What

The Best of Boats Award is the biggest award for motorboats in Europe, assuming the number of participating countries, jury members and media. As the only motorboat award worldwide, the BOB Award is at home in all important water-sports regions. The BOB award is the internationally respected seal of quality for the very best of leisure boating.

Who

Who

The boat journalists who found the Best of Boats Award have three things in common: Profound experience as boat testers, a strong interest in the practical needs of active boaters and the non-competitive friendship as boat professionals from all over Europe and the USA.

How

How

Hundreds of new boats from the leading boat-building countries are tested each year by the BOB jury members in confirmed full-scale boat tests. User-oriented categories put the boater’s perspective in focus. The award ceremony is hosted since 2014 by the Boat & Fun Berlin.
