Sanlorenzo: Four prestigious awards crown the success of the group

Massimo Perotti receives the ‘Premio Leonardo Qualità Italia 2023’ Award, the ‘Lifetime Achievement Award’ at the International Boat Builders in Amsterdam. The shipyard is also celebrated at Ambrosetti’s WPP Forum and at the Italy Informa Awards for the boating industry.

Sanlorenzo, world leader in luxury yachting, has achieved four prestigious accolades, crowning the company’s success.

In Rome, on November 17 at the Sala della Regina in Palazzo Montecitorio, the Premio Leonardo Qualità Italia 2023 Awards took place, promoted by the Leonardo Quality Committee, which recognize quality, innovation and export vocation of companies representing Made in Italy excellence in different industrial sectors. Sanlorenzo, in the person of his Executive Chairman Massimo Perotti, has been awarded as a leading global company in the field of luxury boating. The ceremony was attended by the President of the Committee Leonardo Luisa Todini, the President of the ICE Agency Matteo Zoppas, the Vice President of Confindustria Barbara Beltrame Giacomello, Minister of Enterprises and Made in Italy, Adolfo Urso, and Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, Antonio Tajani.

On the evening of Thursday, November 16, while the yachting industry gathered at the National Maritime Museum in Amsterdam to celebrate the best in boating at the 9th Boat Builder Awards for Business Achievement, Massimo Perotti has been awarded with the Lifetime Achievement Award. The event, organized by IBI – International Boat Industry, the world’s leading information and market intelligence platform in the nautical field. In the motivations, after mentioning that the Executive Chairman of Sanlorenzo is the youngest entrepreneur to have received this award, the jury emphasized that Massimo Perotti has made an important contribution not only to the companies he led, but also to the whole nautical industry. Today he continues to lead the development of Sanlorenzo’s innovative products, and the judges were unanimous in their decision to name him the winner of this year’s Lifetime Achievement Award, joining the roll call of the major players in the industry in the Boat Builder Awards. The jury also wanted to mention that “under his management, Sanlorenzo has increased turnover from 42 million euros in 2004 to more than 740 million in 2022, placing it today among the world’s leading builders of motor yachts and superyachts.”

On the day of November 17, two other important recognitions. In Milan, General Manager Ferruccio Rossi represented the luxury Maison at the WPP Ambrosetti Forum where Sanlorenzo was celebrated among the 10 companies operating in Italy that have distinguished themselves for their economic results, capacity for innovation, attentive and participatory communication with stakeholders, attention to the territories in which they operate, and investments and projects with a high social impact. In the evening in Rome at a ceremony at the Luiss Campus, Massimo Perotti will receive the Italia Informa Award, a coveted recognition of Italian excellence, and of entrepreneurial personalities who share the ambition to emerge in a very complex economic and international scenario. Opening the awards ceremony, now in its sixth edition, will be Luiss General Director Giovanni Lo Storto.

Massimo Perotti, Executive Chairman of Sanlorenzo, said:

I feel deeply honored by these prestigious awards, that, in addition to a singular contemporaneity, come after the presentation, a few days ago, of the economic results for the first nine months of 2023, with numbers that fully confirmed the strength of the Sanlorenzo brand and its business model proper of the very high-end luxury Maisons. However, these awards, each with their own characteristics, go beyond the mere economic dimension. The Leonardo Committee Award, with 30 years of history, is one of the most important and well-known awards of Made in Italy business excellence. IBI’s award is given in an arena that represents the best of world boating. Ambrosetti’s selection in a cluster of successful companies celebrates Made in Italy in such a prestigious occasion as the WPP Forum, and Italia Informa’s award is characterized by the idea of rewarding the “best,” talent, courage, and the ability to be “visionary.” I believe that all the different motivations for the awards brought together truly represent a crowning achievement for the success of our company and our business model, which is today more than ever focused on integrating ESG criteria into strategic decisions and manifesting a tangible dedication to social and environmental responsibility. Success, I want to emphasize, to which the entire great team of Sanlorenzo employees and collaborators contributed, to whom my sincerest gratitude goes.

