This year's RBV has been awarded to Adrian Corkill for his work on the maritime history of the Isle of Man.
The award is the Island's highest cultural honour, and decided by a panel of representatives from organisations such as Culture Vannin and Manx National Heritage.
Adrian's work led to the creation of a database of information on over 2,000 ships wrecked in Manx waters.
He was presented with the medal at the 'All at Sea' exhibition at the House of Manannan.
