Grace and space: welcome to Silver Fox

In association with

When Silver Fox, the new Sanlorenzo flagship, slipped out of the marque’s La Spezia shipyard in spring 2026, there was a moment of quiet consideration in the yacht world. The first of Sanlorenzo’s new 74 Steel series, the 72-metre superyacht had shown what is possible when it comes to grace and space.

“With the 74Steel, we’re challenging the idea that size equals excess,” said Massimo Perotti, the marque’s chairman and CEO at the time. “We’re demonstrating that we can apply the same refinement and precision you’d expect from Sanlorenzo, even in this new, larger category. This is not just about size – it’s about philosophy.”

But for all the words, Silver Fox is a yacht that needs to be seen to be believed. Beyond the touch-and-go helipad – for the ultimate charter arrival – there are no less than two tender garages amidships, home to a 10-metre Pascoe limo tender and the crew tender, as well as a range of water toys. On the bow, there’s a sports court – complete with floodlights – for pickleball, basketball or football day and night. But perhaps the most impressive feature is the open aft deck, dominated by a large glass-bottomed pool that illuminates the beach club and bar below.

Built with charter firmly in mind, Silver Fox sits at the sweet spot for a family on the water. Large enough to feature a separate crèche-cum-family room to keep younger guests happy, it’s still intimate enough to feel like a home from home. The captain hand-picked the crew of 21, many of whom have worked together before, ensuring that oh-so-slick, anticipatory service comes as standard. No need to ask for that second martini, it’s already on the way.

Imposing yet elegant on the water, the exterior design is the work of Rome-based studio Zuccon International Project. Elements such as the vertical bow and dynamic stern give Silver Fox a sporting aesthetic, while on board, the interiors were worked on by Francesco Paszkowski in collaboration with Margherita Casprini.

Matte wood finishes and an eclectic mix of materials – mixed with vast, light-filled spaces – make Silver Fox a particularly welcoming environment on board. Floor-to-ceiling windows allow light to flood into the main saloon, while five spacious en-suite cabins have room for 16 guests. The centrepiece of the yacht is the 300-square-metre master deck, home to a private saloon, master cabin and a geometrically designed office that wouldn’t look out of place on the set of Succession. This links to a private, forward-facing terrace complete with a generous hot tub.

Food plays no small part in the Silver Fox experience. Chef Ben Cooke runs a serious galley, and on the bridge deck aft, a full-sized Big Green Egg stands ready for long, unhurried barbecue lunches – the kind that drift pleasantly into evening. For those with more of a scene in mind, the crew also execute what they call an ‘Ibiza set-up’, transforming the yacht into an entertainer’s playground at anchor. The details, wisely, remain between captain and guest.

With a bar, fire pit and Jacuzzi on the sundeck, the party piece is Silver Fox’s wellness-focused beach club at sea level, featuring a terraced gym, massage suite, sauna, hammam and cold-plunge pool, as well as a hair salon for fixing up once the workout is done.