Sanlorenzo Achieves €626 Million in Revenue for Q3 2023

Fuelled by the Success of New Models

According to its recent financial report, Sanlorenzo has experienced a notable surge in new yacht sales. Comparing the current period with the same timeframe last year, sales have increased by 15% to reach €626 million.

The Yacht Division stands out as the highest revenue generator, contributing a total of €387.5 million in the initial nine months of the year, with substantial growth in the SP line and robust demand for Sanlorenzo’s asymmetric SL models. The Superyacht Division is also flourishing, with a revenue of €171.6 million, marking a 24% increase compared to the corresponding period in 2022. The results highlight the European region as the Group’s top-performing market segment, contributing just under 70% of the total revenue for the period.

Sanlorenzo’s Bluegame brand also experienced a remarkable 28.3% growth throughout 2023, fuelled by the initial success of the BGM75 luxury catamaran launched earlier this year at the Cannes Yachting Festival.

As of September 2023, Sanlorenzo’s order book boasts a total value of €1.7 billion, driven by an order intake of €604.5 million over the preceding nine months. As a result, the brand has 35 projects in progress, including four new SX100 yachts, with the first delivery anticipated for 2024. Furthermore, the Italian shipyard allocated approximately €22 million to enhance production capacity and develop new models during the first three quarters of 2023.

CEO Massimo Perotti expressed satisfaction with the board of directors’ approval of the excellent results, emphasising the robustness of the Sanlorenzo brand and its distinctive high-end luxury business model. Perotti stated that this approach enables sustainable growth even in these challenging macroeconomic and geopolitical times.

Sanlorenzo Receives Certification from Lloyd’s Register for Fuel Cell System

During the recent Monaco Yacht Show, Lloyd’s Register granted Sanlorenzo an approval certification for their Fuel Cell system and Type C containment tank, which were co-designed by the shipyard in partnership with Siemens Energy. Notably, Lloyd’s Register played a crucial role in endorsing Sanlorenzo’s project, and the certification unequivocally confirms that the methanol fuel cell system complies with globally recognised environmental standards, enhancing its credibility in the market.

“The collaboration with Sanlorenzo on this innovative project affirms LR’s role as a trusted advisor to our clients and demonstrates our support for early developers of solutions to reduce carbon emissions in the yachting industry. We are delighted to give Sanlorenzo this approval, which confirms that their methanol fuel cell system meets the required safety standards.”

Paolo Izzo, LR Sales & Marketing Manager for Italy, Monaco and Malta

This innovative solution, a pioneering first, is set to debut on the new 50Steel line of Sanlorenzo superyachts, with the first unit scheduled for delivery in the summer of 2024. The methanol fuel cell system represents a revolutionary advancement, allowing the vessel to generate electricity for on-board hospitality services while keeping the engines and generators idle. This significantly extends the time a yacht can remain anchored and manoeuvre without using fuel.

“Sanlorenzo is a trailblazer on the path to carbon neutrality in the yachting world: through the relentless work of our R&D department, we continue to take revolutionary steps in introducing technological systems aimed at reducing the environmental impact of yachts. We are proud to receive this approval from Lloyd’s Register, as we work together to pioneer decarbonisation pathways for the yachting industry.”

Massimo Perotti, Executive Chairman and CEO of Sanlorenzo

This marks a significant milestone for Sanlorenzo and further distinguishes the brand from other superyacht shipyards on the market. With responsible development at its core, Sanlorenzo remains dedicated to exploring and crafting technological and technical solutions aimed at minimising impact on the marine ecosystem.

New Build Sanlorenzo SL96A

In the summer of 2022, we began working on a client’s new build Sanlorenzo SL96A. Sanlorenzo’s approach is entirely bespoke, with the only limitation being the hull shape and exterior profile. So, the vessel is entirely customised to the owner’s wishes, tastes and lifestyle.

Even by the time of signing of the contract, the owner had itemised 411 custom modifications outside the standard factory options list and, to date, this number has now broken the 500 barrier. Unlike any competitor brand, the shipyard have taken this totally in their stride.

