Yacht
Awards
A yearly record of the charter yachts that turn design, service and capability into a better week at sea.
One fleet snapshot. One edition every year.
The Blue Ocean Club Yacht Awards are an online editorial selection of yachts actively offered for crewed charter. Each edition assesses yachts within populated size classes and chooses five finalists, one category winner and one overall Charter Yacht of the Year.
There is no ceremony, ticket, gala, entry fee or paid placement. The award focuses on the charter guest: layout, service proposition, water access, amenities, destination capability, condition and value within class.
