What this builder is
Bluegame entered yachting in 2004 with boats that refused categorisation — part walkaround, part open, part day-cruiser — conceived by Luca Santella, an architect and two-time Olympic sailor, with hulls by naval architect Lou Codega. Since 2018 it has been part of the Sanlorenzo group, building at Ameglia near La Spezia and deliberately limiting units per model while adding ranges: the BG series (BG42, BG54, BG64, BG74), the BGX crossovers (BGX63, BGX73, BGX83 with Lissoni & Partners interiors), the BGM75 motor catamaran and the BGF45, a foil-assisted catamaran born of the America's Cup hydrogen chase boat BGH. Every model page publishes a full table — LOA and CE hull length, beam, draft at full load, Volvo Penta IPS engine options, half- and full-load displacement, tankage, speeds with a ±5% caveat, passengers and berths.
Who sails them
Bluegame owners — 'Bluegamers' in the brand's own word — are experienced yachtsmen who want closeness to the sea and a boat they can run themselves, with 360° cockpits, full-beam owner's cabins and layouts customised at the yard; the BGX and BGM ranges add crew space and long-range volume for owners stepping up from the BG series.
Signature models
The BG54 and BG74 define the walkaround range (the 74 is 'the only open of this size', with the BG64 closing the gap between them), the BGX73 is the owner-centric crossover, the BGM75 'cannot be called a catamaran' for its monohull proportions, and the BGF45 brings the foil technology of the BGH chase boat to a 45-foot yacht.
Strengths
Bluegame is known for Lou Codega's seaworthy hulls, multipurpose layouts with 360° cockpits and exceptional volume for the length, Volvo Penta IPS pod propulsion across the range, a deliberately limited production run per model, and — with the BGF45 — foil assistance that the site credits with up to 30 per cent lower fuel consumption.
Considerations
Displacements and speeds are quoted ±5 per cent, draft is at full load, engine horsepower is printed only for some options (the BG64 and BGX73 tables give kW alone), brochures sit behind a request form, and the site resets a burst of requests, so figures should be re-read from the current page before purchase.

History
Bluegame entered yachting in 2004 with unconventional, multipurpose boats that defied categorisation, born from the vision of Luca Santella -- a sailor who competed at the 1988 and 1992 Olympics before turning to yacht design -- who teamed up with the naval architect Lou Codega on hulls built for stability and seaworthiness. In 2018 Bluegame became part of the Sanlorenzo Group, a change of paradigm that opened new horizons while the brand kept its own disruptive character: the BG range of 2018 was the new beginning, the BGX 'sea crossover' followed in 2019, the BGM opened a parallel segment in 2023, and the BGF brought foiling multihulls in 2025.
