Sanlorenzo Unveils the SL86A and SP92 at Genoa International Boat Show 2024: The Latest in Asymmetric and Smart Performance Yachts
16 September 2024 – From September 19 to 24, Sanlorenzo returns to Genoa for the 64th Genoa International Boat Show, the first Italian event of the new yachting season.
Sanlorenzo will be showcasing nine yachts at the show, with a particular focus on two new models: the SL86A from the Asymmetric line and the SP92 from the Smart Performance line.
These two models represent the latest advancements from the Italian yachting brand.
Alongside them, a selection of yachts that have defined the brand’s history will be displayed, showcasing the group’s excellence in comfort, sustainability, performance, livability, and connection with the sea.
SL86A
Developed in collaboration with Zuccon International Project, which designed its exterior lines and interior for the first unit, the SL86A marks a new evolution of the asymmetric concept. This aims to maximize both internal and external spaces, enhancing usability to offer innovative and optimized living solutions while maintaining a dynamic relationship with the surrounding marine landscape. This is achieved while preserving the elegance and distinctive style of Sanlorenzo.
From an exterior design perspective, the true innovation of the yacht lies in the configuration of the stern, where no visible stairs are present. This minimalist design embodies Sanlorenzo’s asymmetrical revolution: concealing the stairs creates a more seamless layout at the stern, where the introduction of a transparent element ensures full connection between those in the cockpit and people swimming at the rear of the boat, enhancing usability.
Another successful design element is minimizing the vertical connections’ impact: eliminating the staircase between the cockpit and the flybridge increases available space, allowing the entire Main Deck to be dedicated to guest enjoyment. This results in a large open-plan layout, where a spacious area at the stern is connected via a portside passage to a unique forward dining area.
This additional space, dedicated to life onboard, is unmatched by similar-sized boats. The layout minimizes visual barriers and highlights the large windows that connect the yacht with the sea from stern to bow.
Finally, the SL86A also features expanded and more usable exterior spaces, including two large sunbathing areas, one at the bow and one integrated into the deckhouse.
SP92
With the SP92, Sanlorenzo reaffirms its commitment to advancing research in the segment of high-performance and sporty boats. Born from the collaboration with Studio Zuccon for the exterior design and architect Piero Lissoni for the interior design, the SP92 successfully brings the typical design of the range to this new entry-level model. It draws inspiration from minimalism and clean lines, further enhancing the sportiness and balance of the yacht while maintaining its unmatched style and elegance.
From the very first glance, the expansive aft area stands out: a beach area of nearly 45 square meters, customizable with a retractable door that conceals the garage. The main deck is even closer to the water, allowing for a deeper synergy with the sea. The large perimeter glass surfaces around the superstructure highlight the elegance of the interiors, expanding their volume and maximizing the connection with the exterior by breaking down visual barriers.
With a completely new approach for a vessel of this kind, the interior spaces are distributed over four levels, featuring solutions that enhance spaciousness and livability while reinforcing the close relationship with the surrounding marine environment.
Lastly, the SP92 combines the characteristics of a high-performance yacht with Sanlorenzo’s commitment to sustainability. From the unique hull geometry, which optimizes the resistance coefficient at commonly used speeds, to the design of the structural elements, the photovoltaic system with highly efficient monocrystalline cells, and the choice of furnishings made from composite materials and aeronautical technologies, every component of the yacht has been designed to minimize consumption and reduce environmental impact. As a result, the SP92 consumes about 12-13% less fuel at cruising speed compared to the same yacht built using conventional production methods and traditional materials.
Other Models at the Genoa International Boat Show 2024
In addition to the new SL86A and SP92, Sanlorenzo is also bringing some of its most iconic yachts to Genoa, which best represent the diverse and innovative ranges the shipyard offers to owners:
- SP110, an innovative open coupé that combines eco-conscious design, comfort, and unparalleled performance, which received the prestigious Compasso d’Oro 2024 award from the ADI – Industrial Design Association for its cutting-edge solutions.
- SL96A and SL120A, embodying the philosophy of asymmetry with their ability to redefine onboard harmony, expanding interior and exterior volumes, offering greater livability and better connection with the sea.
- SD90 and SD118, semi-displacement yacht models that highlight onboard livability through flexible interior spaces and offer extensive navigation range, allowing access to even the most distant destinations with maximum comfort.
- SX88 and SX100, representing the SX line, where Sanlorenzo presents an innovative synthesis between the classic motor yacht with a flying bridge and the explorer type; two examples of a range that has revolutionized the concept of livability at sea.
At the striking Waterfront of Levante, designed by Renzo Piano, Sanlorenzo’s yachts will be alongside those of the group’s other brand, Bluegame, which shares its values of excellence, innovation, and passion.
