Project: Arcadia 100

After starting its brand launch with two important models, Arcadia from Naples goes back to the drawing board and decides that its time extend its line and fill the gap between the 85 and 115, by presenting the project of a 100 model. The Arcadia 100 follows the familiar look of its smaller and larger sister, and will be a two deck plus pilot house super yacht with flybridge. It's main deck continues the extension use of glass all over as seen on the other Arcadia's, and the fly-bridge will impress for having an integrated pilot house which will be possible to transform into an open hard top environment. The Arcadia is offered in half a dozen total layouts for its fly, main and lower deck. But the most important options will be that for an owners room, and galley to be located on the main deck or below. Power will be twin 1000hp engines, with fuel capacity of 16000 litres.

Sanlorenzo starts an important new course and with this extend the collaboration with renowned design team of Mauro Miceli and his Officina Italiana studio onto its entry level planning range. During a press conference at the Dusseldorf boat show Sanlorenzo unveiled projects for the SL76 and SL86 which will replace the successful and nearly two decades standing 72 and 82 models. It is an important move from Sanlorenzo and a replacement of two important models, which even when still in production always got the admiration of being timeless classic yachts. As the rendering above for SL86 shows, the new course of Sanlorenzo will feature large windows in both the super-structure serving the living, and the lower deck for the cabins. Additional features will be the option of a larger extended bathing platform with hi-lo launch; this increasing space for an extra tender or allowing that of a larger rib.  On plan the SL86 is offered with two interior layouts; the main difference but important option is all about the galley this available on the main deck, or below in the crew area.  In the lower deck galley choice the VIP suite will move further forward. The SL86 will also feature technical advances such as vacuum infusion for the hull construction, floating floor to minimize vibration, and hull hydrodynamics which improve consumption at cruse.  Power options for the SL86 start from twin MTU of 1622hp up to 1947hp units. Top speed is 31 knots from the large MTU engine option.
