The awards recognise and celebrate those individuals and companies excelling in the detail to push both their brands and the industry forward. An international panel of judges has chosen 23 companies as the front-runners across six award categories, singling out those yacht manufacturers and individuals that are really pushing the boundaries in the way they market, develop, design and build their yachts.
