Hurun Report joined the key organisers of the China (Shanghai) International Boat Show 2010 to announce the winners of the eagerly anticipated 2010 Asian Marine and Boating Awards today. The awards, which recognise both international and domestic yachting brands, are designed to stimulate the development of China's developing yachting industry.

'There is huge potential for the yachting industry in China. At present, there are 875,000 millionaires in China and according to our 2010 Best of the Best Survey, almost half of them dream of buying a boat' said Hurun Report founder Rupert Hoogewerf.

As yachts surge in popularity amongst wealthy Chinese, the Hurun Top 10 Marinas with Greatest Potential Awards recognise the Chinese Marinas with the most potential to develop into truly world-class facilities. They form part of the Asian Maritime and Boating Awards, which single out a range of domestic and international industry leaders for recognition.

Hurun Report would like to thank the CIBS organisers, as well as the Shanghai Association of Shipbuilding Industry, China Boat Industry & Trade Association and Shanghai UBM Sinoexpo International Exhibition Co. Ltd for making these awards possible.
