On Monday 4 June, Hayati Kamhi, 62, died at his home in Istanbul. Kamhi was one of the founding partners of Turkish superyacht builder Proteksan Turquoise.
Kamhi formed the company with Mehmet Karabeyoglu over 18 years ago, and the shipyard has built 21 yachts over 30m. The latest to be completed is Vicky, a 72m motoryacht delivered in May this year, the yard's longest build to date.
The funeral will take place at 12 noon on Wednesday 6 June at Neve Shalom Synagogue, Buyuk Hendek Cad. No 39, Shishane, Istanbul ((+90) 0121 292 03 86 | nevesalom.org).
