Wauquiez 55 2026 European Yacht of the Year

We are very excited to announce that the Wauquiez 55 has won the 2026 European Yacht of the Year Award for the best luxury cruiser. 

This award does not only reward years of hard work for the French shipyard, celebrating its 60^th anniversary in 2025, and historically well-known for its iconic models: Centurion, Pilot Saloon, etc. It also underlines the audacity of the new owner, EXEL Yachting, taking control of the company 4 years ago, with the ambition of pushing the brand forward with a clearly disruptive mindset.

According to jury members, this 55-footer has been particularly remarked for:

• Her incomparable silhouette, her reverse sheerline, raised knuckle, portholes all along the planking. Inside volumes are just a premiere on a yacht of this size.
• Her seaworthiness and aptitude to reach double-digit speeds, thanks to her fantastic hull design and powerful sailplan, yet remaining easy to sail solo or by a short-handed crew, focus on safety being paramount since inception.

First J/36 delivered to Australia

Ensign Yachts are proud to deliver the first J/36 in Australia to its lucky new owner in Melbourne. She is currently undergoing her sea trials, which are showing the performance capabilities of this impressive yacht. We look forward to following along with the adventures of this new J/36!

Ensign's Rhea 730 sold with first Marlin in the bag!

Ensign Yachts is proud to deliver our iconic demonstrator Rhea 730 to famous fisherman Andrew Addison.  Can't wait to see the first fish he lands off his new Rhea!  We kitted the Rhea out with all the latest fishing gear, and he’s already christened her with a 75kg marlin (which was released alive)! It is great to see these fantastic boats being used for their potential in Australia. They are perfect for fishing days out, entertaining with family and friends, or nights on board.
