The new Sanlorenzo SL80A brings the shipyard’s iconic asymmetric architecture to the entry point of the historic SL range. Designed by Zuccon International Project, this sub-24-meter yacht distills four decades of design evolution into a compact, intimate platform that matches the livability of significantly larger vessels.
The asymmetric layout remains the technical centerpiece. By shifting the starboard passageway, interior volume increases by 20 percent, creating a luminous, open main deck.
This configuration allows for a broader, more architectural saloon, while a mezzanine navigation station optimizes visibility and maximizes living space. The profile remains unmistakably Sanlorenzo, with clean lines and a flybridge that integrates seamlessly into the silhouette.
Inside, the SL80A accommodates four guest cabins, including a full beam owner’s suite. The material palette features warm Thai walnut and textured Azteca parquet, while a folded, micro-perforated metal staircase serves as a sculptural architectural focal point.
The design prioritizes a seamless connection to the sea. The stern cockpit opens fully to the water, and the versatile bow lounge transforms from a sunbathing area into a dining space. The result is a sophisticated, nimble yacht that offers the construction standards and comfort of a superyacht in a more accessible format.
