Superyacht UK is running the 2024 edition of its highly successful Superyacht UK Young Designer Competition this year at the Southampton International Boat Show from 16-18 September 2024. This prestigious event offers a unique platform for young designers from universities nationwide to showcase their creativity and innovation in yacht design.

This year’s competition introduces two entry categories: category 1 for second and third-year students and category 2 for master’s students. A total of 12 places are available, and participants are required to hand-draw their designs to specific briefs during the two-day event.

Winners and runners-up in each category can look forward to great prizes, with further details to be announced.
