Projects: Sanlorenzo 44 Steel, Sanlorenzo SD 112

The famous San Lorenzo shipyard after presenting it's first Alloy Super Yacht last year follows with the project of the 44 Steel. As the title suggest the new Super Yacht from the Viareggio shipyard will be built in Steel. Little information is as yet available about the new project accept for the fact that it will be a three deck. Whatever the case if it will be as innovative and catching as the latest 40 Alloy we are for another threat this renowned yacht builder.
Another new line for San Lorenzo which was introduced in 2007 with the SD 92. SD standing for a semi displacement type hull yacht, giving comfortable but also a more economic speed compared to the planning line this builder is renowned for. The SD 112 unlike it's smaller sister is a three deck motor yacht and will have a 5 cabin interior for 10 guests. Crew accommodation is for 7 members in 4 cabins. Performance is an estimated top speed of 18 knots with continues cruising at 15 knots, powered by Caterpillar C32 Acert engines of 1622hp each. The SD 112 confirms similar characteristics to the SD 92 introduced in 2007 but in bigger more important dimensions. It will be curious to see if San Lorenzo will try to take the concept of a Semi Displacement Yacht in lower size range under 24 metres in the future.
