The contestants in the category up to 20 m for the 2020 European Powerboat Award are set:
Azimut Atlantis 45 ● DutchCraft DC56 Cabin ● Palm Beach GT 50 ● Solaris Power 48 Open ● Van der Valk Beach Club 600
In the biggest boat class, considerations like “life on the water”, or the opportunity to spend multiple weeks traveling on board with several people, are taking into account. Once again the arrangements of space and the distribution of rooms on the different decks, together with the performance of the boat, are playing a huge role in this category.
The announcement of this year’s winners, will take place during the Flagship-Night on the first evening of the Boot Düsseldorf (18.-26.01.2020).

Beautiful exterior lines and contemporary interior finishes deliver timeless appeal. Like all Palm Beach models, a hyper-focus on lightweight, strong construction helps to ensure the GT’s efficiency.
