The 24 best photographs, chosen by the public, will be printed and displayed during the fifth World Yacht Racing Forum from 11-12 December in Gothenburg, Sweden. Delegates from the Forum will then select the five photographs they consider as 2012’s best yacht racing image.

A professional and independent jury, made of personalities from the world of international yacht racing, including professional photographers and yacht racers, will then select the Yacht Racing Image of the Year 2012.

The winning photograph, and its author, will be celebrated during the World Yacht Racing Forum.
