Sanlorenzo opens 2026 at Boot Düsseldorf with a clear statement of intent, presenting design leadership, responsible innovation, and its unique philosophy for life at sea.
As the most prestigious indoor boat show in the world welcomes international owners and the European boating community, Sanlorenzo proudly presents the SD90 — a model from its semi-displacement line, and a benchmark for intelligent cruising beneath 28 metres.
Entering the year with strong commercial visibility and one of the most diverse and desirable yacht portfolios in the industry, Sanlorenzo - the world's leading maker of single brand yachts over 24metres - continues to shape the segment through its blend of architectural thinking, Italian design culture and constant evolution.
Boot marks the first major appointment of 2026 for the Maison, reinforcing Europe's central role in the global yachting market, and representing Sanlorenzo's core community of connoisseurs.
Massimo Perotti, Executive Chairman of Sanlorenzo, said:
"Boot Düsseldorf has always been one of the most important boat shows for Sanlorenzo, a strategic start to the year that allows us to begin 2026 with great momentum. This year we will be exhibiting the SD90, one of our models that embodies the principles on which our company is founded: the constant drive for innovation, refined and elegant design and respect for the environment.
It is a very important start to the year for our entire family: Bluegame is presenting the new BGX83, while Nautor Swan is kicking off its 60th anniversary celebrations with the Swan 51 dual energy. These new offerings highlight the value of our Maison as a Monobrand of distinct brands, never overlapping and with a strong identity, which move forward with clarity: pioneers where it counts and faithful to what lasts over time."
SD90: A dialogue between space, silence and efficiency
The SD90 represents a significant step in Sanlorenzo's path towards greater sustainability in yachting. As a more compact gateway into the revamped SD line, this semi-displacement yacht is the third chapter in a success story that began with the SD96 and SD118.
With a hull length of less than 24 metres and an overall length of almost 28 metres, the SD90 represents a focused approach to efficiency — rethinking space, propulsion, insulation and materials to reduce consumption and elevate comfort.
The exterior lines, designed by Zuccon International Project, structure the yacht over two and a half decks, featuring an open flybridge, a lower deck, and a main deck. The layout is designed to guarantee the boat's maximum liveability, introducing new solutions that give a totally new perception of space compared to other yachts in the same range. This remarkable flexibility allows the yacht to adapt to the evolving needs of life on board, transforming through innovative furnishing solutions and versatile configurations. This approach is matched by meticulous material research: the saloon's bow wall, for example, is crafted in bronzed fluted glass, creating a refined effect that enhances its sense of depth.
The same attention extends to equipment and onboard systems, all carefully selected to guarantee high performance while reducing consumption. Advanced thermal and acoustic insulation further contributes to greater efficiency, ensuring comfort with minimal environmental impact.
With the SD90 at Boot, Sanlorenzo demonstrates to clients how it is leading an evolving industry through a constant process of research and innovation, aligned with Sanlorenzo's roadmap toward alternative propulsion and reduced-impact cruising, whilst reaffirming its commitment to the European market at the strategic core of the brand's growth.
Boot Düsseldorf takes place from 17 to 25 January 2026.
