The China Yacht Awards, initiated in 2018 by the industry media “Oceanway”, is an annual event for yacht enthusiasts and industry professionals. The 2023 China Yacht Awards is divided into two series: Brand Awards and Boat Awards, and attracts more than 280 brands and companies, and more than 120 boat models to participate in the competition each year. The anticipation was palpable as attendees eagerly awaited the announcement of winners during the awards ceremony.
Sanlorenzo SX100: A Crossover marvel
Awarded as the Best Superyacht of the Year (30-40m), the SX100 is the latest addition to the successful SX range of Sanlorenzo yachts. She is a crossover yacht where spaces and function unites in large open spaces that are in close contact with the sea.
Born from continuous dialogue with its owners, the SX100 fits effortlessly into the popular SX range, adopting and reworking its stylistic features to further optimise onboard spaces. The SX100 perfectly complements the rest of the Sanlorenzo range, which all uniquely embody the spirit and design DNA that Sanlorenzo is so known for.
Sanlorenzo 57Steel: Where form meets function
Winning the Best Interior Design (Superyachts above 40m), The 57Steel is a masterpiece in every sense. This is a vessel where form and function are artistically interwoven.
The exterior of the 57Steel is crafted with precision and flair and promises a commanding presence on the water. The interior mirrors the grandeur of the exterior and is an environment of refined living. A key feature is her 54 square-metre owner’s quarters which houses its own private deck. The owner’s quarters open out to a small glass-fronted pool located forward on the upper deck, with direct access from the master suite.
Bluegame BGM75: A multihull revolution
Awarded the Best Exterior Design (Catamaran above 60ft), the BGM75 is the revolutionary multihull from Bluegame. This innovative vessel was designed in collaboration with renowned naval architect, Luca Santella, and Zuccon International Project design firm. The result is a multihull yacht that redefines luxury and performance, with an unparalleled cruising experience for those fortunate enough to step aboard.
Unlike regular catamarans, which often have a boxy shape with widely spaced hulls, the BGM75 has a sleeker and more elegant grace. The efficient hull is designed by Philippe Briand, a world-renowned expert in the design of high-performance hulls. The BGM75 is a testament to the spirit of adventure, the pursuit of perfection, and the enduring allure of life on the water.
These winning yachts exemplify the pinnacle of design, functionality, and luxury in the industry. If you’re keen to explore these notable models, please get in touch with Simpson Marine at [email protected].
