   The expert panel consists of editors-in-chief of Europe's top seven motorboat magazines - Boote (Germany) , Barche a Motore (Italy), Båtliv (Norway), Neptune (France), Marina CH (Switzerland), Yachtrevue (Austria) and Náutica & Yates (Spain). The jury nominated 25 new boats in five length classes for powerboats: up to 25 feet, up to 35 feet, up to 45 feet, over 45 feet and the Trawler class, where length is of no importance. Being nominated alone means that yacht is one of the most promising new innovations for the upcoming water sports season 2015. All of the 25 boats that were nominated have undergone extensive tests that take into account criterias as design, handling, safety on board, value for money and many more. The hotly contested prizes are traditionally awarded at the FLAGSHIP NIGHT, the traditional meeting of the industry hosted by Delius Klasing Verlag and boot Düsseldorf on the first weekend of the show - 17th to 18th January 2015.
