CRN is expected to participate in this year’s Hainan Rendez-Vous for the first time, with a stand in the ‘Superyachts’ area. CRN, brand of the Ferretti Group, specialises in the building of fully-customised superyachts, made of steel and aluminium and varying in size from 40 and 90 metres. The event will be held in Hainan’s Sanya, running from March 27 to 30, 2014.
Now in its fifth year, China Rendez-Vous is an opportunity for CRN to showcase the brand’s heritage through some unique examples of design and ‘Made in Italy’ to the emerging Chinese market. In January, CRN signed its first Letter of Intent for 2014 with a Chinese Client for a 68 metre megayacht, which will be the biggest vessel built for China by CRN and the Ferretti Group.
Lamberto Tacoli, Chairman and CEO of CRN, said: “Asia-Pacific, especially China, is a central area in our growth strategy. The participation of CRN at the China Rendez-Vous Show highlights our future plans to extend in the area. In fact, China is one of the markets that has shown wide margins for development in the mid to long-term and is destined to further expand in the coming years. This is reinforced in the recent signing of the LOI for the 68 metre CRN megayacht which we and the entire Ferretti Group take pride in.”
Currently six CRN vessels are being built: namely four steel and aluminium megaychts – CRN 131 74m (designed by Zuccon International Project), CRN 132 73m (designed by Omega Architects), CRN 133 61m (designed by Francesco Paszkowski Design) and CRN 134 55m (designed by Nuvolari & Lenard). In addition to these vessels, another maxiyacht of the Ferretti Custom Line, the CL 124’ in composite, and the Riva 122’ superyacht Mythos made of aluminium will be added.
