Sanlorenzo has presented an intriguing project as it presented the SHE 25.5 meter, a perfect execution and lesson how to bring the school of past yacht design gone by in the present and into the future. SHE is offered as an exclusive production, although no numbers have been given if it be will produced in two or ten units. Probably Sanlorenzo is gauging interest from the project as it was announced. Designed by Sanlorenzo lead designer since 2018 Bernardo Zuccon for exterior and Pierro Lissoni for interior, SHE is short for Sanlorenzo Heritage and gets inspiration and pays tribute to the sixties produced timeless classics that shaped that decade as the Sanlorenzo Super Garuda, but also other notable Italian classic's like the Baglietto Maiorca, Cantieri di Pisa Pegaso, and Picchiotti Mistal. Zuccon evolved to perfection a style of yacht which was forgotten bringing the past into the future, with details as the raised cabin deck, and classic squared stern being distinct details of the SHE project. But beyond the exterior Sanlorenzo SHE is a yacht launched into the future powered by twin Volvo 1000hp coupled to the IPS pod drives hybrid electric system. This hybrid propulsion set up will give a twenty knots cruise speed and a nine knots electric only cruise. The hybrid system also gives a triple functionality; full-electric propulsion for quiet cruising, automatic battery recharge in less to an hour to full during diesel navigation enabling overnight stays without generator use, and a booster mode that adds electric thrust to diesel propulsion enhancing performance while reducing engine RPM. Adding to its green credit SHE is also to feature a special four meter bespoke carbon fibre build electric tender. As layout goes Sanlorenzo SHE will feature more then you think innovative exteriors and interiors. The classic stern, discreet and compact while navigating, opens at anchor transforming itself into a large sea-level terrace that expands the yacht’s spatial experience and reflects the customers’ demand for openness and versatility. The Main deck unfolds on a single level, free from physical barriers. The cockpit, spacious and adaptable, becoming a blank canvas for the owner to personalise, blending relaxation and conviviality with ease. The deck is finished with a sustainable synthetic reinterpretation of natural teak. Selected for its near-zero maintenance and a surface temperature reduced by up to four degrees centigrade, it delivers all these practical benefits without sacrificing timeless elegance. The superstructure is developed across two staggered levels. At the bow, a dedicated relaxation area with solarium is complemented by an up top Sun deck, where every function is calibrated to minimize visual impact and elevate the yacht’s skyline. SHE also offers the Smart Island system a modular outdoor composition allowing for flexible configurations both on the Sun deck and in the cockpit, without the need for fixed elements that would obstruct the transparency of the surrounding glazing. The interior layout is classic, with essential customisation options that allow the owner to tailor the onboard experience. The onboard architecture unfolds across three levels, including a raised mid level mezzanine acting as a connective hinge between the Main and Lower decks. At stern, the living area hosts a lounge, bar and helm station; a fluid, convivial space designed for both navigation and relaxation. The main salon, elevated and directly connected to the cockpit, features full-height glazing that provides a harmonious relationship with the sea. A sculptural circular staircase leads to the slightly lower mezzanine, which houses the dining area, directly linked to a spacious, fully equipped galley and the crew quarters located forward. This intermediate level benefits from natural light filtered through the superstructure’s glazing, creating a soft, atmospheric transition between spaces. The Lower deck accommodates a full-beam owner’s cabin at the stern, followed by a VIP cabin and a guest cabin, all en-suite and characterized by luminous interiors, refined materials and a sense of quiet precision. The crew area, located forward, includes two cabins for three crew members and a spacious, fully equipped galley. The Sanlorenzo SHE is gentleman's yacht of the past design, adding privacy and functionality, with clear separation between guest and service areas.
