Monaco puts the whole industry in one place. Over the next few days you will step aboard remarkable yachts, meet the crews who run them, and see the technology and craftsmanship that moved the standard forward this year.

When something stands out, tell us.

Nominations for the 2026 ISS Awards of Distinction are still open. The awards recognize the professionals who define this industry's standards through craft, leadership, innovation, and environmental stewardship. An exceptional captain. A crew that made the impossible look routine. A technology or a build detail that genuinely changed how a yacht performs.

Nominations are open to the entire yachting industry at no cost, and submitting one takes about a minute. Every submission is reviewed by a selection panel of industry professionals, and recipients will be honored in Fort Lauderdale at the Design & Leadership Award Gala this October.
