Sanlorenzo Asia, a division of Simpson Marine, is delighted to announce the sale of the second 44Alloy superyacht to Asia. This is the second 44Alloy sold to Asia, with the first one being signed in late 2018 and expected to launch this autumn.

The fast displacement 44.5 metre, 470 GT and entirely aluminum built superyacht is the new 2020 model expected to premiere at the Cannes Yachting Festival in September. Renowned yacht designer and long-term partner of Sanlorenzo for the new SX and relaunched SD line, the Zuccon International Project studio has been in charge of exterior styling and interior design.

The yacht is characterised by clean, sporty lines with distinctive cut-outs in the bulwarks to provide unlimited sea views from the main deck and a sky lounge on the upper deck. The 44Alloy is a highly capable fast cruiser able to reach a maximum speed of 22 knots. The aft side of the hull comprises of a spacious beach club that opens on three sides with a lateral tender garage featuring a 7m tender.

An innovative feature is the excep-tional master cabin which spans over three levels and covers a total of 145 sqm, a solution of ultimate comfort never seen before on a yacht of this size. The suite comprises of its own private outdoor bow lounge area with a private pool.

The new 44Alloy is a true conceptual update of the prize-winning 40Alloy, San-19lorenzo’s 40 metre aluminium model famous for its fold-out terraces in the owner’s zone, gullwing doors on the bridge and its remarkable performance and commercial success, with as many as 10 yachts sold. The 44Alloy is set to repeat her predecessor success with five units sold to date, before her official launch.

“We are extremely proud of this sale given the current climate and it goes to show the passion of our owners to power forward and enjoy life on the ocean in what are certainly challenging times. The client is an experienced yacht owner who sought a state of the art design and a yacht that made the most of the spaces on board. The 44Alloy certainly does this with its unique use of spaces both internally and externally. The owner's suite, for example, has been brilliantly developed by Bernardo Zuccon spanning three floors and enabling the space to be used in so many different ways. We are also delighted to welcome not one but two of the 44Alloy in Asia in addition to several other Sanlorenzo superyachts already cruising in the region”, says Nick Stratton, Sanlorenzo Asia Sales Manager.

The new 44Alloy superyacht is currently one of 19 superyachts being built at the impos-ing 50,000 sqm Sanlorenzo Superyacht Division in La Spezia with hull no 1 expected to launch this summer
