Italian shipyard Sanlorenzo will be making its show debut at this year’s British Motor Yacht Show, 16-19 May 2024.
Throughout the event hosted in Swanwick Marina, Southampton, the expert team at Sanlorenzo Yachts UK with be presenting a beautifully specified Sanlorenzo SL90A which, at 28-metres, will also be the largest yacht on display at the four-day boat show.
“We’re delighted to be bringing one of our stunning Sanlorenzo yachts to the British Motor Yacht Show for the first time,” says Nick Hatfield, Sales Manager at Sanlorenzo Yachts UK.
“We’re inviting prospective Sanlorenzo owners, yachting enthusiasts, and other interested parties onboard for an exclusive tour of this magnificent example of what the shipyard can build.
“It’s a fantastic opportunity to experience the true meaning of customisation and understand Sanlorenzo’s ethos of innovative design, tailored to the requirements and desires of each individual owner.”
Designed by Bernado Zuccon, this elegant SL90A has been exquisitely finished with a light and modern interior using different wood, marble, and fabric textures, providing a refined and dignified decor.
The A in SL90A stands Asymmetric, a bold and innovative internal formation which see the yacht’s port side deck moved up a level to increase the yacht’s interior volume. Expanding the main deck saloon by 10-15 per cent, the tangible connection with the sea through the floor to ceiling windows has been amplified.
Four extremely well-appointed staterooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom, provide ample accommodation for up to eight guests in comfort and style, making the yacht an ideal platform for spending time with the family or entertaining friends.
Built by Sanlorenzo Yacht at its Ameglia base on the Ligurian coast of Italy, this class leading yacht offers a timeless aesthetic, breaking the mould compared to others in her class, while remaining under the important 24-metre hull length.
Also on display will be the Bluegame BG42. Defying convention, this rebellious 13-metre motor yacht harmoniously blends the agility of a motorboat, the comfort of a day cruiser, with the versatility of a chase boat.
The spacious interior boasts a luxurious full-beam master cabin with a king-size bed and a bathroom reminiscent of a 60-footer.