Sanlorenzo UK has been liaising closely with Sanlorenzo’s Interior Design Department to support our client at every step of the selection process, helping them choose all furnishing details, inclusive of furniture and supplies.

The build is happening at Sanlorenzo’s shipyard in Ameglia, just south of La Spezia, Italy, with a launch scheduled for April 2024.
Here we take a look at some of the key modifications and how the build is progressing.

Sanlorenzo Design Philosophy

For over 60 years, Sanlorenzo has crafted tailor-made motor yachts respecting the style and needs of their owners. Each yacht is the product of a 5-stage customisation process, listening to the customer’s needs.

Sanlorenzo hires leading international designers to understand and illustrate how the customer’s style may look inside the boat, developing individual interior design concepts. We then work together with our clients to create optimal, tailor-made solutions.

Owning a Sanlorenzo also means having the opportunity to choose the materials involved in the build. This choice is not limited to the cladding and coverings but extends to luxury items such as marble and wood flooring. Boat owners can choose each and every detail to best express their personality.

Custom Furnishings

When it comes to furnishings, Sanlorenzo provides customers with a blank canvas. Instead of being tied to the builder’s specifications, clients have the freedom to choose unique freestanding pieces of furniture from renowned Italian brands like Minotti, Natuzzi, Frag, B+B, and more. Modifications can also be made to suit personal tastes and complement the interior style. In this instance, our client has chosen luxurious Minotti “Connery” sofas, a chaise longue, and handcrafted tables by Sanlorenzo. The dining table is also multi-functional and electrically adjustable; it functions as a coffee table by the window when lowered and slid to starboard.

Galley Modifications

Our client is kept fully informed of the interior design plans throughout the build process, with drawings and updates sent regularly for feedback and/or approval. The galley is an area we have been developing together to ensure the space works seamlessly with their life onboard. For example, the layout features a custom butterfly-wing serving hatch on the starboard side to allow food, drinks and empty plates to be passed between the galley and front-of-house crew quickly and efficiently. Additionally, finishing touches, including a highly durable Dekton worktop, reflect the client’s personal preferences but also practical mindset. Furthermore, the galley is fully equipped with two ovens, a warming drawer, two dishwashers, ample fridge and freezer space, and an abundance of worktop space.

Crew Quarters Personalisation

Although the design and configuration of the main living areas take priority, our client has also considered the needs of his long-serving staff. The client has chosen to enhance the crew area with the same door hardware as the rest of the boat as well as fully carpeting the area to dilute the divide between guest and crew areas. The Chief Stewardess/Chef will enjoy the benefits of an enhanced cabin and shower room, and the convenience of multiple laundry appliances. These include two Miele Pro washing machines, two Miele Pro dryers, and one combi washer/dryer. Additionally, the deck and interior crew have access to Spot Zero Water, enhancing the cleaning process inside and outside the boat.

Electric Steering Options

While electric steering remains a relatively recent innovation, our client acknowledges the numerous advantages that come with this groundbreaking technology and has chosen to incorporate it into their SL96A. By eliminating hydraulic pumps and hoses, the installation process becomes notably simpler, and the entire system occupies less space. Moreover, the WorldYachts system boasts exceptional reliability, ensuring that the power steering remains unaffected even if one engine ceases to function.

Anchor Enhancements

The vessel is equipped with two 125kg anchors fitted into designated compartments, and each side is equipped with a polished stainless-steel chain. Chain washing pumps are fitted as standard and chain counters have been added, along with each anchor pocket being fitted with a camera and light for easy deployment and retrieval of the ground tackle. The windlasses are 400v AC 3-phase, 4kw with brakes and as a custom addition, our client has also opted for two additional capstans on the foredeck area to facilitate quicker groundline handling and provide a backup retrieval method should the main windlasses fail.

SL 96A

Sanlorenzo Shipyard

The Sanlorenzo shipyard in La Spezia, Italy, has been building high-quality motor yachts since 1958. It is a boutique firm in the yachting industry, producing only a limited number of made-to-measure units per year. Each yacht is designed and produced according to the specific requests, style, and desires of the individual owner. Building a Sanlorenzo takes time and passion, so the shipyard can only accommodate 50 customers a year. Over the years, the shipyard has launched over 1000 yachts, each one different from the other.

