The purpose of this thesis is to study and define the concept of green yachting. The growing interest in environmental protection and low-emission transport is also affecting the yacht market, the thesis aims to study the challenges and opportunities of incorporating green strategies in the yachting industry.
In this context, and as climate change is a major issue, new ways provided by new technologies for energy production are explored, the paper aims to list these issues so that a more focused, sustainable, and green future can be achieved.
To achieve the above, this thesis is based on the literature review, and an attempt is made to conceptually clarify the terms green yachting, green economy, conventions for the protection of the marine environment, and an attempt to categorize them for structured and integrated utilization.
