Having recently arrived in Asia, the Sanlorenzo SL78 was well received at her Thailand Premiere, hosted on 6 March in the exclusive Trisara resort in Phuket. Distinguished guests were treated to an afternoon of private inspections on board, followed by an intimate evening on the bespoke beach lounge and yacht. Fairy lights, live music and a superb sunset completed the picture. At the event, guests were able to learn more about Sanlorenzo’s famous craftsmanship and brand philosophy. The Sanlorenzo SL78 was anchored off shore, providing uninterrupted views of her stunning profile with the glorious sunset as a backdrop, providing a relaxed ambience for the guests to enjoy. A tender service was offered to transport guests out to the yacht where they were able to enjoy Trisara’s beautiful setting to the fullest. The SL78 is an award-winning entry-level yacht from the fast planing Sanlorenzo SL range that received the ‘Best Exterior Award in the 80-120 feet category’ at the 2016 World Yacht Trophies. Stand out features include large windows on the main deck that allow the main saloon to be bathed in natural light, making the entire space seem bigger than it already is. An interior floating staircase leads up to the flybridge, which is covered by a smartly operated hardtop for ample shade. The flybridge provides a welcoming space for hosting and is perfect for guests to enjoy the views. “The success of the Sanlorenzo SL78 Thailand Premiere is a great boost to start her Southeast Asia tour and is a testimony to Sanlorenzo’s growing strength in the Asian market,” says Nick Stratton, Sanlorenzo Asia Sales Manager. “This exclusive event was an excellent opportunity for us to share the brand’s made-to-measure philosophy directly with clients who were able to experience the yacht’s best features including a streamlined profile, elegant design and welcoming living area. The high-level of bespoke craftsmanship is an experience unlike any other. It is also the reason why Sanlorenzo has been so well received in Thailand, making this launch event such a great success.” The Sanlorenzo SL78 will stay in Phuket for private inspections throughout the month of March before she embarks on her journey to other countries in the Southeast Asia.
