dorians, who lived together in Halicarnassus and supplied ships to Egyptian Pharaohs, add weight to the premise that shipbuilding here is an ancient craft. Late records, from the days of the Ottoman Empire, show that Bodrum shipwrights did build ships for the Ottoman navy. Indeed, we are told that in 1793 Mehmet Kaptan, the Bodrum port master, and one of his subordinates were prisoned because two ships they were responsible for building broke up in moderate seas in the Mediterranean! There are also records of several galleons measuring about 30 meters in length, one equipped with 80 guns, being built here in the first half of the 19th century.
