The new Allures 51.9, whose first unit was launched in July 2021, was nominated to take part to 2022 European Yacht of the Year Award (so-called EYOTY) in the Bluewater Cruiser category.
“EYOTY is the most important, influential and most widely communicated boatbuilding prize worldwide. Often referred to as the „Oscar“ of yachting, it reaches an international audience of several million sailing enthusiasts, boat owners and industry executives”, as mentioned on the the EYOTY website.
“Initiated by German sail magazine YACHT, it was first presented at boot Düsseldorf in 2004. Today 12 magazines from all over Europe make up the jury, each of them the leading voice in their respective countries and respected beyond national borders”, is it explained on the same website.
The award team should meet and test the nominated boats in La Rochelle at the beginning of October, a few days before Grand Pavois boatshow begins. We’ll of course let you informed of this topic.
