The British Yachting Awards celebrate the finest of both the cruising and racing worlds. This year it offers recognition at the end of an extraordinary year, which has seen sailing bounce back from the pandemic and deliver an astonishing breadth of world class events, stories of personal heroism, not to mention providing a mouth-watering array of new boats and gear. Our expert panel had a tough time whittling down our longlist to the exceptional shortlist here. Now it is down to you to decide who wins each of the 12 categories. Your winners will be revealed in the February issue of Sailing Today with Yachts & Yachting, and each will be presented with their British Yachting Awards trophy at our concurrent live and online awards ceremonies, held on November 29. Voting on our dedicated website could not be easier. Choosing, however, may be more difficult...
