Sanlorenzo, the prestigious Italian Shipyard that for more than 50 years is focused on the production of motor yachts exclusively tailor-made to the style and requirements of each owner, has recently launched a new important boat of his fleet the SL100 New MENTXU yacht.
The SL100 New – Mentxu yacht is the second hull of the great news of the season 2009/2010. In the unmistakable Sanlorenzo line, matching elegance, balance of volumes, well balanced ratio between empties and full bodies, the Ameglia (La Spezia) shipyard was able to concentrate an extraordinary number of innovations, without knocking in any way the consistent family feeling of the Sanlorenzo planning fleet. After a broad and deep analysis of the concept, the Design Department of the shipyard – with the cooperation of different naval architects and designers – elaborated the project, in respect of the Sanlorenzo design tradition, which raised the conservation and the stability of its lines as the worthiest value in its yachts, considered as icons in the yachting business.
The external lines of the super yacht Mentxu are updated to present-day requirements with delicate, but substantial touches on the gunwale line, on the windows, on the shape of the transom and the fly bridge. The most significant element on the SL 100 New motoryacht Mentxu is the much larger windows than on the previous SL 100 model. The Mentxu yacht is available with or without hard top. Its outline, its shape, its poles, and the shading system of the area are completely new design. On the bathing platform is mounted an original shower system composed by a pivoting arm which is hidden, when not in use, on the teak part of the transom gunwale.
SL 100 New MENTXU superyacht is powered by two MTUs 16V2000M93 with 1,790kW (2,435 HP) that can assure to the yacht a maximum speed of 29 knots and a continuous cruising speed of 25 knots.
An unmistakable style and a refined design place the Sanlorenzo yachts to the highest level of the international production. In more than 50 years of history the Italian Shipyard became synonymous of excellence in terms of quality and attention to details, typical features of the craftsmanship production.
