We’re excited to announce that Arksen is sponsoring the brand new ‘Yacht of the Year’ category at the Ocean Awards 2021.
The Yacht of the Year Award
The award will acknowledge vessels, their owners and/or crew that have actively helped enhance the health of the ocean. This could be through allowing access for researchers, conservationists and scientists, or through raising awareness of ocean issues, or through hands-on initiatives of their own. The ‘Yacht of the Year’ award is designed to celebrate the people behind the scenes who work to allow vital ocean-saving work to occur. The winner will demonstrate a commitment to ocean conservation throughout their vessel function, and the people who serve on her.
Arksen founder, Jasper Smith, will also be on the judging panel in January next year.
Entry Criteria:
Nominees for this award must be able to demonstrate how their vessel and those on board have provided services to enable work to occur that demonstrably enhances ocean health, either by adapting or by equipping a vessel, which enables valuable conservation work.
Nominees must also provide evidence of the kind of impact the research conducted has had or could have, on ocean preservation.

The Ocean Awards recognises individuals, community groups, organisations and businesses that have made significant contributions to the health of the marine environment.
An initiative very close to the heart of Arksen, we are delighted to be partnering with the sixth annual Ocean Awards and providing the winner of ‘Yacht of the Year’ with a financial donation to help further their ocean conservation efforts.
