The SD132 has a top speed of 17 knots and a transatlantic range of 3,200nm
Months before the first SD132 had its world premiere at the 48th Cannes Yachting Festival and then appeared at the 34th Monaco Yacht Show, Sanlorenzo’s biggest composite model in its Yacht Business Unit had already earned a huge fan – the owner. The 41m Andiamo is the third Sanlorenzo yacht owned by the loyal client, whose previous order was for a 35m motoryacht.
“The feedback from the owner has been truly enthusiastic,” says Tommaso Vincenzi, Salorenzo’s CEO. “Not only has he expressed great satisfaction with the yacht itself – its performance, design and onboard experience – but he has also praised the relationship established with Sanlorenzo. The overall journey, from construction to delivery and first months of use, has exceeded his expectations.”
Andiamo was the first of seven orders, while an eighth was under negotiation before the SD132 had its world premiere at Cannes. The shipyard appears to have ticked most of the boxes with the Yacht Business Unit’s flagship composite model, which has a transatlantic range of 3,200nm.
Bird’s eye view of the open aft decks
Sanlorenzo worked with long-time collaborator Zuccon International Project to design the SD132, which has taken the Italian builder’s semi-displacement series to new heights, lengths and volumes. Compared to the SD118, the next biggest model in the line, the SD132 is 5m longer, with an overall length of 40.7m.
Remarkably, though, it’s 130GT bigger, representing a 45 per cent increase in volume compared to the series’ second-biggest model and making the 420GT tri-deck “unique among models of this length”, according to Sanlorenzo.
Beyond size, the SD132 extends Sanlorenzo’s emphasis on asymmetric design, an initiative that started on the shipyard’s SL series of planing yachts, where it’s now used across all current models. On the SD132, the asymmetry is evident in a widebody design to starboard in the main saloon and to port in the skylounge on the upper deck.
“The differences with the SD118 go far beyond scale,” Vincenzi says. “With an asymmetric layout, expanded flybridge, open beach club and forward pool lounge, the SD132 transforms how guests engage with outdoor and interior spaces.”

The SD132 also marks a bold stylistic shift from its predecessor, the SD126, with the bow becoming a social hub rather than a technical zone.
Forward of the beach club, the garage is now lateral instead of longitudinal, with transverse launching capability and able to accommodate a 6.32m tender. There’s also space in the forepeak on the main deck to store a smaller tender and a jetski. Andiamo’s interior, meanwhile, embraces tactile, ‘earthy’ elegance over glossy finishes.
“This evolution isn’t just architectural – it’s experiential. The fact that the SD132 enjoyed strong market success even before its official unveiling confirms that it clearly speaks to a segment of owners seeking evolution rather than excess,” Vincenzi says.
“In essence, the SD132 reflects a desire for immersive living at sea, supported by innovation and intelligent design. In fact, the brief for SD132 was reimagining the onboard experience, not simply by redefining its scale but by crafting a space in close connection with the sea.”
SEA CONNECTIONS
The experience can start even before you get onboard, if you’re able to witness the beach club’s aft bulwarks and the transom door all fold out and hover above the water.
The 70sqm beach club has three foldout platforms linked by a sunken lounge
Once opened, the three lateral terraces offer guests 70sqm of walkable waterside real estate that can be dressed with loose furniture and offer true seaside living, presenting varying places and ways to face and even enter the water.
In addition, the opening of the three platforms unveils the central ‘beach lounge’, a covered, comfortable and slightly sunken zone. Furnishing includes L-shaped sofas on both sides of a marble-topped island bar, which has bar stools allowing guests to face a TV on the forward bulkhead.
From the aft platform, steps either side of the transom door lead up to the cockpit, where guests on the aft sofa or facing chairs can enjoy clear views to port, aft and starboard once all three terraces are lowered. Again, this is true connection to the water.

There’s an enclosed staircase to starboard, with sliding doors to port welcoming guests to the oak-lined interior. Zuccon International Project was responsible for the interior design of the first SD132, and has remained the designer of choice for the interiors of at least the next six subsequent orders.
On Andiamo, the saloon starts with a long dining table set to port. The lounge is set forward to starboard, where a huge L-shaped sofa and chairs face a TV on the port wall, with customised artwork adorning the walls.
ACCOMMODATION CHOICES
A port door leads to the galley, while the main guest foyer leads to the central staircase, a day head and on to the 55sqm owner’s suite, which can be configured according to the owner.

