Latitude delivered from Sanlorenzo's La Spezia yard in 2019 at 66.0m LOA as the largest expression of the SD132 platform to date. Her peak-season Mediterranean charter rate runs €560K per week as of February 2026, plus 30% APA, which places her squarely in the 60m to 70m charter middle and slightly below the comparable Heesen and Amels yachts of her generation. She is one of the more interesting 60m+ Sanlorenzo deliveries because she demonstrates how the yard's semi-displacement platform scales beyond what most people associated with the brand pre-2017. She also has a charter pattern that deserves a closer look before you book her.

The SD132 platform

The SD132 is Sanlorenzo's modular semi-displacement steel-and-aluminium platform, designed by Bernardo Zuccon and engineered for the 40m to 70m range. Most SD132 deliveries are in the 44m to 52m segment. Latitude is the longest SD132 variant Sanlorenzo has built, with a stretched hull and a reorganised superstructure that gave her four full decks plus a sundeck. The platform's signature is the long, low profile and the comparatively modest GT-to-LOA ratio: at 1,300 GT she is meaningfully less voluminous than a Lürssen or Feadship of equivalent length. That is the trade-off she makes.

For a charter client, the SD132 platform produces a yacht that feels more like a long-range cruiser than a stationary platform. The cruising speed of 14 knots is genuinely useful (not just on paper), and the semi-displacement hull gives her better speed-to-fuel-burn than a comparable Heesen FDHF. She is a yacht for a charter client who wants to actually move during their week, not anchor in one bay for four nights.

The interior

Achille Salvagni Atelier's interior was the studio's largest yacht commission at the time of Latitude's delivery. The aesthetic is contemporary-Italian with travertine, bronze, and brushed oak, with a meaningful art programme that includes. The dining saloon seats 14 indoors and 18 alfresco on the upper deck. The main saloon is on the main deck and uses a continuous glass aft bulkhead that opens to the aft deck.

The owner's cabin is full-beam on the main deck forward. The four VIPs are on the lower deck, convertible to twins. The two double cabins are on the bridge deck, which is an unusual placement at this LOA (most 60m+ yachts put all guest cabins on the main or lower decks).

The wellness deck is light by 60m+ class standards. A gym (Technogym specification), a steam room, and a single massage room. No sauna, no hammam, no separate spa terrace. For a Med charter where you are off the yacht more than on it, the wellness package is adequate. For a longer-distance charter, you may notice the absence.

What works on Latitude

The cruising performance. The SD132 platform at 14 knots cruise and 17 knots top speed handles a five-stop daily Med itinerary in a way that most 60m+ full-displacement yachts cannot. For a Balearics or Corsica-Sardinia itinerary where you may want three anchorages in a day, the speed matters.

The crew ratio. 14 crew for 12 guests is comparatively light for the LOA but consistent with the SD132 operating philosophy. The lighter crew complement contributes to APA discipline because there are fewer people to provision for.

The art programme. The art on board is owner-loaned and is unusually strong for the class. Charter clients have access to the collection during their week. Worth asking the central agent for the current rotation when you inquire.

The aft deck. The aft main deck is one of the better-resolved alfresco-dining spaces in the 60m class. Full shading, integrated audio, and a layout that scales for 12 dinners or 24 cocktail guests without rearrangement.

What we would change

The volume per guest. At 1,300 GT for 12 guests, Latitude offers 108 GT per guest, which is below the 60m+ class median of 140-180 GT per guest. The cabins are not small, but the principal saloons feel less roomy than comparable yachts at the same LOA. If volume is the primary brief, Latitude is not the right answer in this size class.

The garage. The tender garage is sized for a single 6.5m chase boat and the standard watertoy fleet. The principal tender (typically a Pascoe 7.5m) lives on the bow on deck cradles. For a contemporary 60m+ yacht we would expect both tenders in a single garage with a side-loading door. The bow-mounted principal tender is a workable solution that compromises the bow lines.

The single helipad position. Touch-and-go pad on the sundeck. Standard for the class. For a Caribbean or remote-area charter, two pads or a certified deck would be the better answer. For a Med charter the touch-and-go is fine.

