The Sanlorenzo SX112 is a 34m (112ft) crossover yacht with one of the most unusual layouts in its class. Huge opening living spaces, a 70m² beach club and a boat deck that carries a seriously big tender set the tone, while four Volvo Penta IPS1350 engines give it a top speed of around 23 knots. The clever bit is how all those spaces connect, and how much choice an owner has over how they use them.

On Deck
The aft end of the Sanlorenzo SX112 is a huge open boat deck with room for a seriously substantial tender. On this yacht that tender carries a 150hp Honda VTEC outboard, and Sanlorenzo has built the lifting gear into the structure above it. The crane pivots out when required and is rated to 1.6 tonnes, so there is no separate deck crane parked across the stern when it is not in use.
Once the tender is off, the whole area changes. Teak-faced sections on each side fold down flat, and the presenter was told the beach club grows to around 70m² with both of them lowered. It is a vast bit of deck at water level, with enough room for loungers, gym kit or a fairly serious party without much trouble.
The passerelle is another nice bit of engineering. It extends out to form steps up to the quay, pivots the other way to form steps down towards the water, then retracts back into the stern. There is quite a lot of moving hardware on this yacht, but much of it disappears when you are not using it.
The main deck opens almost completely across the aft end. With the doors pushed aside, the outside deck and saloon sit very close together and there is little sense of a hard break between the two. Sanlorenzo talks about the SX as a beach-house type of yacht, and here you can see what they mean. The water is always close and the aft end stays very open.
The routes through the yacht are unusual. A central lobby has stairs down to the lower deck and a circular staircase up to the deck above, while side doors add another way in and out. The crew also have direct deck access to their own area. It takes a little while to work out where everything goes, but that is part of the SX112's charm. There are several ways to move through the boat without everyone ending up in the same passageway.
A bar sits close to the stair lobby and opens out when needed. Farther forward is the dining area, with the galley close alongside it. The layout is much less formal than the usual separate cockpit, saloon and dining room arrangement, and the deck feels more like one long living space.
The upper deck can be open or fully enclosed. Large side windows power down, the louvred roof opens and the glass panels across the aft end slide back. Shut the lot and it becomes an air-conditioned upper saloon. Open it up and it feels much more like a flybridge.
That matters because the SX112 has its only helm station up here. There are large multifunction displays, engine and IPS controls, bow thruster controls, cameras and another screen for the yacht's main systems. The helm console appears to float ahead of the seats, and the dark headlining gives the whole area a slightly sportier look than you might expect on a yacht of this size.
There is a big daybed to one side, a television that rises from the furniture and space for dining. One seat can also drop and swivel round to make a small desk area. Aft of that is another open deck with room for loungers and a clear view down over the tender deck. There is even a shower tucked into the corner for a quick rinse after a swim.
The foredeck gives you one more guest space. There are two tables, with one able to drop down so the area can take a sunbed instead. You could use it for breakfast, drinks or just somewhere quieter away from the stern, and it gives the owner another useful bit of deck rather than leaving the bow as dead space.
Interior Accommodation
Inside, the Sanlorenzo SX112's main deck is light and bright, with large areas of glass and very little to break up the view aft. With the doors open, the saloon runs straight out towards the beach club, so the water stays in sight through much of the living space.
The main saloon itself is quite relaxed rather than formal. There is plenty of loose seating and a pop-up television, while the dining area sits farther forward with the galley immediately alongside. That puts food service close to the table without pushing the galley right out into the middle of the guest area.
Near the centre of the deck is the stair lobby, and this is one of the more unusual parts of the SX112. A circular staircase leads up to the upper deck while another route drops down towards the guest cabins. The space is open enough to feel almost like an atrium, rather than a narrow corridor with stairs squeezed into it. There is room here for artwork or sculpture too, which would suit the scale of the space rather well.
The bar is tucked into this central area and is hidden away when closed. Open it and the whole section becomes a proper serving space. It is a nice solution because the bar is there when you want it, but does not sit permanently on show when you don't.
There is also a day heads on the main deck and direct access into the crew area from close by. The crew have their own door straight out to the side deck, so they can move between the galley, accommodation and exterior without always passing through the main guest spaces.
The upper saloon has a different feel. The black headlining, low furniture and floating helm console make it slightly darker and sportier, but there is still a great deal of glass around you. A large daybed runs along one side, the television rises from the furniture and the seating can be altered for dining or used with the small desk arrangement by the helm.
What is unusual is that this room can change so much without actually changing its basic layout. Lower the side windows, open the roof and slide back the aft glazing and it becomes a very open living space. Close everything and it is a quiet, air-conditioned saloon with the helm at one end. On a yacht where the main deck has been kept so open, having that second enclosed living area makes quite a lot of sense.
Throughout the interior, the finish is clean and quite understated. Flush wardrobe doors, hidden catches and concealed AV equipment keep a lot of the practical stuff out of sight, while thick doors and substantial joinery give the spaces the solid feel the presenter associates with Sanlorenzo. There is plenty of marble too, particularly once you reach the lower-deck bathrooms, though the accommodation never feels buried under decorative detail.
Owner's Cabin
The owner's cabin sits aft on the lower deck and is much larger than you expect when you first reach this part of the yacht. A full-width bed sits in the main part of the room, with large hull windows on each side and plenty of clear floor space around it. The wardrobes are built into flush panels, with push catches that release the doors, while AV equipment is hidden away in the same run of cabinetry.
The en suite uses a lot of marble and has a large shower, basin, WC and bidet, with more storage for towels and linen. There is also a proper walk-in wardrobe set farther aft, which gives the cabin the sort of storage you would expect at this size.
