THE VALUATION OF THE VESSEL IN THE CURRENT SITUATION, The vessel “GSP PERSEU”, the subject of this file, is type of the “offshore tugboat”. The actional seizure was made on 20/09/2016 at the address of Evliya Çelebi neighborhood, Tersaneler street,14/9,Tuzla by İstanbul Anadolu 7th Bailiff’s Office. It is understood that the vessel has been deprived of maintenance without being in operation for a long time. The vessel was towed away from its location and brought to the dock of the Kuzey Star shipyard and has been lying idle in the same place for more than 4 years without moving or operating any equipment. In the cost formation method; the freight costs of the tugboat in today’s conditions, the date of built, origin, quality and condition of the existing equipment, adequacy of the equipment of tugboat and how long the vessel can work efficiently were taken into consideration. Among the factors affecting the value of the offshore tugboat named “GSP PERSEU”, the aforementioned characteristics of the tugboat, the quality and condition of the sheets and equipment, the operating costs of its equivalents, freight costs and the precedent ship market in the world market are taken into account.

The vessel which subject of lawsuit was built 1994 and it is 26 years old at the time of inspection. In the ordinary course of things, altough it is possible that a boat at this age with the orderly made periodic maintenance of all equipment on the machine deck and wheel house will have the opportunity to be benefited in the world market and offshore and it can be benefited from in maritime trade; as a result of the fact that without any maintenance carried out, without moving it from where it has been for more than 4 years and without the presence of an employee; due to fact that the vessel GSP PERSEU’s deck plate, tow windlass, stem-stern anchor and landing windlass’ assessment,the fact that the deck sheet of these equipment and all the circuits on the deck are completely rusty and inoperable, despite the fact that all the equipment can be found in the engine room but have not been maintained for nearly 5 years,(This maintenance requires high costs. Complete replacement of the fresh water and sea water circuits,, dismantling the machines and bearing controls, maintenance of all compressors and all devices in the machine control room and electrical installations on the electrical panel is required.) although all the equipment is available for navigation on the wheel house, they have not been maintained or checked for a long time and they are not certified, therefore their vitality requires a high cost. . In addition, due to the expiry of the validity period of all the certificates required for the vessel to sail, the vessel may become active in the maritime trade after the renewal of the vessel’s hull, cleaning the vessel’s hull by docking, ainting with antifouling, painting after the change of the sheet metal thinning due to rust on the vessel’s glass and deck sheets for the renewal of the flour obtaining the seaworthiness certificates from the vessel’s classification societies All this requires very high costs.

(*) The holders of the right of easement are also included in the term “those who are concerned”. *: This example corresponds to Example 64, which was used in practice before this Regulation. Due to the circumstances explained above, since the offshore tugboat named “GSP PERSEU” has lost her economic value and technical condition to a large extent due to its current situation, “the vessel has completely lost her economic operation position, since the cost of re-operation, maintenance costs and certification will bring high costs. She looks like scrap in its current state.” “Therefore, the vessel “GSP PERSEU”, which is the subject of the file, could only be evaluated in terms of value over its scrap value, in its current state and as seen.” According to my calculations, the LIGHT SHIP (tare weight) of the vessel is estimated to be around 1000 TONS, and it has been understood that the information obtained from one of the various companies that do shipbreaking and determine the scrap price in Aliağa, where the shipbreaking industry is located andfrom the Aliağa Ship Recycling Industrialists Associationthe researches, it has been understood that the scrap price in the Aliağa shipbreaking zone is 290 USD per ton as of the inspection date of 26.10.2020 for a Vessel with the tonnage of the vessel in question. Scrap prices for vessels in Aliağa shipbreaking zone in Turkey are indicated in the Aliağa market. These prices varies according to market conditions. According to this evaluation;

IN CONCLUSION The value of the “GSP PERSEU” (offshore tugboat) as seen at its location and in its current condition; It was concluded that 1000 TON X 290 USD/TON = USD 290,000.00 (two hundred ninety thousand US dollars). Since the Central Bank’s dollar selling rate was announced as 1 USD = 7.97 TL as of the date of 26/10/2020, the vessel named “GSP PERSEU”, whose value was appraised; As of the date of discovery on 26/10/2020, its value has been calculated to be USD 290,000.00 X 7.97 TL = 2.311.000.00 TL (two million three hundred eleven thousand Turkish liras). “The value found is the current value of the vessel in Tuzla shipyards region. If the vessel is taken to the Aliağa dismantling area for dismantling, the pilotage costs and tugboat towing fees should be reduced, since the vessel is incapable of maneuvering and navigating.” Address : Tuzla Tersaneler Bölgesi, Evliya Çelebi Mahallesi, Tersaneler Caddesi, No: 14/9 Tuzla /ISTANBUL Value : 2.311.000,00 TRY VAT Rate : 18 % Annotations in the Record : It is as in the Ship Registry record.
