2016 ACBS International Boat Show Winners Are Announced.
The International Boat Show at Lake Tahoe marks the second time our new boat judging award structure was used. Gone are the traditional single winners in each category. Instead, the new boat show awards are based on the points scored by each entry. Boats receiving 97 or more points receive a Platinum award; 92 but less than 97 points receive a Gold award, and less than 92 points receive a Silver award.
