Awards
Vripack’s international accolades and achievements span decades and disciplines, shining a light on the design studio’s in-house range and creative reach.
ACKNOWLEDGED FOR ITS INGENUITY AND INNOVATION
It is always an honor to have the ingenuity and innovation of one’s designs, engineering and construction acknowledged by such esteemed bodies as the World Superyacht Awards, the International Superyacht Society Design and Leadership, and the Design & Innovation Awards, and this humbling experience has been granted the studio more than 45 times.
VOYAGER’S AWARD
Some of the studio’s yachts have even been honored multiple times, owing to refits or rebuilds. The prestigious Voyager’s Award, awarded to the yacht that, in the judges’ opinion, completed the most inspirational cruise in the preceding year, has been won more times by Vripack’s yachts than by those of any other yacht-designer.
RICH HISTORY OF YACHTING
Gratifying as these awards may be for both designer and builder, each is also an acknowledgment of the respective owner’s ambition, and of their contribution both to the craft of yacht-building and to the rich history of yachting. Each yacht is the result of two or three years of dedication on the part of the team, builders, and owner, united for a common goal: the creation of yet another world-beating yacht on which both owner and crew can feel at home at sea.
