The gateway SD
The SD90 opens Sanlorenzo's semi-displacement range, which climbs from this boat through the SD96 and SD118 to the SD132 flagship. Introduced in 2022, it gives owners the SD line's long-legged, comfortable character at its most accessible length. The SD boats draw their look from the trans-Atlantic liners of the 1930s, and the SD90 carries that heritage in a compact hull. It sits in the composite Yacht Division and is built to individual order.
For a buyer, the SD90 is the way into a different kind of yachting from the fast SL boats, one built around distance and ease. It suits owners who want to cruise slowly and stay aboard for long stretches. As the smallest SD it keeps running costs and crew needs sensible.
Classic lines, modern volume
The exterior comes from Zuccon International Project, drawn with the timeless, slightly formal profile that marks the SD family. The design favours a soft, seaworthy shape over a sporting stance, in keeping with the boat's long-range purpose. Large windows and generous deck spaces open the yacht to the view and the air. The look is calm and enduring, meant to age well.
Deck arrangements borrow some of the space-saving thinking seen elsewhere in the fleet, widening the interior where it counts. The foredeck and aft cockpit are shaped for relaxed time at anchor. A flybridge adds a further outdoor room with commanding views. The whole boat reads as a comfortable cruiser built for slow, panoramic days.
The SD90 opens Sanlorenzo's long-range line, a compact cruiser built for distance and easy days at sea.
Room to settle in
Inside, the SD90 accommodates eight guests and a crew of four, a balance suited to family cruising over longer periods. The semi-displacement hull gives generous interior volume for the length, with good ceiling heights and large windows that frame the sea. Interiors follow the quiet, material-led style that runs through Sanlorenzo, and owners can tailor the finish to their own taste. The mood inside is settled and residential.
The layout is built for time spent aboard, with comfortable shared spaces and cabins that make the most of the beam. The slow, steady character of the boat suits long lunches and quiet evenings at anchor. Guests and owner alike get room to spread out. It is a yacht designed to be lived on for weeks at a time.
Built for distance
The SD90 offers a choice of engines, with twin MAN inline-six units of around 800 hp for the most economical running, or twin MAN V8s of around 1,200 hp for a little more pace. Top speed is a modest 14 to 17 knots depending on the choice, in keeping with the semi-displacement character. The point of the boat is not speed but the easy, efficient cruise and the range it brings. Fuel is carried at around 13,000 litres.
The naval architecture favours a soft, stable motion in a seaway, which is what long-distance owners ask for. Sanlorenzo keeps the engineering conservative and proven, suited to reliable use far from home. The lighter engine option in particular rewards owners who plan long, unhurried passages. It is a hull tuned for comfort over the miles.
Who the SD90 suits
The SD90 suits the owner who prefers slow, comfortable cruising to fast hops between bays, and who wants the SD line's character at a manageable size. It is well matched to families planning long seasons and unhurried passages, with room to stay aboard for weeks. As the entry SD it keeps crew and running costs in check. For a buyer drawn to distance over speed, it is a clear starting point.
Against other semi-displacement yachts near this length, its case is the SD line's heritage look and easy motion at sea. For a Sanlorenzo owner it is the gateway to a slower, more travelled way of using a boat. It rewards those who see the horizon as the destination.

| Engines | Sanlorenzo's own fleet page lists two factory options: twin MAN i6 diesels at 800hp each (14-knot top speed) or twin MAN V8 diesels at 1,200hp each (17-knot top speed). Third-party listings disagree with each other because they each describe only one of the two factory options - itBoat's 800hp/17-knot combination and a yachtbuyer.com listing's 1,200hp/14-knot combination both mismatch engine and speed, which the manufacturer's own page resolves. |

| Fuel and water tankage | 13,000 litres fuel, 2,000 litres fresh water, confirmed on both Sanlorenzo's own page and a yachtbuyer.com fleet listing. |
| Range | Reported by BOAT International at over 1,200 nautical miles at an 11-knot cruise; this figure appears in only one source checked and is not on Sanlorenzo's own page, so treat it as reported rather than confirmed. |
| Hull and naval architecture | Semi-displacement GRP hull, exterior and naval architecture by Zuccon International Project, interior by Patricia Urquiola - confirmed by Sanlorenzo's own page and corroborated on the design credit by yachtbuyer.com. |

Сильные стороны и что учесть
Сильные стороны
- Two engine packages at the point of orderThe factory choice between an economy-focused MAN i6 (14 knots) and a performance-focused MAN V8 (17 knots) is unusual at this size and lets a buyer trade speed for fuel economy without changing hulls.
- An active, proven production lineBOAT International has covered multiple SD90 launches and a 2026 Cannes Yachting Festival debut, indicating sustained demand rather than a one-off model.
На что обратить внимание
- Modest range for a 27m semi-displacement yacht1,200 nautical miles at an 11-knot cruise (the one figure found) is well short of what an expedition-oriented yacht in this size class offers, limiting the SD90 to coastal and regional cruising rather than long ocean passages.
- Third-party spec sheets are unreliableMultiple yacht-sale sites publish mismatched engine-and-speed pairings for this model that Sanlorenzo's own page contradicts; a buyer comparing listings should verify the exact engine fitted on any specific hull directly with the yard rather than trust an aggregator.
