About
Who is Kemal Gözcü?
I'm a seaman that's my identity. For over 25 years, I've lived and worked on the water. I've served on commercial private yachts, tour boats, and port services across Turkey's entire coastline: Çeşme, Alanya, Manavgat, Kaş, Fethiye, Marmaris, Bodrum, Istanbul.
This isn't office knowledge or theoretical training. I know boats how they're maintained, how they operate, what safety equipment should look like, which captains run professional operations and which ones cut corners. I've seen it all across different vessels and different ports.
At CertiGo, I serve as the Boat Expert. Every boat tour on our platform is verified by me personally. I inspect the vessel, check safety equipment, evaluate the captain and crew, and test the tour experience. It's an honor to bring my 25+ years of maritime experience to CertiGo's verification process.
Languages: Turkish (native), Arabic, English. My decades working with international tourists and yacht clients means I operate comfortably in these languages.
