Last week (3 April) saw an unprecedented celebration of classical music and artisan craftsmanship in central London.
Hosted by Sanlorenzo Yachts UK and Howden Private Clients at the Minotti London showroom, the evening brought together a distinguished audience for a rare and extraordinary performance.
A truly priceless musical interlude unfolded as two remarkable Stradivarius violins, in the hands of the world-renowned violinists Tomo Keller and Andrew Bernardi, played together for the first time.
Crafted over three centuries ago by the legendary Italian luthier Antonio Stradivari, these historic instruments – though visually distinct – demonstrated their unparalleled ability to project with power and clarity, commanding attention to be heard above the force of a full orchestra.
Set against Minotti’s exquisitely curated backdrop on Margaret Street, the intimate gathering was immersed in the exceptional tonal nuances and dynamic range that define these rare musical masterpieces.
Nick Hatfield, Managing Director at Sanlorenzo Yachts UK, reflected on the profound connection between Stradivari’s craftsmanship and Sanlorenzo’s legacy of yacht building:
“For over 60 years, Sanlorenzo has exemplified the finest Italian craftsmanship in luxury yacht building. Just as every Sanlorenzo yacht is a singular work of art, with its own story to tell, each Stradivarius violin is uniquely crafted, with a sound and character as distinctive as the instrument itself.”
With only 650 Stradivarius violins believed to exist today, these instruments are among the rarest in the world. Their preservation is paramount, yet their true essence is realised only through performance.
Charlie Jenkins, Head of Asset Finance at SPF Private Clients, Part of Howden, emphasised the delicate balance between preservation and use:
“Instruments of this calibre must not only be safeguarded – they should be played. The relationship between violin and violinist is symbiotic: the more an instrument is played, the more it develops its voice, enriching both its sound and the artist’s interpretation of the music.”
Despite their historical and artistic significance, Stradivarius violins remain financially out of reach for many of the world’s most gifted musicians. It is only through philanthropy and dedicated patronage that these rare instruments continue to grace the global stage – a challenge Howden is committed to addressing.
Jenkins unveiled a vision close to the heart of Howden as the leading insurance broker for fine instruments:
“We understand the profound impact that an instrument can have on a musician’s career. Our vision is to ensure that exceptional violins, like those played by Tomo and Andrew, are brought out of storage and placed in the hands of talented artists. Achieving this goal will require the support of philanthropists and investors, and we are confident that Howden, given our market position, can lead this initiative. Our aim is to ensure these instruments continue to inspire and transform the lives of the finest musicians of their generation.”
The evening at Minotti was more than a performance – it was a testament to the enduring legacy of craftsmanship, and the importance of preserving musical and artistic excellence for generations to come.

Sanlorenzo has finalised its 2024 financials with record-breaking results, confirming significant growth in revenue and profitability.
These impressive numbers were released following its board meeting on 10 March 2025, where the company’s board of directors also outlined the firm’s 2025 guidance, which reflects continued growth despite economic and geopolitical uncertainties.
Key Highlights from 2024 results:
Strong Performance and Future Growth
Sanlorenzo’s 2024 performance was boosted by demand for its latest yacht models and a growing international presence. The Americas region showed a significant rebound, contributing 15.8% of total revenue (up from 11% in 2023), while the Middle East and Africa grew to 13.1% of revenue (up from 9.3%).
New models like the SP92, SL86-Asymmetric, and the SD132 — Sanlorenzo’s first composite yacht over 40-metres — helped drive growth in the yacht division. The superyacht division also saw growth driven by the Steel line, particularly the 50Steel HER (Hidden Engine Room) model. The Bluegame division remained stable despite ‘challenging conditions’ in the sub-24-metre segment.
Healthy Backlog and Confident 2025 Outlook
Sanlorenzo ended the year with an order backlog of €1.02 billion, with 88% of orders coming from final clients. Of this, €623.1 million is scheduled for 2025, while €396.7m relates to subsequent years, providing long-term revenue visibility. The order intake for the fourth quarter of 2024 reached €230.2m, an 11% increase over the same period in 2023.
Looking ahead, Sanlorenzo’s guidance anticipates net revenues of between €960 million and €1.02 billion in new yacht sales in 2025 — a projected increase of around 6%. EBITDA is forecasted to reach between €178 million and €194 million, with EBIT expected to land between €139 million and €149 million.
Commitment to Sustainability and Innovation
In addition to financial performance, Sanlorenzo approved its 2024 Consolidated Sustainability Report, marking its first structured reporting under Italian Legislative Decree No. 125, which transposes the European Union’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) into Italian law.
