CRN, the historic shipyard and Ferretti Group brand, is building the fully custom CRN M/Y 142 yacht.

This all-aluminium megayacht was designed by the CRN Technical Office in partnership with Omega Architects, for the concept and exterior lines, and Massari Design for the interiors. The two studios' creative spark combined with CRN's passion and deep expertise is bringing to life a unique work, a blend of bespoke quality and elegant simplicity.

CRN M/Y 142 is the fruit of state-of-the-art research and development, which informs the design of even the subtlest construction detail. The CRN engineers have set great store by fuel efficiency, optimising the hull and appendages to reduce drag. Weight reduction has been a priority, using special light materials and an aluminium hull and superstructure.

The hull was positioned in early March, and construction is progressing at the Ancona yard. After the structural work and pre-fitting is completed throughout, the interior carpentry will begin, the engines will be installed, and preparations for the exterior painting will be made.

The new yacht's distinctive taut, harmonious, extremely elegant lines are beginning to emerge. At 52 metres long and 9 metres in the beam, with a streamlined low profile and near-vertical bow, she exudes a vibrant sporty personality.

The overall design creates a striking interplay between the majestic external areas and the palatial interiors. This exquisite equilibrium lends visual continuity to the indoor/outdoor experience. Large full-height windows add to the strong sense of space, in intimate touch with the sea. The 4-deck layout features 1 owner suite and 4 VIP cabins for up to 10 guests.

CRN is currently building another 3 bespoke yachts: the 62-metre CRN M/Y 138, the 72-metre CRN M/Y 139, and the 60-metre CRN M/Y 141.
