Winners will be decided by a public vote, with the results announced at an exclusive ceremony during the International Multihull Show in France.
Prestige M7
The Prestige M7 boasts over 200 m² of living space, a seamless onboard flow, panoramic views, and luxury finishes. If you seek a private sanctuary for peaceful getaways, this spectacular catamaran is a welcoming retreat for family vacations or a unique setting for social gatherings on the water.
“The M7 takes PRESTIGE into a new dimension. It is the culmination of unprecedented use of space, innovative configuration, remarkable efficiency, and a unique style.”
Bruno Thivoyon, CEO and Chairman of Groupe Beneteau
Lagoon 38
Designed for comfortable, carefree cruising, the new Lagoon 38 is perfect for families and couples. The spacious layout brings everyone together, and the large sliding doors from the aft cockpit seamlessly connect the saloon and galley. Side-access transoms and excellent storage also make everyday life onboard simple, creating a laid-back ambience.
“We are really pleased to see that the Lagoon 38 has been nominated for the Multihull of the Year awards. Its superb stability and simple sail controls make it an excellent choice for new and experienced multihull owners. We expect this cruising catamaran to be extremely popular.”
Hannah Le Prevost, Lagoon Catamarans Brand Manager
McConaghy MC68
The voluminous MC68 by McConaghy Multihulls offers lots of space for its size, as well as excellent sailing performance and impressive bluewater capabilities. The generous flybridge combined with expansive indoor/outdoor living on the main deck makes fast cruising as comfortable as it is thrilling, even during long passages at sea.
“The MC68 is a great contender for this prestigious award. McConaghy Multihulls are unmatched when it comes to blending performance cruising with luxurious, fully customisable interiors.”
Hannah Le Prevost, McConaghy Multihulls Brand Manager
Bluegame BGF45
The groundbreaking BGF45 from Bluegame is a cutting-edge foil-assisted multihull that redefines performance and efficiency on the water. Compact in size but immense in personality, the BGF45 is designed for those who seek greater performance, freedom, and connection with the sea. With its deep-V hull, walkaround decks, and open cockpit, every aspect invites you to live without limits.
“The BGF45 is a genuine disruptor. It’s faster, lighter, more efficient and more fun to drive than most monohull sportscruisers of 50-55ft. It’s also a very distinctive craft both in the way it looks and what it has to offer.”