Massimo Perotti, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented:
“In 2024, we delivered significant strategic milestones, surpassing €100 milion net profit threshold, around four times higher compared to 2019, as proof of the effectiveness of our long-term vision. We proudly confirm the complete realisation of our objectives with record results, the consolidation of our direct distribution network and entry into the sailing yacht segment.
“The Group’s solid financial position alows us to continue investing in growth and consolidating our leadership in the most profitable and resilient market segments. Today’s presentation of the 2025 Guidance, in the current macroeconomic and geopolitical environment, reflects a journey of continued sustainable progress. This trajectory is further strengthened by the evolution of our industrial model, leveraging strategic acquisitions that continue to enhance the appeal of our product range.
“These important milestones further differentiate our unique positioning as a global icon of ‘beauty made-to-measure’, seamlessly combined with cutting-edge technological expertise, within a solid and well-established business model aimed at gradual and sustainable growth over the medium-long term.”

Sanlorenzo has released its preliminary consolidated results for the year ending 31 December 2024, with 2024 Guidance being met at all levels.
Net revenues from the sale of new yachts totalled €930.4m – a 10.7 per cent year-on-year increase. EBITDA rose by 12 per cent to €176.4m, with a margin of 19 per cent on revenues. EBIT increased by 10.6 per cent to €139.3m, with a margin of 15 per cent. The net cash position, adjusted for acquisitions and the share buy-back in the second half of the year, stood at €112.8m.
Order intake in Q4 2024 amounted to €230.2m, compared to €207.8m in Q4 2023, with Sanlorenzo confirming its ability to keep receiving a significant number of orders despite waiting lists extending up to 2028. This is primarily due to the desirability of the product portfolio and brands – complementary and non-overlapping – each exclusively positioned at the top end of their respective market segment.
The results show 88% of the order back log is covered by final clients, with a net value exceeding €1bn. As of 31 December 2024, the net backlog was €1,019.8m, compared to €1,041.7m as of 31 December 2023, with €623.1m scheduled for 2025, and €396.7m for subsequent years.

“In line with our ‘Road to 2030’ strategy, our spirit of innovation continues to permeate every aspect of the Group’s activities, from concept design to cutting-edge technological solutions, guiding a strategic path that reflects the company’s ambitions and vision as a pioneer in sustainable yachting technologies.
“On the commercial side, we are further strengthening our direct presence in key international yachting hubs, ensuring close proximity to our select clientele, strengthening our competitive advantages, and consolidating the pillars of excellence that define the Sanlorenzo experience.
“We look to the future with confidence, focusing on the execution of our projects while leveraging the values that have always distinguished us: desirability, scarcity, and true sustainable luxury, supported by a strong drive for innovation that remains faithful to the brand’s heritage.”
Key events and milestones in 2024
On 1 August 2024, Sanlorenzo signed a binding agreement for the acquisition of 100% of Nautor Swan, including its subsidiaries within the acquisition perimeter (the ‘Nautor Swan Group’). The Nautor Swan Group consists of 13 companies operating in seven countries (Finland, Italy, Spain, Monaco, UK, USA, and Australia) and is primarily engaged in the design, construction, marketing, and refit of luxury sailing yachts under the Swan, Maxi Swan, and ClubSwan brands, as well as motor yachts under the Shadow and Arrow brands.
When it comes to technological innovation, three yachts launched in 2024 stand as concrete examples of Sanlorenzo Group’s innovative spirit, each marking significant milestones: the 50Steel by Sanlorenzo, the world’s first superyacht equipped with a Reformer Fuel Cell system capable of converting green methanol into hydrogen and then into electricity to power all onboard hotellerie services, without the need to store hydrogen on board. The BGH-HSV by Bluegame, a foil-assisted chase boat with exclusively hydrogen-powered, zero-emission propulsion, which supported the American Magic and Orient Express teams during the America’s Cup. The Swan 88 DreamCatcher, which won the Eco Award at the BOAT International Design & Innovation Awards for its advanced diesel-electric hybrid propulsion system.
In terms of partnerships and ongoing projects, in January 2025, Sanlorenzo signed a partnership with MAN for the development of the first bi-fuel propulsion system using green methanol. This system will be installed on the new 50 X-Space, scheduled for delivery in 2027, and will enable a reduction of emissions during navigation by up to 70%.
Also in January 2025, Nautor Swan and American Magic entered a partnership following the recently concluded collaboration between Bluegame and the America’s Cup. This agreement aims to revitalize Nautor Swan in its historic core market – the Americas.
