 | | In its twelfth year, the Southam Awards are named in honor of John Southam, former publisher of Cruising World and Sailing World magazines, who played a significant role in the growth of Sail America, the U.S. industry trade association. |
 | | In addition to the $5000 grand prize – the largest single media prize for journalists covering sailing outside the industry – the judges selected seven additional $1000 category winners, also the highest in competition history, for a total of $12,000 in cash prizes. |
 | | As an option, Southam judges may award special category recognition for sailing coverage that is adventure-lifestyle oriented. |