The really unusual part is the little lobby between the owner's cabin and the beach club. A second heads sits here, and the doors can change which space it belongs to. Close one door and it becomes part of the owner's suite. Close the other and it works as a day heads for the beach club. It’s a small detail, but it makes the layout work properly, and shows how carefully the circulation has been thought through.
Guest Accommodation
Forward on the lower deck is the main VIP cabin. It has a large double berth, good floor space and an en suite with a separate shower, basin, WC and bidet. The bathroom can be closed off properly from the sleeping area, while the cabin itself feels open and bright for a lower-deck room.
A second guest cabin has twin berths and a folding Pullman above, so there is scope for an extra berth when needed. Wardrobes use the same concealed push-release doors found elsewhere on board, and the ensuite has a very large rainfall shower as well as the usual basin, WC and bidet.
Farther aft is another guest cabin that is closer to VIP standard than a typical secondary cabin. It has a large double berth, big hull windows, a small dressing area and more of the hidden wardrobe doors. AV equipment is tucked away behind the cabinetry and the en suite again has a separate shower, basin, WC and bidet.
Crew Accommodation
The crew area can hold up to 5 and sits forward on the main deck, with its own door straight out to the side deck. That gives the crew a useful route in and out without having to pass through the main guest spaces, and the galley is close by.
Down below there is a crew mess with the cabins arranged around it. Two of the cabins are twin-bunk rooms, with the engineer and deckhand in one and the chief stewardess and second stewardess in the other on the yacht toured. Both are ensuite. The captain has a separate single cabin with its own head.
Performance & Engine Room
The SX112 runs four Volvo Penta IPS1350s, all packed into the machinery space beneath the aft deck. Four engines sounds like it ought to make access fairly tight, but once you are down there it is actually a decent space. There is standing headroom, good light and enough room to get around the machinery without everything feeling buried. Most of the important kit is pretty get-at-able too.
There are two ways into the engine room. The aft access is the easier one if the crew need to get tools or parts down there, while a second route runs through the engineering space and back out onto the main deck. That gives the crew another way through at sea, when using the aft entrance may not be ideal.
Flat out, the SX112 will do about 23 knots. A normal cruise sits around 18-20 knots, or you can pull the speed back to roughly 12 knots and see a range of about 1,600 nautical miles. For a yacht with this much volume and four IPS drives, that gives the owner quite a broad spread between a decent fast cruise and slower passage work.
Ownership Considerations
The SX112 carries 18,800 litres of fuel, so fuel is going to be a serious part of the annual budget if the yacht spends much of its time at its 18-20-knot cruise. At around 10-12 knots the economics change considerably, and that slower pace also makes longer passages much more realistic.
A draft of roughly 1.9m (6ft 3in) is useful for a yacht of this size. It gives an owner access to shallower anchorages and smaller harbours than many deeper-draught yachts in this bracket, which suits a boat built so heavily around swimming, tenders and time at anchor.
There is also a fair amount of complexity aboard. The SX112 has four IPS drives and a lot of powered equipment, so maintenance history matters on a used boat. Service records for the pods, hydraulic systems, opening terraces, glazing and tender gear would all be worth a close look before purchase.
Several SX112s have been offered for charter, with rates in the supplied research from around €99,000 to $130,000 per week. That gives owners the option of putting the yacht to work for part of the year, although crew, fuel, berthing, insurance and maintenance still put annual running costs firmly into the high six-figure or low seven-figure bracket.
Used values vary a lot, even between SX112s of the same age. At the time of writing, two 2023 examples are listed at €16.9 million and €10.495 million respectively. That sort of gap puts much more weight on specification, condition, engine hours, charter history and how each yacht was originally configured.

Rivals to Consider
The Horizon FD110 Tri-Deck is almost exactly the same length as the SX112 at 34.14m (112ft), but it is a very different sort of yacht. There is a full tri-deck layout, five guest cabins, a separate skylounge and room for five crew, so you get more of that traditional big-motoryacht feel. It is slower at around 18 knots, though the quoted 2,700nm range is much stronger, and the 1.75m (5ft 9in) draft is actually a little shallower than the Sanlorenzo's. It also runs conventional shafts rather than four IPS pods, which some owners will simply prefer. At roughly 230GT there is plenty of yacht here without adding much length, but the emphasis is quite different. The Horizon gives you more decks and longer legs. The SX112 gives you that huge open stern and much more life down by the water.
The Numarine 32XP is the odd one out here, and probably the most interesting rival if your cruising plans extend much farther than the usual Mediterranean circuit. It is shorter than the SX112 at 32.5m (107ft), yet comes in at a hefty 299GT, with six guest cabins, room for six crew and a quoted 4,000nm range. That is proper explorer territory. The price you pay is speed - flat out it will only do around 14 knots - and the 2.59m (8ft 6in) draft is a fair bit deeper. A 2020 example in the supplied research is asking €11.5 million, which puts it right into SX112 money. So the choice is quite stark. If you want 23 knots, IPS handling and that great big beach-club deck, the Sanlorenzo has the edge. If you want steel, range and a lot more internal volume, the 32XP starts to make a lot of sense.
The Azimut Grande Trideck is the one to look at if the SX112 simply is not quite enough yacht. At 37.6m (123ft) and around 295GT, it is about 3.5m longer and gives you six guest cabins plus room for six crew. The interesting bit is that you do not have to give away speed to get the extra size, because top speed is still around 24 knots. Beam is 7.98m (26ft 2in), almost the same as the Sanlorenzo, while the quoted range is around 1,700nm and draft 2.05m (6ft 9in). A 2024 example in the supplied research is asking €15.9 million. It is a much more conventional big Italian tri-deck, with more cabin space and more yacht around you. The SX112 is the stranger boat, really, with its open stern, moving terraces and whole beach-house idea. Whether that is a plus depends entirely on how you plan to use it.