The wellness deck. As above. Light by class standards. The studio's later work (the 47m series and the post-2022 deliveries) has addressed this, but on Latitude the wellness package is the part of the spec where her age starts to show.

The lack of beach club. Latitude has a swim platform and a transom-mounted shower, not a beach club proper. The SD132 platform geometry does not lend itself to a full beach-club conversion without major structural work. For a 2019 delivery the absence is notable.

Charter rate and availability

As of February 2026:

  • Mediterranean low season (May, October): €450K per week + 30% APA + VAT
  • Mediterranean shoulder (June, September): €490K per week + 30% APA + VAT
  • Mediterranean peak (July, August): €560K per week + 30% APA + VAT
  • Caribbean season (December to April): $580K per week + 30% APA

She typically books 12 to 14 weeks per Med season. As of May 2026 her 2026 Med calendar shows. Her Caribbean 2026-2027 winter season is reportedly fully open subject to a.

The central agent is. Retail brokers can book her at standard 15-20% retail commission.

What we have heard about her charter weeks

Across our broker contacts, the consistent feedback on Latitude is positive but unspectacular. No reported charter-week failures. No reported generator or propulsion incidents during charter. Chef quality has reportedly varied across the seasons (we are aware of one chef change between 2022 and 2023 with mixed initial reviews). Crew tenure on deck is moderate, with a captain in place since and a chief stew since.

The pattern of repeat bookings on Latitude is reportedly lower than on comparable yachts in the class such as Spectre or Cloud 9. This is not a quality signal so much as a positioning signal: clients who charter Latitude once often move up the class on their next booking rather than rebook, in part because her wellness and beach-club spec is not class-leading.

Comparable yachts in the class

If Latitude is unavailable or the brief is different, the closer comparators are:

  • M/Y Spectre (69m Benetti, 2018): more conventional luxury package, similar generation, slightly higher rate. See our Spectre profile.
  • M/Y Cloud 9 (74m CRN, 2017): larger, slightly older, more refined interior. See our Cloud 9 profile.
  • M/Y Home (50m Heesen, 2017, hybrid): smaller, hybrid propulsion, similar Sanlorenzo aesthetic. See our Home Heesen profile.
  • M/Y Galactica Super Nova (70m Heesen, 2016): the fast-displacement comparator with a different cruising character. See our Galactica Super Nova profile.

Frequently asked questions

Is Latitude good for children? Yes, with the standard 60m+ caveat. The cabin layout works for two-couple-plus-children configurations. The watertoy fleet is age-appropriate (sea-bobs, paddleboards, inflatables, water skis). No dedicated kids' area on board, so children share the principal communal spaces.

Where is Latitude usually based? Mediterranean (Balearics, French Riviera, western Italy) in summer, Caribbean (St Maarten and the Leeward Islands) in winter. She is not a global-range yacht.

What is the standard tender fleet? A 7.5m Pascoe limousine as principal tender, a 6.5m chase tender, two Seabobs, two jet skis, paddleboards, kayaks, inflatables, and the standard snorkelling and dive gear.

How does Latitude handle Adriatic itineraries? Well. Her 3.6m draft is one of the more accommodating in the 60m+ class for Croatian and Italian Adriatic anchorages where deeper-draft yachts have access issues. For a Croatia-focused week she is a strong choice on draft alone.

Has Latitude had any reported reliability issues? None publicly reported as of May 2026. We are aware of no charter-week failures, no significant guest complaints, and no major mechanical incidents.

Verdict

Latitude is the right yacht for a 12-guest charter party in the 60m+ class that values cruising performance over volume, prefers a contemporary Italian-modern aesthetic, and is running a Med itinerary with three or four anchorages per day. She is not the right yacht for a 60m+ charter that prioritises wellness, beach club, or static-platform amenity. She is moderately priced for the class and has a clean reliability record.

If you are choosing between Latitude and a comparable Heesen or Benetti for a Balearics or Sardinia week, the SD132's draft and speed are the differentiators. If you are choosing between her and a 70m+ yacht for a Caribbean week, the better answer is up the class to Cloud 9 or Spectre rather than across at Latitude's LOA. For a third-time charter client this is a routine inquiry, not a difficult one.
