Sanlorenzo is ready to return to the Monaco Yacht Show, the world's most important nautical kermesse for yachts over 30 metres in length, where from 22 to 25 September it will exhibit two of the fleet's top superyachts: the 500Exp, which with nine units sold and 11 under construction continues to achieve record figures, and the 62Steel, which is being shown to the international public for the first time.
Two models that represent the pinnacle of innovation at Sanlorenzo, the result of a unique technical and design heritage and the ability to intercept market demands have allowed the shipyard to establish itself at the top of world rankings, confirming its leadership in the metal sector.
A 61.50-metre superyacht with a maximum beam of 11.90 metres, a gross tonnage of 1,300 tonnes and five decks, the 62Steel, the fourth model of which is currently under construction, is the paradigm of how to be at sea without falling into the luxury stereotypes that are still so common in the nautical world. On display in Monaco, the 62Steel Cloud 9, the first model in the line, is a superyacht with a wealth of comfortable spaces that provide a truly special experience for Sanlorenzo owners in their private moments of loisir.
Starting from the vast private area of the 215 sqm owner's suite on the upper deck, which not only enjoys an incomparable 180 degrees panoramic view, but is also functionally connected to the 140 sqm outdoor area in the bow, with large sunbathing and relaxation areas and a swimming pool. An entire deck for the exclusive use of the owner, reached by a lift, which includes not only the suite with two bathrooms and walk-in dressing room, but also a study, a living area and, aft, the 67 sqm Sky Lounge, a space reserved for entertainment and fun, completed on the outside by an open-air dining room that ensures a panoramic view while dining "al fresco".
Contending with the supremacy of "place to be" on board the 62Steel, is the delightful Beach Club at sea level, lit by the transparent floor of the swimming pool aft of the main deck, where the owner and guests can enjoy a vast area, which is literally a private beach which extends under cover for 92 sqm, with relaxation areas, a bar area, gym and hammam, plus another 40 sqm of folding terraces aft and on either side offering guests the chance to enjoy the sea "au fil de l'eau" for swimming, diving and sunbathing enhanced by the sparkling sea.
To completely free up space in the beach area, the 62Steel has been designed with two garages with access through side openings, amidship, which contain the main 9.5 metre tender to starboard and the service tender and jet ski to port.
The focal point of the yacht's conviviality, the saloon on the Main Deck shares the 90 sqm area with the dining room, which can seat up to 16, the latter separated from the living area by a glass panel with a thin metal mesh that allows all the light from the adjacent area to be captured while maintaining privacy. Aft of this deck, the outdoor living space borders a second swimming pool dedicated to guests with a transparent base, designed with a sliding cover that transforms it into an extended sunbathing area.
One of the most popular models for owners wishing to enjoy long crossings without sacrificing maximum comfort, the 500Exp combines Sanlorenzo's unmistakable elegance with ample and versatile spaces on board and the latest generation technologies which have made it possible to transform a type born as a work boat into a sophisticated superyacht designed to allow complete autonomy in exploring distant destinations.
A powerful and majestic superyacht whose impeccably elegant lines make it instantly recognisable, sophisticated and unique. The hull, inspired by the profiles of the great ships of exploration, promises distant destinations and exotic places.
At 47 metres in length and with a tonnage of just under 500 tonnes, the 500Exp Drifter W is distinguished by her exceptional navigational performance, with a high cruising range of 4,000 nautical miles, enabling her to both cruise along the coast with minimal consumption and accomplish ocean crossings with ease.
The Explorer thus offers owners a gift that is now almost unobtainable: an authentic sense of adventure.
On board the Explorer every type of nautical entertainment is assured thanks to the possibility of accommodating tenders or sailing boats up to 9 metres or, depending on the Owner's wishes, a seaplane or a submarine, spaces unthinkable in yachts of the same size.
The lower deck, on the other hand, houses a beach club, which, thanks to the opening hatch, allows for a complete connection with the sea, and which can optionally be converted into a garage to accommodate tenders of up to seven metres and numerous toys.
A model that perfectly represents Sanlorenzo's ability to respond to all kinds of requirements, such as the possibility of creating a touch-and-go landing platform for a helicopter, an unusual feature in yachts of less than 50 metres.
