The Superyacht Design Symposium (SDS) 2016 kicked off with the always popular Welcome Cocktail on Sunday February 21.

To ease everyone into the Superyacht Design Symposium, and build excitement before the prestigious ShowBoats Design Awards the next day, all the designs by the finalists of the Young Designer of the Year Award were on display at the party.
