- innovative maritime vessel designs;
- innovative components, machinery or systems, making vessels better performing, more sustainable, or better value to the owner;
- innovative development or application of materials or technologies, improving vessel design, building, or operations; or
- innovations that make vessels or their systems more cost effective to build or operate.
