CRN is a Ferretti Group yard from Ancona, Italy, building large semi-custom and fully custom motor yachts in steel and aluminium since 1963. The result is a mature product with genuine Italian design sensibility and structural longevity suited to extended bluewater passages. Jamaica position in the Greater Antilles makes it an excellent base for a CRN charter, with deep-water harbors capable of handling vessels well above 50 metres and a cruising ground that balances offshore crossings with sheltered coastal anchorages. Four CRN yachts are available for charter in Jamaican waters, tending toward the larger end of the spectrum and carrying between six and eight guest staterooms, beach club terraces and fold-out garage platforms for watersports equipment. A full crew of twelve or more ensures every aspect of the week is managed with precision. Weekly rates for CRN charters in the Caribbean range from approximately 80,000 to 250,000 euros per week, reflecting the scale and specification of these vessels. The advance provisioning allowance, typically around 30 percent of the base rate, covers fuel, food, berthing and drinks throughout the week. High season falls between December and April, coinciding with peak Caribbean sailing weather and settled trade winds. Booking three to six months ahead secures preferred dates at the best rates. Jamaica rewards the range and endurance a CRN provides, and a full island circumnavigation is achievable across a standard seven-night charter, calling at Montego Bay, Ocho Rios, Port Antonio and the quieter south coast anchorages before returning west.
