Two new Sanlorenzo SL78 yachts sold by Sanlorenzo Spain

In a promising start to the year, we are proud to announce the back-to-back sale of another new build 24.6m SL78 yacht to an experienced European client. Hull 686 is currently in construction in Sanlorenzo’s Ameglia facility and is scheduled for final delivery in July 2018. This demonstrates a solid sales performance in Q1 as SL78 Hull number 682 was also recently sold by Sanlorenzo Spain in January 2018. As a result, two ‘made-to-measure’ new build Sanlorenzo SL78 units will cruise to their respective home berths in Mallorca this season.

SL78-686 is the 14th hull of the highly successful Sanlorenzo SL78 model, which was first introduced to the market at Cannes Yachting Festival 2016. Sanlorenzo has carefully designed the SL78 to adhere to its 'innovation into tradition' philosophy which acts to maintain the heritage styling which allows each Sanlorenzo to be easily identifiable and timeless. As with all Sanlorenzo yachts, each SL78 can be tailored to each owner's exacting customisation requirements, contrasting other 'production style' yachts in this category. Having owned several high-volume production style yachts in the past, in commissioning and tailoring this new yacht to their exacting requirements, her owner has made the transition towards the bespoke design capability for which Sanlorenzo is known. SL78-686 will boast an exacting specification designed for luxurious Mediterranean cruising.

This new build unit will be powered by the more powerful twin 1622 HP - MTU 10V2000M96L engine option, which can achieve a maximum speed of 29 knots. Luxurious accommodation for eight guests is divided into four cabins - her spacious owner’s stateroom is located amidships on her lower deck along with a VIP stateroom, a double cabin and a twin berth cabin. There is additional crew accommodation on board for up to two crew members. As with all SL78 units, the flybridge boasts spacious and uninterrupted relaxation spaces due to the storage of the tender in an innovative aft garage system. A jet tender of up to 3.95m can easily be deployed using an innovative hydraulic launching system. Unparalleled natural light is achieved throughout her interior, including her main deck living area which benefits from optimised bulwarks, allowing sunlight to cascade through large windows and contributing to unhindered panoramas of the surrounding coastline.

Sanlorenzo SL78-686 is now the 11th new-build Sanlorenzo superyacht sold by Sanlorenzo Spain, and the third SL78 unit sold by Sanlorenzo Spain since the model’s initial launch in September 2016.

The upcoming Palma Boat Show 2018 (27th April – 1st May) will mark the ‘Spanish Premiere’ of the Sanlorenzo SL78, bringing this cutting edge model to Spanish show audiences for the first time. A beautiful example of the SL106 model will also be displayed at the Sanlorenzo Spain stand throughout the show, allowing a cohesive demonstration of the impressive qualities of Sanlorenzo’s heritage, planing hull SL line.
