CRN yachts from Ancona combine Italian engineering with a scale and structural ambition that few other production yards match. The Ferretti Group yard specialises in large semi-custom motor yachts in the 40-to-65-metre range, building on a hull platform that has been developed over decades of offshore use. For Andros Island in the Bahamas, a destination defined by its wall diving, its bonefish flats and its productive sport fishing, a CRN provides both the capability to reach the destination reliably and the volume and crew capacity to make the stay memorable.
Four CRN yachts operate across Bahamas and Caribbean waters, each an individual build within the yard’s semi-custom framework. These are high-volume vessels with generous deck space, powerful tender garages and experienced crew complements of eight to fourteen. The beam typical of a CRN in this size range means interior spaces feel genuinely residential, with full-beam master suites and guest cabins that set aside space rather than optimise it.
Charter rates for CRN yachts in this region run from approximately 100,000 to 250,000 euros per week before expenses. The advance provisioning allowance of around thirty percent covers fuel, food, drinks, berthing and local fees. High season runs December through April with significant premium pricing over Christmas and New Year.
From Andros, the CRN’s range opens Nassau and the northern Exumas as day passages while the island itself provides a full week of activity. Fresh Creek is the barrier reef base. Nicholl’s Town provides the northern anchorage. Mangrove Cay in the South Bight offers flat-water days. Behring Point opens the western bonefish flats. Congo Town near the southern tip adds local character to close out the week.
