Asia Boating Awards Winners

The Asia Boating Awards recognize the best yachts, brands, marinas and clubs, charter companies, builders, boat shows, and more. Held each year in April, the ceremony takes place in Singapore the day before the opening of the Singapore Yacht Show.

Created in 2005 by Asia-Pacific Boating and China Boating magazines, the Asia Boating Awards showcase both the Asian market and the international market - with around 25 categories in total.

Nominations for each category come from online polling from Asia-Pacific Boating and China Boating readers before they go to an esteemed panel of judges, of whom are all heavily involved in the superyacht industry.

Postponed after the 2019 edition due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, the award ceremony has taken a long-term pause but organizers are keen to assure the industry the ceremony will return.
