Sanlorenzo SX100 | 30.5m | Sanlorenzo  

Kicking off the list, with its award-winning design, you certainly won’t miss Sanlorenzo SX100 at the marina. The exterior design by Zuccon International Project has sleek, linear and fluid lines, connecting the yacht with the sea. Its generous interiors also follow this theme, with panoramic windows that create an open, immersive feel while lounging in the central area.  

Adding to the experience are its side terraces, which open up further to create even more living space to enjoy sunbathing and the open sea. The Sanlorenzo SX100, represented by Sanlorenzo Asia-Pacific/Simpson Marine, is a four-cabin crossover explorer ideal for long voyages.  

Sanlorenzo SD118 | 35.75m | Sanlorenzo

As a key member of the Sanlorenzo SD line, the Sanlorenzo SD118 combines performance and design. Built for long-range cruising, its large interior and efficient cruising capabilities make it well set up for extended cruising around Asia.  

Speaking technically, its semi-displacement hull allows for smooth, uninterrupted sailing to destinations such as Indonesia and its 17,000 islands, and its asymmetrical, open-air aft deck allows travellers to take in uninterrupted ocean views.  

Its amenities don’t falter either, with five guest cabins, including an impressive master suite, that connect to a private two-level foredeck lounge. Additional highlights include a jacuzzi and a transformable beach club area.  

Princess Y95 | 29.11m | Princess Yachts

The Princess Y95, represented by Boat Lagoon Yachting, challenges preconceptions about the classic flybridge yacht through its elegant yet familiar silhouette.  

With five cabins for 10 guests and more than 29.11 metres of space on offer, this flagship vessel in the series makes it easy to picture yourself sailing through tropical islands. Its design focuses on luxury and functionality, making it feel bigger and more luxurious than the numbers suggest.  

The wave-piercing bow, which expertly slices through waves, still provides a steady deck ideal for open-sea diving in marine-rich areas such as the Coral Triangle in Raja Ampat, Indonesia or Palawan in the Philippines.  

Nomad 101 | 30.34m | Gulf Craft

Heading up the list in the 30-metre category the Singapore Yachting Festival 2026, the 30.34-metre Nomad 101 is the flagship yacht in Gulf Craft’s Nomad range.

It features a tri-deck design that comfortably accommodates up to 10 guests. The classic, timeless exterior echoes the signature styling of the Nomad range (first introduced in 2015), while its recently updated interior design by Phantom Studio delivers a high-end yet eco-conscious palette throughout.  

The Nomad 101’s semi-displacement hull makes it well-suited for exploring long-range waters. Across its four decks, the yacht offers generous shaded lounging areas ideal for beating the island sun, while never neglecting those all-important ocean views.  

Azimut Seadeck 7 | 21.7m | Azimut Yachts

The Azimut Seadeck 7 is a new-generation, efficient yacht that uses a unique hybrid engine. This yacht, represented by Marine Italia Asia, plays its part in the call for sustainable yachting by cutting emissions by up to 40% annually. The Azimut Seadeck 7’s design allows for up to 12 hours of quiet, smooth travel, perfect for long-distance sailing in Thailand’s Andaman coast.  

Equipped with four cabins, family-friendly sailing is prioritised without sacrificing design. A standout feature is the Azimut Seadeck 7’s Fun Island, which drops directly into the water and comes complete with sunpads and hammocks.  

Sunreef 60 Eco | 18m | Sunreef Yachts  

Represented by Sunreef Yachts, another eco-focused yacht at the show is the Sunreef 60 Eco catamaran. With 68.6m² of eye-catching solar panels integrated into its exterior, it is one of the first yachts of its size to take this step.  

Moving beyond eco-branding, the Sunreef 60 Eco harnesses energy from solar and electric power, lowering emissions and generating enough power to be self-sufficient for extended periods and to power on-board appliances.  

Housing up to 10 guests in five sustainable yet fashion-forward interior cabins, the futuristic Sunreef Eco offers an environmentally friendly yet luxurious sailing experience for yachts. The Singapore Yacht Show is the ideal place to see this firsthand.

What the Singapore Yachting Festival 2026 says about yacht charter in Asia  

Based on the range of superyachts making their presence felt at the Singapore Yachting Festival 2026, it is clear that an Asia yacht charter is less based on outward extravagance, and more on features that suit the region.  

Clever designs and materials alike enable these vessels to reach emerging hotspots like Indonesia, Thailand, and the Philippines with ease, offering those on board the ultimate in both high-end enjoyment and wellness. Although the industry here is still comparatively youthful compared to other regions, the show has its thumb on Asia’s pulse, highlighting some of the best boats on offer in the area.  

Singapore’s role in the industry  

Despite not being the most well-known destination for leisure cruising, Singapore plays an integral part in the region’s expanding yacht industry, serving as a gateway to its celebrated islands and diving spots.  

As well as being a well-respected business hub ideal for networking, Singapore is the ideal base for luxury yachts (Asia) heading to Raja Ampat, Phuket, or Palawan, given that many of Asia’s marinas are not yet fully equipped to handle the largest superyachts.

The Singapore Yachting Festival 2026 highlights the very best of the onboard lifestyle for the Asia-Pacific, reflecting a growing market that is still evolving and in flux. And this is exactly what makes it so exciting to visit.
