Sanlorenzo’s new Virtuosity is the second superyacht in the 74Steel series, yet it offers something entirely different than the first, such is the beauty of bespoke.
More than four years in the making, the 239-footer shares the same technical foundations—steel hull, aluminum superstructure, and hybrid diesel-electric propulsion system—as the inaugural hull the Italian yard launched last October, but has been radically personalized by the owner. (There were reportedly 18 months of calls between them and the yard before the design phase even started.) It boldly claims four industry firsts, including a living tree rising through two decks, an underwater aquarium in the hull, a waterside “ocean resort,” and an architectural reflecting pool.
The vessel, which will rank alongside its predecessor, Silver Fox, as the largest in Sanlorenzo history once launched, was commissioned in collaboration with Fraser Yachts and developed by the in-house style department, with Zuccon International Project shaping the exterior and Studio Paolo Ferrari leading the interior design.