Cabin Layout Modifications

Our client has chosen a five guest-cabin, three crew-cabin layout, but with the ability to use one of the crew cabins as a guest cabin for kids. This means the boat can function like a six guest-cabin boat if required. All eight cabins have ensuite shower rooms, and there’s a day head too. The shower rooms in the VIP cabins have been customized with sliding doors to the sleeping area, to create a feeling of space when left open, and internal glass doors to the WC and shower. And a private inner hallway leading to the Owner’s cabin has been added. The flybridge features a custom dining table with a wrap-around sofa, and there are many furniture modifications in the main saloon including custom cabinets handmade by Sanlorenzo.

Electronics Modifications

Sanlorenzo offers standard silver, gold, and diamond packages for navigation electronics, but our client requested a far superior spec. With Garmin the provider of choice, a total of 11 large and 7 small Garmin touchscreens will be fitted throughout the yacht. Everything will be digitally controlled via an EmpirBus system, and two radars will provide excellent assistance with navigation. A high spec Flir camera delivers superb thermal imaging and night vision. And the steering will be controlled by a state-of-the-art electric fly by wire system

Pilothouse Modifications

Our client wanted to extend the screen area in the pilothouse and eliminate any metalwork from the arrangement. So, we’ve configured an impressive display of five 22-inch Garmin 8422 screens positioned in a seamless curved design. This is something that has not been done before onboard a Sanlorenzo yacht.

Moulding

In February 2023, the hull moulding process began in the factory in Italy. Stringers and frames will be put in place, and the hull will be given time to cure before it comes out of the mould at end of April 2023.

Sanlorenzo begins construction of the first 72Steel

The new flagship of the superyacht fleet will be the largest ever built by the yard.

In a very private ceremony with the owner in attendance, the keel of the first Sanlorenzo 72Steel was laid. This marks the official start of the construction of this remarkable flagship superyacht.

The 72Steel is an innovative project, yet it maintains Sanlorenzo’s unmistakable style and DNA: an imposing 72-metre-long metal yacht, five decks and a volume of 1850 GT. Due to be launched in 2025, a second unit of the same line has also been sold.

Zuccon International Project and Francesco Paszkowski Design will address the exterior lines and interior design. The 360 degrees design centres around onboard liveability, in which the owner’s cabin will have a dedicated deck. Interiors and exteriors will work together in a smart and functional manner, and feature extensive glazing.

This new protagonist of the Sanlorenzo range will be one of the first yachts of the future, being equipped with a hybrid diesel-electric motor system, the result of the shipyard’s ongoing research into real solutions to reduce the environmental impact of its vessels. This system embodies the best green technology on the market to significantly reduce emissions in the atmosphere and at sea. A high level of onboard comfort is achieved by streamlining spaces dedicated to the engine area, in favour of internal volumes for owners and guests.

At present, there are 22 steel and/or aluminium Sanlorenzo superyachts from 44 to 73 metres under construction. The Superyacht Division continues to record steady growth and reaffirms its leadership in the metal sector with a fleet of 45 vessels in progress.

For more information on the Sanlorenzo 72Steel, please contact us.

Sanlorenzo has launched its first 57Steel superyacht in La Spezia. The launch of this model marks a very important date in the ongoing growth of the Sanlorenzo’s Superyacht Division.  This first example is 56.50 meters in length with five decks and a tonnage of 1050 GT. A prototype of the line, it will be delivered to its owner at the beginning of 2023.

In terms of design, Sanlorenzo’s new addition was overseen by Bernardo Zuccon, studio Zuccon International Project. This is the first time he has designed the exterior lines of a superyacht of this size.

