CRN, originally established in Ancona, Italy, in 1963 under the acronym "Costruzioni e Riparazioni Navali," has an illustrious legacy of crafting opulent luxury yachts. Notably, in the 1980s, they gained prominence among Greek and Middle Eastern royal clientele. As leaders in the steel and aluminum industry, CRN marked a significant milestone in 1986 with the launch of their first over-60m creation, Il Vagabondo, followed by the 68-meter Awal a year later. In the early 2000s, following an acquisition by the Ferretti Group, CRN expanded into composite materials, enabling them to produce up to 15 superyachts annually and increase their production capacity.
In 2010, CRN made headlines by launching the 236-foot (72-meter) Azteca, breaking their own records. They repeated this feat in 2013 with the introduction of the 262-foot (80-meter) Chopi Chopi, still holding the title as the largest CRN-built superyacht. CRN's remarkable achievements and highly sought-after launches have solidified their reputation in the charter and sales market. Their commitment to fulfilling owners' specifications and collaborating with elite designers underscores their dedication to creating unique, one-of-a-kind masterpieces. Known for their inventive designs, technological innovation, and distinctive style, CRN-built yachts continue to captivate audiences worldwide.
