Guests of The Rendezvous and the industry’s leading creative talents will join boat International in celebrating excellence in yacht design at a glittering awards ceremony and gala dinner, to be held at the magnificent Monaco Opera House on the second day of The Rendezvous in Monaco.

The ShowBoats Design Awards focuses specifically on fundamental aspects of superyacht design such as naval architecture, exterior design and interior layout, and brings the specialist design skills of the industry’s most talented teams into the spotlight.  In 2012, a revised list of eighteen categories and subcategories has been devised in consultation with superyacht owners, builders and designers, to best reflect the talents the ShowBoats Design Awards aim to recognise.
