Sanlorenzo is proud to announce the issuance of the world's first "Digital Yachting" certification by RINA. This certification, awarded to the sixth unit of the SP110 line, marks a new chapter in the company's ongoing commitment to innovation and digital transformation within the yachting industry.
In collaboration with D.gree, a brand of SailADV, and under the supervision of RINA, Sanlorenzo aims to enhance the performance, safety, and user experience of its yachts by utilizing advanced digitalization technologies. The company has developed intuitive monitoring and supervision solutions for customers, managers, technicians, captains, and crew members alike.
The H-Log monitoring system installed on board collects more than 800 parameters, including functional states, onboard data, and alarms, optimizing safety, efficiency, comfort, and overall performance. Supported by the H-System platform, the yacht's status becomes accessible both locally and remotely across various devices, offering complete supervision.
Real-time visualization and remote monitoring allow for rapid decision-making and scenario analysis based on real data, minimizing unexpected events and maximizing performance and safety.
"We are extremely proud to receive the RINA Digital Yachting certification for the H-Log system installed on our units," stated Tommaso Vincenzi, President of the Yacht Business Unit. "This confirms the high level of digitalization we have achieved through continuous investment in innovation. It certifies our commitment to pushing the boundaries of what is possible for our customers in the yachting world."
RINA's new Digital Yacht Class Notation aims to certify onboard systems that enable monitoring and control of both essential and non-essential systems, through data management for remote analysis. This requires rigorous design and testing to ensure maximum safety and reliability.
The certification process includes requirements such as:
- Computer-Based Systems (CBS): Simplified hardware and software requirements for yachts with a gross tonnage under 500 GT
- Data Shore Transfer (ADC): Specifications for secure data transfer between the yacht and shore
- Cyber Safety: Standards to protect onboard digital systems from cyber threats for yachts with SL > 500 GT
The SP110 certification is a testament to Sanlorenzo's forward-thinking approach and a significant step toward setting new standards for digital yachting on a global scale.
