Recognised for its intelligent design and exceptional seagoing capability, the Bluegame BG42 has been officially inducted into the YachtBuyer Hall of Fame. The announcement followed the presentation of the YachtBuyer 5 Star Trophy to Luca Santella, Head of Product Strategy at Bluegame Yachts, during the 2025 Cannes Yachting Festival.
As one of the first models to receive this prestigious accolade, the BG42 joins an elite group of yachts distinguished for delivering uncompromising excellence in real-world conditions.
Over the past four years, the YachtBuyer review team has evaluated more than 260 boats, from 10-metre sportsboats to 60-metre superyachts. Each review includes rigorous hands-on sea trials (for owner-operated vessels under 24 metres), supported by detailed scoring across six core categories:
Fewer than nine percent of all tested models – just 26 boats – have achieved a flawless 5-star rating against this demanding framework. The Bluegame BG42 now stands proudly among them, with a dedicated Hall of Fame profile on YachtBuyer.com featuring its full written review, comprehensive video tour, and in-depth sea trial.
A defining characteristic of the YachtBuyer 5 Star Trophy is its complete independence. The programme is entirely self-funded, and YachtBuyer does not accept advertising, sponsorships, or entry fees from shipyards. Each review and sea trial is financed and conducted by the YachtBuyer team, ensuring that the recognition awarded is based entirely on merit and free from commercial influence.
“The YachtBuyer 5 Star Trophy is not about hype or politics; it’s about celebrating genuine excellence,” said Jack Haines, Reviews Director at YachtBuyer. “Every boat in the Hall of Fame has proven itself against the toughest standards in the business. For the builders, designers, and naval architects involved, it’s an achievement to be immensely proud of.”
With its induction into the YachtBuyer Hall of Fame, the Bluegame BG42 reinforces its position as a standout in its class – an innovative, agile, and beautifully engineered yacht that sets a benchmark for performance and design.
