Sanlorenzo has launched fifth 52Steel superyacht

Sanlorenzo Superyacht has launched the fifth unit of its 52Steel, a 52m steel vessel of which a further three units are currently under construction at its La Spezia yard.

A five-deck superyacht under 500GT, the 52Steel features a number of design solutions normally found on much larger models. One of the revolutionary elements of the yacht is the stern area: on the main deck the swimming pool with a transparent bottom allows light to pass into the area below, creating a dreamlike effect. The fifth unit bears the signature of Officina Italiana Design for its exteriors while the interiors are designed by architect Tiziana Vercellesi.

“The interiors requested by the owner, and interpreted by me, have a classic style with warm colours and a discreet elegance that is revealed in the details, the workmanship and the choice of materials such as Tanganyika wood, light-coloured leathers and marble,” says Vercellesi.

“In fact, the creation of the interiors reflects the rich knowledge and experience of those who know how to use wood and marble with expertise. In the main salon, for example, we have created a made to measure floor with inlaid marbles of different colours and a classic Italian design. The furnishings will be enhanced by decorative elements and pieces of art made especially for this boat.”

Like every Sanlorenzo yacht, this unit is a tailor-made model made to measure according to the owner’s requests and lifestyle. From the white colour of the exteriors, used for the first time on a 52Steel, to the choice of materials, finishes and furnishings to the design of the spaces. The layout features an unusual configuration: at the bow of the main deck, where the owner’s suite is usually located, Sanlorenzo has placed instead two large VIP suites, complete with entrance, cloakroom, bathroom and cabin, cut out along the ship’s length and featuring huge windows looking directly out to sea. The owner’s suite is situated at the stern of the upper deck, which thus becomes, together with the cockpit, an area for the exclusive use of the owner. At the owner’s request, this unit is also equipped with a lift that runs through all the decks, from the lower deck to the sundeck.
