The categories for the World Superyacht Awards 2018

We define a displacement yacht as a vessel that always displaces their own weight of water when under power at full speed.

Gross tonnage and length are the deciding entry qualifications in the displacement classes. Because of this, the yacht’s gross tonnage as well as length overall must be given.

It is anticipated that this category will be divided into sub-categories once nominations have been received.
