Calling all yacht crew content creators! We invite you to showcase your creative talent by capturing the sights and experiences you encounter while sailing the world's oceans.
The theme for 2023 is VIEW FROM THE DECK. Our goal this year is to celebrate the beauty and wonder that can be witnessed from the deck of a yacht, while also highlighting the importance of sustainability and our collective responsibility to protect the marine world we all love.

THE COMPETITION
What is it that makes your time at sea unforgettable? The jaw-dropping landscapes, sky-stained sunsets, wildlife encounters, camaraderie with your fellow crew... You have a unique perspective, and we want to see it.
Your imagery - moving or still - should capture the moment from your vantage point on deck, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in the magic of the maritime world.

SUSTAINABILITY
Whatever your chosen VIEW FROM THE DECK, we want to highlight the impact of responsible and sustainable practices within the yachting industry. We encourage you to include elements that illustrate the beauty and fragility of the marine environment. You have a unique opportunity - no one else sees the oceans the way you do.
