Sorry guys, looks like it's not Turkish design. KSY just used that photo for presentation only. I edited the specifications. This is the actual design of the boats which was done by Robert Allan Ltd.

So they have used the Turkish design in the ceremony? It is definitely AMT's 35 meters ER-DSB in the ceremonial background.

Yeah, this is the first time they did something like this i think. Cause i always saw them using original photo of the vessel in the banner. I actually liked the Turkish one TBH.
