Aiata has reached an exciting milestone with the debut of the Wayfinder 38 at Boot Düsseldorf 2025. Displayed in three configurations – Cabin, Suntop, and Fishing – this versatile walkaround boat highlights its adaptability for various boating lifestyles.
Transforming Vision into Reality
Aiata was born from Anadolu Group’s ambitious vision to redefine the outboard boating industry. This vision drove significant investments in converting a 20,000-square-meter facility in Çayırova into a state-of-the-art production hub. Once a general manufacturing site, the facility has been reimagined to meet the intricate demands of modern boat production.
Designed for Versatility
The Wayfinder 38 is the creation of Jarkko Jämsén and the award-winning team at Navia, renowned Finnish designers and naval architects. Their focus was to craft a 38-footer that exceeds expectations in spaciousness and delivers exceptional versatility.
Central to the boat’s design is its next-level modular approach, which allows owners to customize their boating experience. This innovation allows a sun-top to transform into an enclosed cabin—or vice versa—providing unmatched flexibility.

- Suntop: Offers a spacious open-air layout, perfect for connecting with nature during day trips or casual outings.

A Milestone in Production
In its first 12 months, Aiata plans to produce 38 units of the Wayfinder 38, gradually ramping up mass production. With the introduction of additional models and molds, the facility is projected to reach an annual production capacity of 250 units of boats measuring 38 feet or longer.
The debut of the Wayfinder 38 at Boot Düsseldorf 2025 marks a defining moment for Aiata as it enters the global boating stage, offering a product designed to elevate the boating experience for enthusiasts worldwide.