From 16 to 28 April, the eighteenth-century courtyard of the University of Milan will be the setting for an installation symbolising Sanlorenzo’s commitment to marine sustainability, featuring the revolutionary BGH-HSV (Hydrogen Support Vessel) project by Bluegame.
The Italian shipyard brings a unique experience to Milan Design Week 2024 as part of the Interni Cross Vision exhibition-event with its installation ‘Sustainable Underwater Balance’ (SUB). Placed in the evocative courtyard of the University of Milan’s eighteenth-century building, ‘SUB’ is a creation of architect Piero Lissoni, Sanlorenzo’s Art Director since 2018.
‘SUB’ invites the audience to explore the underwater world as a symbol of pristine purity and commitment to ocean conservation, enabling a new perspective: the sea seen from within the sea.
The installation is designed to transport visitors to an underwater universe where sunlight dances through the water, creating a magical interplay of light and shadow. In this surreal setting, marine creatures in motion can be admired, symbolising a respectful and sustainable marine ecosystem.
At the heart of the installation lies one of the Sanlorenzo’s latest creations, the revolutionary BGH-HSV (Hydrogen Support Vessel) model by Bluegame, a Sanlorenzo brand.
It represents a highly complex technical and design challenge: a multihull vessel of just 10 metres, capable of reaching speeds of 50 knots and covering a range of 180 miles, with hydrogen-powered foils, embodying the pinnacle of sustainability to date.
The digital reconstruction of BGH during navigation moments, with an underwater perspective, illustrates Sanlorenzo’s commitment to sustainability and marine environment protection.
This underwater world will provide a visual and conceptual framework for reflecting on our relationship with the environment and the importance of adopting sustainable practices for its preservation. Through the use of digital technologies and representation of underwater scenarios, the installation celebrates the innovation and sustainability of Sanlorenzo’s projects, where the coexistence among animals, humans, and vessels is not only possible but can be fluid, peaceful, and devoid of danger.
“This year, together with Sanlorenzo, we brought a slice of the sea to the University,” says Piero Lissoni.
“It’s as if we sliced and placed a block of ocean with everything inside it: marine creatures, waves, swimmers. Amidst this virtual sea, the silhouette of the new Bluegame vessel can be seen. People will be able to walk inside the parallelepiped with walls made of virtual water and not get wet at all.”
Carla Demaria, CEO of Bluegame, comments: “Our vision at Bluegame has always been to combine technological excellence with a deep respect for the marine environment. The BGH-HSV project represents a significant step towards realising this vision.
“We are excited to present to the world this tangible testament to our commitment to maritime sustainability. The use of hydrogen as a propulsion system, an absolute novelty in recreational boating, is a tangible sign of our commitment to reducing emissions and adopting innovative solutions for a more sustainable future”.
The ‘SUB’ installation will be open to the public in the courtyard of the University of Milan’s eighteenth-century building until the 28 April, 2024.
Following the conclusion of its exclusive two-week immersive experience at St Katharine Docks, London, Sanlorenzo Yachts UK is delighted with the reception that the Italian yacht brand has received in the capital.
“Our aim was to increase the exposure of the Sanlorenzo brand in the UK and expand its reach beyond the boating community,” says Nick Hatfield, Sales Manager at Sanlorenzo Yachts UK.
“We’re thrilled with how our immersive experience has been received, with attendees including current clients, prospective owners, brokers and members of the marine and luxury lifestyle press.
“The series of social and networking events we’ve hosted with partners from across the finance and aviation sectors, including Coutts, Close Brothers, Investec and Jetfly, has boosted the overall reach so that Sanlorenzo is now firmly on the map in the UK across both the yachting and UHNW communities.”
Central to the immersive experience was the opportunity to get onboard and explore a brand new 28-metre Sanlorenzo SL90A, a yacht that personifies style and elegance, showcasing the Italian shipyards incredible design innovation and artisan craftmanship.
“The SL90A is a stunning example of what we can build together,” continues Nick. “To truly understand the almost limitless customisation capabilities and how the shipyard creates made to measure yachts that reflect the individual personalities of their owners you need to physically experience one.
“Our event has allowed us to take people around a yacht that embodies the shipyards values and educate them on the difference between being a yacht owner and being an owner of a Sanlorenzo. It’s also allowed us to speak to people who may not have previously considered a yacht, and introduce them to the possibility of creating their own one-of-a-kind floating home from home.
“Through our immersive event, we’ve achieved our primary objective of increasing brand awareness of this remarkable brand in the UK, as well as highlighting how we make the brand more easily accessible, working closely with our customers throughout the entire process of bringing to life their dream yacht, encompassing their lifestyle and entertainment requirements.”
Designed by renowned naval architect Bernado Zuccon and built by Sanlorenzo Yacht at its Ameglia base on the Ligurian coast of Italy, the SL90A is available now, in time for the Mediterranean season.
This beautifully specified yacht is currently on its way from London to Sanlorenzo Yachts UK’s base on the River Hamble at Swanwick, Southampton, where it can be viewed by appointment.

Celebrating its 40th Anniversary this year, the Palma International Boat Show will be taking place 25 – 28 April 2024 in Palma’s Moll Vell marina.
As one of the largest on-water boat shows in Europe with over 600 yachts in display from 270 plus exhibitors, the show is well worth the short flight to Mallorca.
From this unique setting at the foot of a cathedral, the expert team from Sanlorenzo Yachts UK will be presenting two exquisite but distinct yachts from Sanlorenzo, and two game changing craft from Bluegame, a brand of Sanlorenzo.
Sanlorenzo SP110
The first model in Sanlorenzo’s Smart Performance (SP) line, the SP110 breaks the mould, offering top performance while ensuring maximum comfort at all speeds.
Accommodating up to eight guests, and five crew, in style and dynamic refinement, this sporty yacht has a cruising speed of 35 knots (max. 40 knots) driven by an extremely efficient waterjet propulsion system.
Large sliding doors in the main saloon afford views from the passerelle straight into the yacht’s cavernous interior with its double-height loft style configuration.
The intentionally simple exterior lines by naval architect Bernado Zuccon, chic Lissoni & Partners interiors and eco-conscious power package make the SP110 a standout in the sports yacht market.
Sanlorenzo SD96
Built over three decks, the SD96 is one of the most popular models from Sanlorenzo’s semi-displacement (SD) series, which draws design inspiration from the trans-Atlantic liners of the 1930s, combining luxury with functionality.
With carefully considered proportions and an excellent balance of design and volume, the SD96 is as light and manageable as a two-deck yacht, while accommodating up to ten guests and five crew in comfort and style, without compromising on performance at sea.
An advanced hull design, twin MAN 8V 1300HP engines, and cutting-edge technology contribute to smooth, efficient cruising and exceptional manoeuvrability, allowing owners to explore on the water with confidence.
Bluegame BGX63
A distinctive design, combined with cutting edge technology and countless innovations, the Bluegame BGX63 reinvents the conventional layout of a yacht of this size.
By moving the saloon to the same level as the sea, it affords an uncompromising link to the water while raising the aft cockpit to provide more privacy, and a better connection to the galley and deckhouse dining area.
Bluegame BG54
Completely redesigned to benefit from the most up-to-date technology, this Bluegame BG54 is defined by class leading ergonomics and functionality.
The large stern space and 360° cockpit offer breath taking views which can be enjoyed from the comfortable seating surrounding the extendable table. Designed for safe navigation in all weather conditions, the wheelhouse remains unsurpassed for maximum visibility with the distinctive reverse windshield.

