This is really big news!
Our Pure 42 has been nominated for European Yacht of the Year 2026, chosen by Europes leading sailing journalists to be part of the fleet of Europes finest yachts.
What an honour! We are stunned, we are thankful, we are so proud!
The European Yacht of the Year competition is run by the 12 biggest and most renown sailing magazines in Europe and their most experienced testers and editors. It’s something like the Oscar awards for the yachting industries.
Amongst the 23 competitors for the 2026 titel are some of the great names of our business, as X-Yachts from Denmark, Saffier from Holland or First, JPK and Boreal from France. Pure, being a brand new company, is very proud to be admitted into this prestigious circle.
The test trials are split between two venues, one in Ijmuiden in late September, the other one in Barcelona end of October. The second one is the one we chose for our Pure 42.
Prizes will be awarded in 4 categories (family cruiser, luxury cruiser, performance cruiser and multihull), the winners will be announced at the flagship night at BOOT Düsseldorf in January 2026.
