The Italian Sea Group achieved a triple victory at the 17th edition of The International Yacht & Aviation Awards 2026, promoted by Design et Al, to celebrate global excellence in style and architecture in the Yachting, Private Aviation, and Hospitality sectors.

The ceremony took place on May 29th in the evocative setting of the Scuola Grande della Misericordia in Venice, an exceptional location that hosted leading figures in international design.

In this context, The Italian Sea Group received three prestigious awards:

• M/Y ADMIRAL | GIORGIO ARMANI: winner of the Master Cabin Award for the owner’s suite with its extraordinary stylistic coherence, in which the aesthetic language of Giorgio Armani meets the design and construction culture of Admiral;

• M/Y ADMIRAL RAJA²: Awarded in the Best Motor Yacht Over 40 Meters category, developed and coordinated by Admiral Centro Stile, the project expresses the shipyard’s creative vision, expertise, and full construction capability;

• S/Y PERINI NAVI KATANA: undisputed winner in the Best Sailing Yacht category, confirming Perini Navi’s prestige in the large sailing yacht segment.

“The awards received in such a high-profile international context highlight the true essence of The Italian Sea Group: a group capable of mastering diverse aesthetics, from contemporary motor yachts to signature sailing yachts, bringing them together under the same discipline of design, materials, and execution.”

Gianmaria Costantino, Chief Commercial Officer of The Italian Sea Group.

M/Y ADMIRAL | GIORGIO ARMANI, M/Y ADMIRAL RAJA², and S/Y PERINI NAVI KATANA express three distinct registers of the same construction culture: the rarefied and iconic elegance of the owner’s suite designed by Giorgio Armani; the sculptural and contemporary strength of a project entirely developed by Admiral Centro Stile; and the sailing nobility of Perini Navi, where tradition and technology find an extraordinary synthesis. This plurality of codes represents the Group’s distinctive feature: the ability to create yachts profoundly different in vocation, architecture, and aesthetic sensibility.
