Devised under 24-metres, the SL80A is designed to deliver the openness, refinement and liveability typically associated with significantly larger yachts.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397504/image/large-8113495dfc492d411659b809265baaa4.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397504">The first SL80A features exterior design and interior design by <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/105" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Zuccon International Project (Company)">Zuccon International Project</a>, continuing the studio’s long-standing collaboration with the Italian shipyard that has shaped the evolution of the SL line for decades.Taut yet balanced proportions, clean architectural lines and a strong continuity between her hull and superstructure preserve the distinctive identity of the SL line.

By relocating the side passage to starboard, the interior volume on the port side expands. This increases onboard liveability by up to 20 percent, while strengthening the flow between her interior and exterior spaces, without altering the yacht's balanced proportions.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397505/image/large-b9c28e04016c5c824ff4d1e8130042a0.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397505">Accommodation onboard the SL80A is arranged across four guest staterooms, including a full-beam owner’s suite.
