Unveiling the Innovation and Luxury of the Game-Changing Sanlorenzo SX120, Unarguably the Coolest New Boat at Cannes

The Sanlorenzo SX120 is a nautical marvel that serendipitously marries decadent luxury with unparalleled practicality. Its introduction at the recent Cannes Boat show marked a significant milestone in marine innovation, establishing the Sanlorenzo standout as a game-changer. Enhanced by chic explorer aesthetics, vast folding side terraces, and a retractable infinity pool neatly tucked under sunpads, the SX120 is not just a boat; it’s a floating paradise. Beyond these luxurious features, the boat boasts an epic beach club, serving as a vast sea-level entertaining area. It also doubles as a practical storage space for toys and tenders. The outstanding nautical space adapts quickly with sun loungers sliding over the pool when not in use, and the boat’s components prove to be practical gadgetry as much as fashionable decor. Contributing to this dynamic design are heavy-duty winches, cleats for the stern lines, and a stylised crane disguised as an arch, swinging round effortlessly to launch and retrieve sea toys. The magic is not confined to the outdoors. Inside, one encounters a sunken aft lounge served by a hidden drinks cabinet and sliding patio doors that amplify space and light. The lounge is sneakily nestled beside a ‘joy lounge’, a versatile space that can be morphed into an extra guest cabin if needed, supplementing the three double cabins. The chip off the block – Lissoni-designed spiral staircase – further adds to the internal charm, linking the three decks harmoniously. Although the main saloon may seem modest, the boat’s other luxurious amenities more than compensate for it. The master deck owner’s cabin enhances its allure with a foredeck lounge and stunning views through the front screens. Lastly, the SX120 is the first leisure boat to feature Volvo’s new IPS Professional platform. Two 1,000hp engines linked to the pod drives boost fuel efficiency, triggering additional engines only when required. With a price tag of approximately €16 million ex-tax, the Sanlorenzo SX120 is undoubtedly the epitome of opulence, distinctly setting the bar high for future marine designs.