In line with Sanlorenzo’s international positioning as a creator and promoter of the finest expressions of Italian culture, the renovation of Casa Sanlorenzo in Venice is nearing completion, with its inauguration scheduled for summer 2025. The venue will host Sanlorenzo Arts Venice, a hybrid space dedicated to culture and the arts, with the initiative aiming to contribute to a global cultural movement that fosters positive change in society for a more sustainable future.

Innovative design, continuous development and a strategy firmly grounded in sustainability has seen Bluegame Yachts experience exponential growth over the last five years. Into this mix, throw a couple of auspicious collaborations and you’ve a game-changing recipe for success.
Founded in 2004 by ex-Olympic sailor and architect, Luca Santella, Bluegame has successfully positioned itself as a pioneer in the yachting industry, focusing on innovation, sustainability, and the creation of functional and efficient yachts that defy traditional categorisation.
In 2018, Bluegame joined the Sanlorenzo Group, which significantly enhanced its development opportunities and saw revenues multiply 16 times over five years. This impressive expansion is reflected in a strong order book as we move into 2025 and an increasing demand for the innovative Bluegame yachts in the UK market.
“Bluegame is a relatively new yacht brand in comparison to some of the British brands, but it has already made its mark on the UK market,” says Nick Hatfield, Managing Director at Sanlorenzo Yachts UK which represents the Bluegame brand in the UK and Ireland.
“The brand is offering a different approach to yachting and it’s really shaking things up in terms of design. It’s disruptive, challenging traditional layouts to provide multi-use onboard spaces with more direct access, both physically and visually, to the sea.
“These design features, coupled with robust engineering and a very high level of standard specification, are proving extremely popular with UK customers – and the exponential growth the brand has seen globally looks set to continue in the UK.”
Supporting Luca Santella’s original goal of creating practical, seaworthy yachts that provide an authentic connection to the sea, Bluegame currently offers three distinct yacht ranges that combine sophisticated design, versatility and luxury – bridging the gap between the traditional categories of flybridge and sports cruisers, trawler yachts, and open boats.
Exemplifying this is the highly publicised Bluegame BGM75 which launched at the Cannes Yachting Festival in 2023. The first multihull from the Italian shipyard, the BGM75 is designed to maintain the aesthetic of a monohull with the benefits of a catamaran, and offers increased stability, large volumes and reduced fuel consumption – with the yacht claiming to consume 30 per cent less fuel than a 90-foot monohull of a similar volume.
But it’s the BGX range that’s proving to be most popular in the UK, and specifically the BGX63.
Hatfield explains: “The BGX range embodies Luca Santella’s vision of building a yacht that challenges the perceived norms of motor yacht design by blending an adventurous explorer yacht feel with uncompromising quality, luxury and functionality.
“The BGX63, in particular, has been exceptionally well received. Of all the Bluegame yachts ordered to date by UK clients, the BGX63 accounts for 40 per cent of these. With a vast beach club, an open plan upper cockpit and a clever, owner-centric layout that places the master cabin at the centre of the yacht – wherever you are onboard, you’re only a few steps from the water.
“This innovative design, coupled with Bluegame’s capacity to offer personalised interiors, is the point of difference that UK owners have been waiting for, whether they use it as a day boat while holidaying aboard or as a chase boat for a larger superyacht.”
Bluegame’s continued commitment to innovation is evidenced by its development of the BGH hydrogen-powered chase boat. Partnering with NatPower-H and leveraging its expertise in hydrogen-powered propulsion systems, Bluegame’s BGH was designed to comply with the stringent demands of the America’s Cup protocol.
And achieving speeds of up to 50 knots with zero emissions during the event, the BGH not only showcases Bluegame’s dedication to more eco-friendly yachting but also its ability to combine cutting-edge design with robust performance under demanding conditions.
Inspired by, and building on, the technology developed for the America’s Cup, Bluegame continues to innovate with the next generation of foiling cruisers. Later this year will see the launch of the BGF45, the first in Bluegame’s new BGF range of foil assisted high-speed catamarans. This new model uses its single fixed foil to improve performance by rising above the chop to reduce drag – this also affords those onboard a more comfortable ride as they ‘skim’ above the waves.
Supporting parent company Sanlorenzo’s drive towards carbon neutrality in yachting, other significant partnerships include Siemens Energy as Bluegame champions the development of sustainable energy solutions for yachts – including the use of hydrogen, and methanol, fuel cell systems to generate electricity onboard.
These notable collaborations reflect Bluegame’s strategic approach to combining design excellence, environmental responsibility, and industry leadership. And with brand recognition enhanced through its association with high-profile events and industry firsts, this strategy looks set to meet the demands of the evermore eco-conscious consumer and further accelerate the brand’s growth, both in the UK and worldwide.
