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.

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.'

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.'

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.

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.

'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.'
