CRN, part of the Ferretti Group and based in Ancona on Italy’s Adriatic coast, builds fully custom steel and aluminium motor yachts from approximately 40 to over 90 metres. Each project is developed from first principles, resulting in a fleet of distinctive vessels where no two share an identical hull form or interior arrangement. Charter a CRN from St Vincent and you access a vessel of genuine Italian individuality at the start of one of the Caribbean’s finest charter circuits.nnCRN’s construction philosophy favours structural robustness suited to Atlantic crossings and long-range cruising. Steel hulls on the larger builds provide the strength needed for exposed offshore passages, while aluminium construction on mid-range vessels reduces displacement for better performance in lighter conditions. Interior volumes are generous, with Italian design studios producing arrangements from classical elegance to bold contemporary in response to each owner’s brief.nnWeekly charter rates for CRN yachts near St Vincent typically run from approximately 70,000 to 200,000 euros depending on vessel size and specification. An advance provisioning allowance of roughly 30 percent covers fuel, provisions, berthing and crew gratuity. Caribbean peak season from December through April is when CRN’s Atlantic-capable hulls are at their most comfortable, with steady trade winds and reliable Caribbean sunshine.nnSt Vincent’s Blue Lagoon Marina provides excellent provisioning and fuel facilities for a CRN departure. The southward Grenadines circuit through Bequia, Mustique, Canouan and Tobago Cays unfolds across a week-long itinerary well suited to a CRN’s capability and scale.
