Sanlorenzo SL106 (2009 - 2020) Rivals

Which yacht is best for you? As always, it’s all about personal choice. Some people choose a yacht on its characteristics (incidentally the SL106 has won 1 award, most recently for "Italian Innovation Award"). Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the planing hull of the SL106 delivers speeds of up to 31 knots. Some may even choose their yacht based upon features such as: five en suite cabins, pilothouse design, one-level deck salon, expansive upper deck, crew quarters and tender garage.

Accommodation

If hosting guests overnight is your top priority, then the Sanlorenzo SL106 offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 10 guests with its 5 cabin layout option. Nonetheless, competitors like the Hatteras 105RPH have a slight edge in guest accommodation, with the capacity to sleep up to 14 guests in 6 cabins. This makes them more suitable for those looking to maximize the number of family and friends accommodated onboard. The SL106 benefits from a master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, full-standing headroom and a walk-in wardrobe is a standout and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. The Westport Yachts W112 is tailored for somewhat smaller groups of 8 guests yet can still deliver an outstanding level of comfort for family vacations.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Sanlorenzo SL106 holds its own at a respectable 25 knots and a maximum speed of 31 knots. However, the Hatteras 105RPH surpasses this slightly with an impressive cruising speed of 22 knots signalling a lean towards more dynamic performance capabilities. The Sanlorenzo SL102 Asymmetric also impresses with a cruising speed of 26 knots. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Arcadia A100, with the slowest cruising speed of 15 knots, emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed and enjoying the journey over the destination.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Arcadia A100 impresses with its extensive range of 3,927 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Johnson Yachts 110 and Gulf Craft 100 all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The Sanlorenzo SL102 Asymmetric focuses on performance and efficiency, with a cruising speed of 26 knots. Meanwhile, the Hatteras 105RPH offers the best raw performance, with a maximum speed of 29 knots. The Custom Line 33 has an impressive gross tonnage of 262GT, the largest of the competitors here.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Sanlorenzo SL106 stands out with notable features and design elements. These yachts cater to a wide range of preferences and needs, making the choice a matter of personal taste and specific requirements in the world of luxury yachting.
