The Awards is both a personal achievement and an industrywide recognition of professional excellence.

Fellow Captains and Crew within the industry have been nominated and the finalists and winners have been determined

by our

judging panel of 19 former and current Senior Crew and Industry Professionals. There are 61 finalists spread across 14 different award categories that aim to reward all the departments onboard for their efforts and dedication to the Superyacht Industry.

Superyacht Industry

Amels, with a centuries-old Dutch family shipbuilding heritage dating back to 1918 in Makkum, North Holland, has transformed from building fishing boats and tugboats to pioneering the modern superyacht industry. The legacy began with the launch of the KATALINA, the first Amels superyacht, which set the stage for the luxury fleet that stands today. In 1991, when Kommer Damen of Damen Shipyards acquired Amels, it integrated another century of Dutch shipbuilding expertise into the brand while preserving its roots. Damen’s platform shipbuilding philosophy further strengthened Amels, ensuring its growth, resilience, and ongoing success.
