CRN

Full custom steel and aluminium yachts from 50 to 90 m, Ferretti Group.

CRN was founded in Ancona in 1963 by Sanzio Nicolini and became one of the great names in Italian metal yachts before being taken over by the Ferretti Group in 1999. The yard occupies a major site in the port of Ancona, with build halls up to 90 m.

Production is entirely bespoke, in steel and aluminium, from 50 to 90 m: each yacht is designed with an outside studio (Zuccon, Nuvolari Lenard, Omega) and an interior designer chosen by the owner. Recent yachts often exceed 60 m, with beach clubs and elaborate owner's decks.

Before you sign: a CRN takes three to four years and a team on the owner's side: surveyor, architect, lawyer. The financial backing of the Ferretti Group secures the milestone payments. The yard also refits its own yachts.