“The 57 Steel is an ambitious project behind which there has been an intense amount of typological research. This very important study has been at the centre of Zuccon International Project’s development since the beginning of its collaboration with Sanlorenzo. The aim was to create a craft of around 1050 GT with functional and lifestyle features that are normally found on boats of a larger size. From a design point of view, the most important challenge was to find the right balance between the volume and proportions of the boat. The external lines have a defined and extremely fluid progression in which the yard’s language shines through. We can define 57Steel as “a skillful play of balance between content and container.”

Bernardo Zuccon, Zuccon International Project

sanlorenzo superyacht 57steel

This new superyacht allows for indoor and outdoor spaces that are decidedly out of the ordinary and revises the different functions of on-board spaces in a new way. In fact, the layout of the 57Steel alters the traditional balance whereby the wheelhouse, which is normally located at the bow of the upper deck, is relocated to another deck – the bridge deck typical of larger yachts. This offers the possibility of using the upper deck differently. It is here that we find the owner’s cabin overlooking the large Owner’s deck, a private space that guarantees an exclusive view of the sea.

Thanks to the unusual layout, a large full-beam VIP cabin, which can be used as a second owner’s cabin, has also been placed forward on the main deck. This large aft area includes a swimming pool with a transparent bottom that allows light to filter into the beach area below. The beach area can be further extended towards the water thanks to the folding terraces. 

Designed by Studio Vickers of London, the interiors were created by working closely with the client. This made it possible to create warm and cosy environments that perfectly meet the ideas and wishes of the owner.

”We were tasked with creating a warm, detailed and inviting interior for an experienced owner and his family aboard this 57-metre steel Sanlorenzo. The design process was a huge creative pleasure and the shipyard team responded really well to our design direction, producing a wonderful interior. We were excellently supported by West Nautical’s management and construction team, who were extremely professional. We have worked with Sanlorenzo before and know the care and attention to detail, but on this yacht, it was exceptional.”
John Vickers, Vickers Studio

This 57Steel is the first of four sold units, and another 21 Sanlorenzo superyachts from 44 to 73 meters are currently under construction. A fleet of 45 units are also in progress. As such, the Sanlorenzo Superyacht Division continues to grow steadily and reaffirms itself as a leader in the steel sector.

Sanlorenzo Superyachts at Monaco Yacht Show 2022

Staged from 28 September to 1 October at Port Hercules, the Monaco Yacht Show sees Sanlorenzo’s Superyacht Division exhibit among industry leaders with two of the most successful models in its Superyacht fleet: 62Steel and Alloy. Sanlorenzo also celebrates the sale of its new flagship, the 73Steel, scheduled for delivery to an existing Sanlorenzo owner in 2026. Bluegame’s BG72 and BG42 are also at the show.

Sanlorenzo 62Steel

With its five decks and a gross tonnage of 1350 tonnes, the Sanlorenzo 62Steel is one of the most esteemed superyachts in the entire industry.

An impressive five-deck metal superyacht, first unveiled at the Monaco Yacht Show in 2021, the 62Steel boasts interior spaces that ensure maximum comfort for all guests. The special feature of this model is encapsulated in the owner’s suite area, an airy space located on the upper deck that offers a breathtaking panoramic view and is connected to an outdoor bow area of over 140 square metres: an entire deck for the exclusive use of the owner. 62Steel is as much about privacy as it is about conviviality, with the main deck area divided between the saloon and dining room and opening outwards onto the large pool with its transparent floor that becomes a sunbathing area when required. Four units of this metal giant have been sold to date, the third of which is scheduled for delivery in early 2023. The fourth unit, the project will grow to a length of 64 metres and will be renamed 64Steel.

Sanlorenzo Alloy

Another proud representative of the brand’s values around the world, winner of the World Superyacht Awards 2022, and World Premiering at the show: the Sanlorenzo Alloy.

A fast-displacement model measuring 44.5 metres in length and made entirely of aluminium, Sanlorenzo Alloy is the perfect synthesis of the typological experimentation that the shipyard has been pursuing for years to bring new points of view on board, exploring ever new scenarios to offer owners and their guests. With a layout that moves away from the traditional layout of spaces to take the concept of liveability to the maximum, Alloy is a superyacht that opens up to the seascape by offering surprising spaces to be experienced both inside and outside. These include the owner’s cabin conceived as a private apartment of 147 square metres and organised on three levels connected to each other, with an indoor and an outdoor area.