By harnessing solar energy, we contribute to lowering greenhouse gas emissions and promoting sustainable energy supply.
“For Sanlorenzo, this is a strategic investment aligning with the company’s social and environmental responsibility goals, demonstrating a long-term vision oriented towards sustainability.”
Sanlorenzo’s business philosophy and future vision of sustainable development are shared by Axpo and form the basis of this successful partnership. “Excellence and sustainability are principles that can help businesses appropriately address the challenges of the ecological transition,” comments Marco Garbero, General Manager of Axpo Energy Solutions Italia.
“We believe that the collaboration with Sanlorenzo is a tangible manifestation of this vision, showcasing the potential of the green economy as an opportunity to generate unprecedented synergies between companies in different sectors.

Sanlorenzo and leading power solutions provider have announced a partnership to bring Volvo Penta’s IPS Professional Platform to two new Sanlorenzo yachts, the SX120 and the SX132.
Volvo Penta IPS Professional Platform is a first in the marine industry and an example of cutting-edge engineering, integrating seamlessly into Sanlorenzo’s visionary yacht design. The platform is the latest evolution in Volvo Penta’s fully integrated experience, from helm to propellers. Set up for the combined use of energy sources, from combustion engines using renewable fuels to fully electric or hybrid solutions, it ensures greater efficiency by optimising energy use in real time based on cruising needs.
The SX120 and the SX132 are expected to launch in 2025 and 2027 respectively and will be the first superyachts installed with the IPS Professional Platform.
“When adopting new solutions into superyachts, we must always consider the experience of owners and the captain,” says Johan Inden, President of Volvo Penta Marine. “The IPS Professional Platform not only delivers new levels of efficiency and flexibility but also elevates the yachting experience through the fully integrated helm-to-propeller platform. Intelligent features combined with the platform’s unique design provide additional comfort and peace of mind. Our collaboration with Sanlorenzo marks a new journey towards decarbonisation in the yachting sector. We’re excited to see the launch of the first IPS Professional Platform-equipped superyacht in 2025.”
Driving Industry Innovation and Transformation
This latest collaboration between Sanlorenzo and Volvo Penta symbolises an evolution in the companies’ ongoing journey together to drive transformation across the marine industry. The two companies will deliver a seamless onboard experience through increased precision and quieter operation. The unique and compact design of the IPS Professional platform frees up valuable onboard space and reduces perceived noise by up to 50%.

Both Sanlorenzo and Volvo Penta are committed to accelerating sustainability goals and the decarbonisation of the marine industry, with the companies are dedicated to exploring multiple solutions and paths including renewable fuels, hybrid and electric technology, fuel cells, and efficiency-driven innovations in yacht and propulsion design. The introduction of the IPS Professional Platform into Sanlorenzo’s tailor-made yachts is one of the latest efforts by Volvo Penta to integrate sustainability into a seamless experience.
Consistent with the course mapped out in its ‘Road to 2030’ strategy, Sanlorenzo has set the goal of launching the first 50 Steel equipped with a modular Reformer Fuel Cell system, capable of transforming green methanol into hydrogen and then into electricity to power all hotellerie equipment, and eventually recharge batteries, without the hydrogen being stored on board. By the end of the decade, Sanlorenzo aims to launch the first superyacht powered solely by green methanol.
Massimo Perotti, Executive Chairman of Sanlorenzo, comments: “The wishes of the customer have always been a fundamental part of Sanlorenzo’s philosophy. We begin at the intersection of technology and sustainability, combining the latest industry innovations with custom features and design that reflect the customer’s individual style. As the marine industry moves toward decarbonisation, we continue to pursue a premier experience that adheres to our vision of a sustainable future. Sanlorenzo is proud to produce the first custom yachts equipped with the all-new IPS Professional Platform and contribute to the journey of decarbonising the marine industry.”
