Italy’s CRN has signed a contract for the construction of a 50-m Superconero. The mega yacht, which been developed by CRN Engineering in co-operation with design firm Zuccon International Project, is a steel and aluminium 50-m-long and 9-m-wide displacement yacht falling within the 500 GRT class. 

The 50 m Superconero will include systems and solutions developed by CRN such as a balcony that can be enjoyed while cruising, an open terrace to relax when at anchor, an aft beach club and - a true feather in the cap of CRN’s naval engineering expertise - a tender bay, which for the first time ever turns a technical room into a magnificent area to host guests: a spacious, airy natural pool that allows guests to enjoy life on board in total freedom.

The Superconero, together with the Expedition and the Dislopen Special Edition, belong to a line of 50-m semi-custom yachts developed by CRN in cooperation with Zuccon International Project in order to meet the needs of an increasingly diversified market. 

These are three completely different projects which, however, share CRN’s DNA and reinterpret the shipyard’s must-haves through constantly innovative solutions.

Lamberto Tacoli, CRN’s Chairman and CEO, says: “It is difficult to understand how the sale of a 50-m yacht can mean more than that of larger vessels, but this is exactly what we are currently feeling at CRN. The Superconero line and the 50-m projects we have conceived over the last few years with Zuccon International Project will enable CRN to offer world-class and high-quality, flawlessly finished yachts, also thanks to the experience the shipyard has gained on previously built 70-m and 80-m vessels. I am sure our customers will appreciate these new lines and everything they hold within".

The 50-m Superconero will be built in parallel with other yachts currently under construction: the 55-m Atlante, which was recently launched, the 46-m Eight, the first refit in CRN’s history, the 74-m CRN 131, and the 77-m CRN 135.

CRN, which was established in 1963 in Ancona, specialises in the design and construction of fully custom, steel and aluminium megayachts up to 90 m in length. It is part of the Ferretti Group, a leader in the design, construction and sale of motor yachts and pleasure vessels, with a portfolio of prestigious brands that include Ferretti Yachts, Riva, Pershing, Itama, Mochi Craft, and Custom Line.