The collaboration between the Sanlorenzo team and Bernardo Zuccon, who was responsible for the exterior design, made it possible to conceptualise, design and build a three-deck yacht that maintains sleek, essential lines and at the same time offers megayacht solutions thanks to its large volumes, in fact the GT are 490, the success of which is testified by the ten units sold to date.

BG72

On the docks of the Monaco Yacht Show, the BG72, the fleet’s elder sister, represents the brand’s innovative DNA. Filling a gap in the yachting market, the BG72 brings together admirers of both fly and open boats.

BG42

In addition to the disruptive BG72, Bluegame is also presenting the BG42 Big Game. This is an exceptional chase boat to accompany Sanlorenzo’s 62 Steel and Alloy superyachts on display. With this version of the BG42, dedicated to lovers of open sea fishing, Bluegame returns to its roots and expresses all its sporting soul. A model so unique that it will not go unnoticed in the marina, thanks also to the unique hull graphics created by Roberta Verteramo Art-Designer and the first-rate fisherman equipment.

Sanlorenzo to Build the New 73 Steel Superyacht

Sanlorenzo Superyacht Division is awarded contract to build the fleet’s new flagship, the 73Steel

Sanlorenzo’s sustained growth continues, once again confirming its undisputed leadership in the steel superyacht sector with a significant new sale.

Sanlorenzo’s Superyacht Division, recently sold the largest superyacht ever built by the yard, the 73Steel. Nine steel vessels have now been sold in 2022, increasing the 23-strong fleet of 44-73m superyachts currently under construction.

Sanlorenzo Super Yacht Steel 73 Silhouette black and white

Sanlorenzo Steel

This new steel giant will have an overall length of 73 metres. An innovative diesel-electric propulsion system aimed at minimising emissions, and a completely unconventional layout will take the connection between interior, exterior and nature to a level not seen before. The exterior lines will, once again, be created by the Zuccon International Project studio, while the décor promises to be innovative and revolutionary.

“The design of the new 73Steel represents a fascinating new chapter in the yard’s history, not only because of its size, which is currently the largest ever built, but also because it is a testament to how strongly the company believes in the evolution and importance of a complex market such as the superyacht market.

The BGM75 benefits from increased stability, large volumes, and reduced fuel consumption, demonstrating the yard’s capacity for sustainable design. The ultra-efficient hull is derived from the America’s Cup. Designed by Philippe Briand, a world-renowned expert in the design of performance hulls, optimisation of the Volvo IPS propulsion system means 50% less power is required than mono hull vessels of the same volume.

Carbon in the hulls and the use of lightweight materials for all non-structural parts including furnishing components, also contribute to an impressive reduction in fuel consumption. An additional detail in sustainability is the production of 5kW of green energy, guaranteed by 56 solar panels that can be installed on the deckhouse.

As designers, we ca be nothing but proud, once again, to participate in this new adventure, basing our project research on the development of a design that, despite the large volumes available, is able to convey a principle of extreme dynamism, sportiness and contemporaneity. It is exactly this subtle dialogue between the search for a strong stylistic identity and a constant inspiration to stylistic features now consolidated within the brand’s DNA, that is the perfect interpretative key to this project.

Each line has been sculpted to emphasise the tension and plasticity of the forms, which seem to be in constant motion, without pause, modifying and adapting themselves with the aim of creating the perfect dialogue between interior and exterior spaces; a dynamic and incessant rhythm that aims at a formal evolvement able to reconstruct every time and in every detail that powerful identifiable language that has always characterised Sanlorenzo products.”

Bernardo Zuccon, Studio Zuccon International Project

73Steel will be designed to create the most intense interaction between ocean and nature on board at multiple levels. This visionary design project perfectly balances form and function, innovation and technology, once again bringing something surprisingly unprecedented on board.

The focus on maximum comfort combined with meticulous attention to aesthetics will create spaces in which family intimacy and privacy will be at the heart of this unparalleled superyacht.
