Hi, I’m Batuhan Tarim. I am a trusted Sales Broker and New Build Specialist at Northrop & Johnson Monaco, bringing years of Benetti Yachts expertise in superyacht sales and new builds across both GRP and steel/aluminum. My focus is on guiding clients seamlessly through the purchase and construction process while building long-lasting, trust-based relationships.
My role is centered on building lasting relationships, providing tailored advice, and ensuring every stage of the transaction, from initial enquiry to delivery, is handled with precision and care.
The most rewarding part of my job is connecting with clients from diverse backgrounds and helping them realize their yachting dreams. The challenge and thrill lie in aligning complex technical, legal, and personal expectations to create a seamless experience.
My Past
I was born and raised in Istanbul, where I attended Saint-Joseph French High School before studying a BSc in Engineering at Istanbul Technical University. At the age of 23, I moved to Italy to pursue a Master’s in International Management at Bocconi University, followed by a Master's in Yacht Design at Politecnico di Milano.
In 2019, I joined Benetti Yachts in Livorno, where I advanced to Area Sales Manager for Europe. Over more than six years, I was involved in every stage of the new build process, design, technical meetings, contractual negotiations, and delivery. This experience gave me hands-on knowledge of Benetti’s world-class yachts, from the 30m up to 100+ meters.
My years at Benetti shaped my detail-oriented, client-first approach and allowed me to build lasting relationships based on trust, discretion, and results.
My Future
At Northrop & Johnson, my goal is to leverage my past expertise and international network to serve clients with excellence, whether they are looking to acquire, sell, or build their next yacht. Personally, I aspire to continue growing as a trusted advisor in the yachting industry, helping to shape memorable experiences at sea for my clients.
My Motto
“Every detail matters when it comes to earning and keeping a client’s trust.”
My Outside-Office Life
I have been sailing since 1997, competed with the Turkish National Sailing Team, and continue to race in Italy today. Outside of yachting, I enjoy CrossFit, skiing, golf, and traveling
