The winners of the 2010 ISS (International Superyacht Society) Awards were announced last night at the Design Awards Gala held at the Marriott Harbour Beach Resort in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Celebrating the very finest in naval architecture, design, interiors, engineering and builds in the superyacht industry, this year marked the 20th anniversary of the awards.
