First Look: Innovative 110-Foot Sanlorenzo Yacht Will Debut At Cannes Yachting Festival
Sanlorenzo's new 110-foot yacht will debut in Cannes I love summer. All the swimming, sailing, and cruising aboard my mighty Mako 22 center console powerboat with family and friends has brightened my spirit. And my smile is just a little bit brighter because of the many hours spent in the sun. However, the days are getting shorter and my summer reverie may be coming to an end. But the good news there's lots to look forward to. Like the steady stream of cool new yachts being launched to be ready for the fall boatshows. And the newest model from Sanlorenzo--the SL110A--has caught my eye for several reasons. Check out the large pool on the new Sanlorenzo SL110A First, (and this is hardly a technical insight) is the hot tub on the foredeck. It calls to me! Now this may the first yacht preview to lead with commentary on its hot tub. But, c'est la vie. In fact, it could be called a pool due to its large size, and the way it integrates with the copious lounge space on the foredeck. The result is a minimalist yet elegant retreat, optimized for livability and connection with the water. A hidden hatch cleverly conceals the mooring area, ensuring cleaner lines and improved usability. The full-beam owners suite on the Sanlorenzo SL110A And I think the larger-than-average pool on the foredeck is actually a great example of the innovative way Sanlorenzo has collaborated with Zuccon International Project for the exterior design and Piero Lissoni, Lissoni & Partners for the interiors to bring fresh ideas to the 110-foot size range. 'Asymmetry on SL110A is not simply a formal gesture — but a tool to reshape the spatial harmony onboard, creating a more captivating experience' says Bernardo Zuccon of Zuccon International Project. 'It allows us to sculpt wider interiors, open panoramic views, and dissolve boundaries between inside and out. In every curve and volume, there is a deliberate move toward an architecture that enhances the owner's connection to the sea.' Large windows are a hallmark of the new Sanlorenzo SL110A Meanwhile, the interior features large windows, retractable bulwarks, and sliding gunwales to allow light and air to dissolve the boundary between inside and outside and enhance the sensation of space. 'Given her new proportions, dimensions and clean lines, I believe the SL110A is one of the most elegant yacht Sanlorenzo's ever produced— perhaps one of the most elegant yacht currently in production, said Piero Lissoni of Lissoni & Partners. 'She has a design language that is increasingly architectural and distinctly less naval.' Sanlorenzo SL110A's main saloon The second feature that really grabbed my attention was the full-beam owner's suite. It provides panoramic sea views, total privacy, and direct access to the foredeck pool. A private entry connects the master cabin with the bow and upper decks, allowing the owner to enjoy separation while staying connected with every corner of the yacht. Dark wood paneling, coffered ceilings with resin finishes, herringbone patterns, and stone-effect materials define the yacht's interior vibe. The large terrace on the main deck of the Sanlorenzo SL110A Below deck are four guest cabins (two VIP, two convertible twin/double) and generous crew quarters with three cabins, six berths, and a separate mess to ensure operational privacy. The mezzanine housing the wheelhouse provides direct access to a flybridge offering the flexibility to create a sunbathing lounge, al fresco dining area, or private retreat with direct access to the pool. The SL110A features a large garage 'SL110A is a clear statement of Sanlorenzo's design philosophy — where architectural purity meets innovation with purpose, yet elegance,' says Sanlorenzo CEO Tommaso Vincenzi. 'The SL 110A concept embodies the sophisticated spatial ergonomics that made the iconic SL108 a true industry benchmark, setting her clearly apart from competition.'