On Andiamo, the owner’s zone starts with a nicely equipped gym, a customisation by an owner whose crew includes a personal trainer. Among the next orders for the SD132, options for this space include a children’s room.
Forward of this room, the owner’s suite becomes full beam and again, the spaces can be designed and configured with the owner. Sanlorenzo’s standard deck plans show an office to starboard, bathroom to port, an aft-facing bed and a full-width walk-in wardrobe forward.

However, Andiamo features a day room with chaise longue and deck to starboard, walk-in wardrobe to port, a forward-facing bed, and a full-width bathroom forward.
“The shipyard’s philosophy is deeply made to measure, so even within a consistent design framework, owners are encouraged to shape their own aesthetic narrative,” Vincenzi says.
Whatever the arrangement, the bedroom is beautifully light due to huge windows on both sides of the bedroom, while the ambience on Andiamo benefits from a combination of dark and light woods.
The master suite’s full-width bathroom is forward
There’s also design flexibility on the lower deck, where the four beautifully appointed en-suite guest cabins can be configured with inward-facing double beds and bathrooms that include an enclosed toilet. The two aft VIP cabins are slightly larger, while on Andiamo the forward two have each been set up with twin beds and a pullman bunk.
There’s also accommodation for seven crew in four cabins in the crew quarters, which is in the forward part of the lower deck and includes a dinette and laundry facilities. The captain’s cabin is located on the upper deck, aft of the impressive four-screen wheelhouse.
UPPER LIVING LEVELS
For guests, the upper deck is reached by steps from the cockpit or the central interior staircase, which leads aft to an enticing skylounge that’s arguably the nicest interior zone on the SD132.
The skylounge offers clear starboard views through sliding doors and a long balcony
A full-beam design on the port side allows a huge sofa to face starboard, where sliding doors open fully to a side deck that can include a fold-out balcony, measuring about 14ft long by 4ft deep.
More sliding doors lead to the aft deck, which is the main zone for alfresco dining and makes the most of the yacht’s 8.5m beam. Like many areas onboard, the aft upper deck can be configured how the owner wishes, but the owner of Andiamo has selected a dining table aligned lengthways for the covered area.

Beside the table is a long outdoor grill/bar, where the chef can prepare meals. Aft are two large L-shaped sofas wrapping around the inside of the clear balustrade.
The upper deck is also home to the open-air social zone on the foredeck, which includes a spa pool and adjoining sunpads.
The yacht’s enticing outdoor spaces are crowned by the 85sqm sundeck, which has a forward, full-width sunbathing area, while the clear aft end of Andiamo includes a row of four sunbeds.

The central hardtop, fitted with slats, covers a lounging zone that starts with mirrored L-shaped sofas and extends forward to loose chairs to starboard and a beautiful marble-topped L-shaped bar to port, where several bar stools present a popular social hub.
Just as the owner can customise many of the living spaces, they can also choose their own interior décor or from options proposed by Zuccon International Project. The studio has developed a material mood board and a range of earth-inspired colours, aiming to “enhance a sense of naturalness and establish a sensory connection between the owner and the yacht”.
As the first SD132 on the water, Andiamo shows off the Zuccon offerings, with the use of natural materials, soft textures, and a colour palette dominated by warm, earthy tones such as tans, browns and stone grey.

“Sanlorenzo’s approach ensures that each SD132 is a unique expression of its owner’s lifestyle,” Vincenzi says.
“The shipyard’s made-to-measure approach is an emotional journey with the clients who can work with the design team on layouts and materials, and even commission bespoke artworks or furniture according to their lifestyle or the usage of the yacht – whether the goal is a family-oriented retreat, a charter-optimised layout or a minimalist sanctuary.”
As for the owner of Andiamo, Vincenzi reveals that the repeat client’s ongoing delight with Sanlorenzo’s yachts means he has one eye on a future purchase. “His excitement is such that he has already begun planning his next yacht to avoid long waiting times.”
