Organisers of The Honours have unveiled further details about its upcoming third edition, which is set to take place on the eve of the 2025 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show<\/a> (28 October) at the newly inaugurated Pier Sixty-Six in Fort Lauderdale.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In a first for the awards, all three honourees will be women, each one said to be a “trailblazer in her own right”. Due to be officially unveiled on the evening, the organisers hinted at the recipients: one “a visionary reshaping the future of sustainable design”, another, “the magician behind some of the most ambitious scientific projects in the world”, and the third “a yacht owner whose conservation work is making waves internationally”. Each honouree will receive a coveted Bowspirit Award.<\/p>\n

The Honours was previously held on the eve of the Monaco Yacht Show<\/p>\n

Now in its third year, The Honours was curated from within the superyacht industry to celebrate those whose initiatives “advance science, protect the planet, support communities, and inspire others through courage, creativity, and compassion”. Nominees are sent from yacht owners and professionals around the world.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In 2025, the judging panel \u2013 welcomed by Andrew Doole, president of US Boat Shows at Informa, and led by Farouk Nefzi, CMO at Feadship<\/a> \u2013 received 238 nominations.<\/p>\n

“The Honours is not just another awards ceremony,” said The Superyacht Life Foundation’s executive director, Dilan Sarac. “It is a storytelling platform designed to change perceptions of superyachting by celebrating the people who are using the industry as a vessel for progress. What unites our Honourees is the impact they make \u2013 proof that this industry has the power to contribute far beyond its own borders. Personally, I\u2019m thrilled about this year\u2019s event, not least because for the first time, all of our Honourees are women. I can\u2019t wait to share their stories with the world.”<\/p>\n

Hosted in association with the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show (FLIBS), the 2025 edition will begin with sunset cocktails, followed by \u2018stories in the spotlight\u2019 as this year\u2019s Honourees are revealed, later concluding with a celebratory dinner using locally sourced, seasonal ingredients. Guests will also enjoy a “one-of-a-kind live musical performance”.<\/p>\n

“This event underscores the innovation and humanity within the superyacht community, and gives a global stage to individuals whose work transcends luxury and delivers real change,” Doole added. “As the world\u2019s largest in-water boat show, FLIBS is proud to host The Honours in the beautiful setting of Pier Sixty-Six.”<\/p>\n
