The SL86 is a highly successful flybridge motor yacht model from the Italian shipyard Sanlorenzo’s high-performance SL planing line. This model, introduced in 2015, revolutionized the mid-size superyacht segment by combining the traditional comfort of a flybridge cruiser with the sleek, high-speed performance expected from a much smaller open yacht. Designed by Officina Italiana Design and Zuccon International Project, the SL86 is celebrated for its distinctive styling and pioneering design features that maximize light and sea views.
The SL86 is a meter ( ) planing yacht built with a GRP hull and superstructure. The exterior profile is sleek and aggressive, but the most noted feature is the cutaway sheerline and large windows that visually connect the main saloon to the sea. The interior, designed for elegant comfort, often features custom furniture from Italian houses like Poltrona Frau and is accented by fine woods. The layout is optimized for an exclusive experience, highlighted by a massive, extended Flybridge which is one of the largest in its class (m²). The helm station features innovative technology, including an optional floating staircase suspended between glass panes for an airy feel.
