28/11/2024 - 11:34 in Superyacht by Sanlorenzo

Sanlorenzo announces the launch of the new flagship of its Yacht Business Unit: the SD132. Measuring 40.7 meters in length, the SD132 is the largest composite-built yacht ever crafted by the shipyard and the largest in the historic semi-displacement line of the brand. The SD132 continues the legacy of the previous models in the SD line (SD92, SD126, SD112, SD96, SD118, and SD90) while refining and innovating its key features.

"We are thrilled with the launch of the SD132 project, which embodies the perfect combination of significant size, innovative design, and timeless elegance, in true Sanlorenzo style. The exceptional market response has been confirmed by the five contracts already signed before the launch, demonstrating the great success and appreciation this yacht is receiving among owners.” – said Tommaso Vincenzi, President of Sanlorenzo’s Yacht Business Unit – “Every detail of the SD132 reflects the dedication and passion of our team, which has once again sought to challenge traditional limits related to onboard space and volume, achieving a remarkable result.”

Extraordinary volumes and a direct connection with the marine environment:

With the SD132, Sanlorenzo has combined significant dimensions with unprecedented volumes: its 420 gross tons make the yacht unique among models of this size, thanks in part to the innovative use of space, which has become a distinctive feature.

One of the project's strengths is the innovative configuration of the expansive beach area, with its seamless connection to the aft cockpit. Here, the lateral terraces, once rotated and opened, offer guests large walkable surfaces of 70 square meters and free the cockpit from any visual obstacles, transforming it into an open terrace that allows guests to fully connect with the sea.

In addition to the expansive volumes and spaces, and the revolutionary configuration of the beach area, the SD132 also stands out for its vast 85 square meter space on the fly deck. The forward living area features a crystal-clear mini pool equipped with a sunbathing system, connecting the forward section to the main deck.

The side garage with transverse launching capability, which can accommodate a tender up to 6.25 meters long and is typically found on larger yachts, offers extensive possibilities for custom layouts. This space, located in the forward area, is complemented by an additional hangar designed to house toys or a rescue boat.

An asymmetric design for unprecedented interior spaces: 

The exterior design, created by Zuccon International Project, is characterized by a sense of absolute balance and gives a unique visual harmony to the application of the asymmetry concept, of which Sanlorenzo is the creator and pioneer in the yachting world. On this yacht, the main deck walkway is positioned on the left side, while the upper deck walkway is on the right, balancing the weight distribution and optimizing the volumes.

Thanks to this configuration, onboard spaces are optimized, seamlessly connecting the decks and facilitating vertical circulation, thus maximizing the use of interior volumes. The yacht features four guest cabins on the lower deck, which also includes the crew area with a dinette and laundry facilities. A spacious owner’s suite, measuring 55 square meters, is located in the forward section of the main deck. Also on the main deck is a large salon with expansive windows, complemented by a second salon located on the upper deck.

The collaboration between Sanlorenzo and Zuccon International Project, which also extends to the interior design of the first SD132 unit, has resulted in a project that celebrates uniqueness and places the owner at the center, delivering a yacht that reflects and enhances their needs in every detail.

"The interiors reflect the stylistic journey undertaken by the Studio, aimed at enhancing a sense of naturalness and establishing a sensory connection between the owner and the yacht. A material moodboard and earth-inspired colors create authentic, balanced, and welcoming environments. The exteriors also demonstrate a commitment to research: innovative layout solutions and technological flexibility seamlessly integrate the yacht with the surrounding nature, emphasizing the livability of the spaces," stated Bernardo Zuccon - Zuccon International Project.

The first unit of the SD132 offers spaces and a stylistic language inspired by the colors of the earth and nature itself, aiming to create a more authentic onboard experience: the interiors are defined by a focus on materiality, featuring soft tones and textures that emphasize sensory engagement for a tactile experience. Every interior space adheres to this philosophy, from the stone-like cement finish to the bathroom furnishings and the owner’s suite, where a combination of dark and light woods was chosen. The same approach was applied to fabric selection, enhancing the spaces with a warm and distinctive feel, while also ensuring sustainability in the choice of materials.

The result is an exceptionally sturdy yacht, in line with Sanlorenzo’s tradition of semi-displacement vessels, designed to ensure extended range capabilities for reaching even the most remote destinations. This new yacht, in particular, offers a range of 3,200 miles, making it well-suited for transoceanic navigation.
