Absolute Yachts wins the “Motor Boat Awards 2026” with Navetta 62

Absolute Yachts kicks off 2026 with a new prestigious milestone on the international boating scene: the Navetta 62 has won the Motor Boat Awards 2026 in the Best Passagemaker Motor Yacht category, one of the industry’s most coveted accolades, presented by the British magazine Motor Boat & Yachting during the official ceremony held in Düsseldorf.

The Motor Boat Awards are considered among the most authoritative prizes in the sector and are granted exclusively on the basis of objective criteria, including design, seakeeping abilities, build quality and value for money within the relevant market segment. All shortlisted yachts undergo rigorous sea trials carried out by the Motor Boat & Yachting technical jury, making the award a true proving ground for the most advanced projects. Winning the Best Passagemaker Motor Yacht category confirms the excellence of the Navetta 62, one of the models that best represents the Absolute Yachts vision.

Designed for long-range cruising, the Navetta 62 offers a modern interpretation of the passagemaker concept, combining range, safety and comfort with distinctive design solutions. The exterior styling is defined by expansive glazed surfaces and clean, contemporary lines, enhancing the visual connection with the sea and delivering exceptional natural light on board. The versatile, modular outdoor areas extend onboard liveability and offer multiple layouts tailored to open-air living. The large panoramic flybridge, equipped with sunbathing areas and spaces dedicated to socialising, is one of the project’s most distinctive features.

The same level of comfort and refinement is reflected in the interiors, characterised by airy, light-filled spaces, full-height curtains, high-quality finishes, a generously equipped galley and living areas designed for relaxation and conviviality. The lower-deck layout is also the result of a careful study of real onboard experience, with spacious cabins and solutions aimed at ensuring privacy and wellbeing during extended stays on board.

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, highlighting the high standard achieved by the global yachting industry. “This award represents an important recognition of the work carried out by our team and of Absolute Yachts’ design philosophy – commented the company’s board – Being rewarded by an independent jury after thorough sea trials is a great source of pride”.

With the Navetta 62, Absolute Yachts once again reinforces its role as a benchmark in the motor navetta segment, offering a yacht that successfully blends style, functionality and build quality in a coherent vision focused on long-range cruising.
