Absolute Yachts has been honoured with one of the most prestigious awards in the international yachting industry: the Navetta 62 has won Best Passagemaker Motor Yacht at the 2026 Motor Boat Awards, presented by Motor Boat & Yachting during the official ceremony held in Dusseldorf.
The Motor Boat Awards are regarded as among the most authoritative accolades in the industry and are granted exclusively on the basis of objective criteria such as design, seakeeping capabilities, build quality and value for money within each market segment. All shortlisted yachts are subjected to rigorous sea trials conducted by the technical jury of Motor Boat & Yachting.

Winning the Best Passagemaker Motor Yacht category confirms the excellence of the Navetta 62 project, one of the models that most clearly represents the Absolute Yachts vision: a yacht conceived for long-range cruising, capable of delivering comfort, autonomy and safety, while integrating innovative design solutions and maintaining a distinctive, contemporary style.
Navetta 62 stands out for its exterior design, defined by extensive glazed surfaces and modern lines that enhance natural light and visual continuity with the sea, as well as for versatile and modular outdoor spaces that significantly improve onboard liveability. The large panoramic flybridge, equipped with sunbathing areas and dedicated social spaces, is one of the key strengths of the project.
The interiors also express a high level of comfort and refinement, with bright and airy environments, premium finishes, full-height curtains, a fully equipped galley and living areas designed to encourage relaxation and social interaction. The lower-deck layout — featuring spacious cabins and solutions focused on privacy and wellbeing — reflects a design approach centred on real onboard experience.
The 2026 edition of the Motor Boat Awards featured one of the most competitive shortlists ever, with finalists from Europe, the UK and international markets, underlining the exceptionally high standard of the global yachting industry.
“This award represents an important recognition of the work carried out by our team and of the design philosophy behind Absolute Yachts,” commented the company’s board. “Being recognised by an independent jury, following extensive sea trials, is a source of great pride.”
