Sanlorenzo SX88

Sanlorenzo Asia-Pacific delivered eight luxury yachts to its clients over a busy European summer season for the Italian shipyard and its APAC representative. The deliveries took place across Sanlorenzo’s shipyards in La Spezia, Ameglia, and Viareggio, with many of the fleet enjoying cruising in Europe before heading to Asia.

The list of yachts handed over included two units of the SX88, the pioneer of Sanlorenzo’s crossover series, while an SX100 was also among the eight deliveries.

The other five deliveries were all different models and included Asia’s first SD90, part of a semi-displacement series that includes the tri-deck SD118, another of Sanlorenzo Asia-Pacific’s summer deliveries.

Sanlorenzo’s expansive planing range was represented by the handover of an SL106A, the second-biggest model in a line modernised by a pioneering asymmetric layout. Other deliveries included an SP110 coupe, which is the first model from the shipyard’s new Smart Performance range and boasts a top speed of over 40 knots.

The biggest yacht handed over was an Alloy, the 44.5m aluminium superyacht that’s part of Sanlorenzo’s Superyacht range.

Nick Stratton, Vice President Sales at Sanlorenzo Asia-Pacific, said: “We are delighted to have successfully delivered these magnificent yachts to our clients in time to enjoy the European summer in the Mediterranean, following which they will relocate to various locations in Asia. Each yacht represents the pinnacle of luxury and innovation, and we are proud to see them set sail.”

Stratton also commented on the new markets covered by Simpson Marine as part of Sanlorenzo’s purchase of the dealership earlier this year, leading to the dealership’s coverage across Asia-Pacific.

“We see immense potential in all our APAC markets,” Stratton said. “Our tailored approach to yacht design and craftsmanship resonates with clients seeking bespoke solutions and our full range of yachts has something to offer all needs. With our presence now also covering Vietnam and Australia, we are well-positioned to meet their needs and continue our growth in these dynamic markets.”

Since 2015, when Simpson Marine began representing the brand, over 70 Sanlorenzo yachts have been commissioned in Asia-Pacific. Sanlorenzo Asia-Pacific is working on further deliveries and the continued growth of its presence in the regional market, with exclusive activations planned for Australia, Thailand, Taiwan and Hong Kong.

Sanlorenzo Asia-Pacific notes that Sanlorenzo brands brokerage interest is also strong in the region, with a 2019 Sanlorenzo SX88 very recently sold in Singapore, and adds that it currently has several major brokerage deals pending in and out of Asia.
