Sanlorenzo SL78
Allow us to introduce the SL78, Sanlorenzo’s new entry-level model.
Sanlorenzo SL78
Standard power for the SL78 is twin 1,622-horsepower MTU 10V 2000 M94s.

On our test day that engine configuration gave the newcomer a top speed of 28.1 knots.

Arguably one of the coolest tricks of the American version of the SL78 is this mast.
Designed to allow the boat to pass beneath the bridge before their Sag Harbor, New York location it…
Sanlorenzo SL78
…takes a bow!
That’s a pretty handy option whether you’re passing under a bridge or checking your electronics.

The stairs to the flybridge, at right, are supported by glass to help the saloon feel open.

The “floating” stairs lend the yacht a modern, artistic feel.

Another cool trick borrowed from larger Sanlorenzos:
Check out the size of the ports, if you can even call them that.
Sanlorenzo SL78
Sliding mirrors can block the ports when privacy is desired, which tends to happen in the head.
Sanlorenzo SL78
This angle of the master stateroom shows why those head ports are so large;
they provide ventilation to the suite.
Sanlorenzo SL78
Ventilation and of course, LOTS of light.

The dinning area forward of the saloon is both formal yet informal, again if that’s even possible.

You know you’ve got some large MFDs aboard when you can read them from the other side of the flybridge.

Another touch we’ve seen on larger Sanlorenzos is the sunpad beside the helm.

Just a handsome flyrbidge bar? Not on the SL78, it too has a trick up its sleeve.
Sanlorenzo SL78
It reveals the perfect spot for a large TV.
This looks like a nice spot to catch the game or an evening movie.
Sanlorenzo SL78
Like many new yachts, the SL78 has a comfortable looking bow lounge.

The lower helm is ship like and modern.
