Abstract

In the scope of the research, determination of preference criteria of yacht owners, applicability of the most suitable marina and selected methods to the marina selection problem were evaluated and findings obtained by different methods were compared and to what extent these methods contributed to the decision-making process and how consistent they were. In this study, the criteria of yacht owners to prefer marinas of our country are tried to be determined by using Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) which is one of the multi criteria decision making methods. Weight input values obtained by AHP were used in TOPSIS (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) and PROMETHEE methods, which are multi-criteria decision-making methods, to evaluate yacht owners to determine the most suitable marina alternative for themselves. As a result of the study, consistent and real-life results were obtained, it was concluded that AHP, TOPSIS and PROMETHEE methods could be used for decision support during selection.
