BOOT 2026

BOOT 2026 is coming to an end – and what remains is deep gratitude.

It’s not just the awards that move us, but above all, the attitude, humanity, and lived responsibility.

We are very grateful for the BOOT Dive Award 2026 and the nomination of Angela Ziltener in the Personality category. We were particularly touched by the winner, Antonio Cressi, who doubled the prize money and generously passed it on to Angela and Dieter Heinz. A powerful symbol of how responsibility can be shared.

Our sincere thanks also go to our long-standing partners Gesellschaft zur Rettung der Delphine e. V. (GRD) and aquatil, as well as all the organizations, dive centers, supporters, friends, and visitors.

The open exchange, the inspiring conversations, and the collaborative solutions give us courage and strength. Thank you for this special evening, the time we spent together – and for your commitment to protecting our oceans.