UniBoAT – University of Bologna crowned overall winner at the Monaco Energy Boat Challenge
MONACO, July 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- After four intense days, the Yacht Club de Monaco concluded the 12th edition of the Monaco Energy Boat Challenge. Uniboat-University of Bologna Argonauts Team, supported by Sanlorenzo, was crowned overall champion, and for the fourth time, they won the Energy Class (2021,2022,2023 and 2025) . At the Challenge, major industry players and young engineers combined their expertise to accelerate the sector's energy transition. This year again, HSH Prince Albert II of Monaco, President of the Yacht Club de Monaco, was keen to meet the students, stopping at paddock to discover the latest advances and following the races up close from the pontoon. 'This edition was quite unique. The event itself was quite unique because it is impossible to find so many young engineers working for the sustainability of the yachting industry at the same place at the same time. Monaco is still the place where we can be in advance and for that reason we are Capital of Advanced Yachting', said Bernard d'Alessandri, YCM General Secretary. 'We are very proud to host and to work with young generations and it is beautiful to see people from everywhere in the world heading to the same direction', he added. Winners of the slalom and endurance event, first in the speed record with a new Energy Class record (26.63 knots), tied with compatriots Elettra UniGe - Università di Genova, and winners of the Innovation Prize and Design Prize, the Italians from UniBoat-University of Bologna Argonauts Team impressed both at sea and ashore. 'It's our fifth edition here participating in Monaco. We had some problems with hydrogen last year and this year we won every single race. We got first place so it couldn't have gone better for us', said Tecla Costa, who's part of the team. Working on their boat named 'Futura', there are around 30 people of different departments, from structural to powertrain, from hydrogen to marketing and aerodynamics, to better develop the project in every aspect of it. Their dominance is based on an accomplished, seamless technical approach: propulsion system design optimised to maximise manoeuvrability, a high-performance reliable battery, fine-tuned transmission system, and above all in-house development of a counter-rotating traction engine that ensured outstanding performance. Added to all that, a lighter boat and rigorous training regime for the pilots made all the difference against very high-level opponents. 'We won every race today so I'm very happy with the result and we look forward the next competition in Olbia', added team pilot Massimiliano Scalzulli. Second place of the podium went to another Italian University. It is team Elettra UniGe with their high efficiency catamaran with a 32 kW motor and 9.66 kWh battery, innovative L-drive system and 3D-printed propellers to maximize performance and energy use. Bronze medal went to the Croatian team Adria Racing and their high-perfomance modular catamaran powered by a 20 kW electric motor featuring a 10 kWh battery, carbon-Kevlar composite cockpit and real-time satellite telemetry. This edition saw the introduction of the AI Class for autonomous boats, won by Antwerp Solar Boat Team (University of Antwerp, Belgium). Three major trends emerged: the growing role of artificial intelligence for energy management, the maturity of hydrogen technologies, and the development of toroidal propellers to reduce underwater noise pollution. The overall speed record of the event was broken with Frauscher Boats (Open Sea Class) reaching 49.84 knots. The Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation Sustainable Yachting Technology Award, worth €25,000, recognizes the team whose solutions demonstrate measurable impact. Winner: Alma Mater Studiorum-Universiity of Bologna. The AI Class Winner was Antwerp Solar Boat Team - University of Antwerp – Belgium, with an AI navigation system that analyzes visual data from onboard cameras and enables real-time object recognition and autonomous steering logic. This 12th edition has seen 42 teams, 20 nationalities, 29 universities, and more than 1,000 students on deck. Among the competing teams – coming from different parts of the world, from India to Indonesia, from Italy to Qatar, from France to Portugal, some have once again pushed technological boundaries this year, particularly in the Energy Class category. In four years, battery storage capacity has almost doubled at equivalent weight, while improving safety, a tangible sign of the progress made. The event has also reached a milestone in terms of participation, with more boats competing and growing industry involvement. Two major conferences brought together international experts to discuss innovation, hydrogen and alternative fuels. In line with its commitment to responsible yachting, the SEA Index, developed by YCM, ha announced two key partnerships: one with AtmoSud to assess fine particles PM and Nox emissions, and the other with Bureau Veritas to develop a voluntary system for underwater noise assessment. The developments reflect a shared desire to measure the overall impact of yachts and support the industry in ways to reduce its environmental footprint.

Singapore is becoming Southeast Asia's main hub for luxury, finance, and yachting
Photo: Facebook/Republic of Singapore Yacht Club SINGAPORE: Singapore is quickly becoming the main hub for luxury experiences and financial conferences in Southeast Asia, according to a report by private aviation group Vista . This was supported by three-digit growth in Vista's flight traffic during major event periods in the city-state. Notably, during Taylor Swift's Eras Tour stop in Singapore, flight traffic jumped by 362% compared to the country's daily average flight traffic last year. Meanwhile, the Singapore Grand Prix drove a 168% surge in daily average flight traffic. The Formula 1 event coincided with other financial events, including the Milken Institute Asia Summit and the Global Trade Review Congress. The Singapore Yachting Festival also brought 46% higher business jet traffic compared to the daily average for the year. Sanlorenzo Asia Pacific's Ewa Stachurska noted that Singapore is emerging as a premier yachting hub with eight boat clubs and marinas and 4000 boats and yachts. The private jet marketplace of Vista saw a doubled flight traffic year-on-year in Singapore. Knight Frank's Christine Li added: 'Confidence in Singapore's prime assets is underscored by the significant UHNWI (ultra-high-net-worth individuals) commercial property transactions for 2024/2025. This blend of strategic diversification, expectations for long-term asset appreciation, and sustained high-value investment activity solidifies Singapore's position as a premier destination for sophisticated capital.' /TISG Read also: Hospitality and tourism job interest in Singapore jumps 130% as industry rebounds after pandemic: Indeed
