CRN is an Italian yard from Ancona, on the Adriatic coast, and we list 10 of its motor yachts for charter. This page ranks all ten, from 131 to 178 feet (40 to 54 metres). The count runs from #10, the smallest of the ten, up to #1, the biggest, by the length on each yacht’s listing. Euro-priced yachts start from €84,000 per week; the one priced in dollars, AZUL V, starts from $155,000 per week.
Eight of the ten list Greece among their cruising areas, several of them alongside Turkey, Croatia, Italy or the French Riviera. TITIAN PEARL charters on the French Riviera, in Sardinia and the Balearics, and AZUL V is based in Langkawi and cruises Southeast Asia.
CRN in brief
Sanzio Nicolini founded CRN in Ancona in 1963; the letters stand for Costruzioni e Riparazioni Navali. The yard joined the Ferretti Group in 1999 and has launched more than 115 yachts. It builds custom yachts in steel and aluminium, or all-aluminium, up to 95 metres. The 80 metre CHOPI CHOPI, launched in Ancona in January 2013, was the largest yacht in CRN’s history when she launched; she is not in our charter list.
The ten here were built between 1981 and 2013 and have all been refitted since. Most of the ten have a full-beam master suite, and on MARAYA, PALATIAL and HANA it opens onto its own balcony or terrace. Five of the ten name Zuccon (Zuccon International Project) as designer. By length, the six smallest fall in the 40-metre class (115 to 145 ft) and the four biggest in the 50-metre class; for other yachts of the same size, see our 40-metre class guide and our 50-metre class guide, where MARAYA also appears.

How they differ: BUNKER, PARADISE and ARIELA list top speeds of 22 knots, against 12 to 16.5 knots on the others; cruising speeds vary, so ask us for the figure on the yacht you like. MARAYA lists approval as an RYA water sports centre, and HANA and TITIAN PEARL list RYA jet ski training. BUNKER’s listing sets her 12 guests as 10 adults and 2 children; ask us how that fits your group.

What a CRN charter costs
Among the ten, the euro-priced yachts start from €84,000 per week (SOMETHING COOL), up to a starting rate of €300,000 per week (MARAYA); most start between €115,000 per week and €160,000 per week. AZUL V in Southeast Asia is priced in dollars, from $155,000 per week. A range on a listing can reflect low and high season; ask us which rate applies to your dates. All ten charter on plus-expenses terms: the rate covers the yacht and her crew, and on top of it you pay an advance provisioning allowance (APA), a deposit that covers running costs such as fuel and food during the week. The APA share varies by yacht, and a crew tip is not included, so ask us for the full terms, including any taxes, on the yacht you like.
For the full breakdown, see how much a yacht charter costs, and for the CRNs we list with their current rates, the CRN Ancona rate list, which covers eight of the ten.
Tell us your dates, where you want to cruise and how many are in your group, and we will check which of these CRNs is free and send you a shortlist.
