CRN has launched its hull No. 134, a 55-metre megayacht that stands out for her very strong, unmistakable personality, according to the Italian shipbuilder.
The 55-m Atlante was launched at its yard in Ancona on May 9.
The yacht is the outcome of the outstanding job performed by design firm Nuvolari Lenard, which pencilled her outer lines, and CRN’s Engineering Department, which was in charge of naval engineering.
Nuvolari Lenardi had already successfully co-operated with the shipyard on several megayachts, including 43-m Magnifica, 46-m Clarena and Saramou, and 72-m Azteca.
“Launching a new yacht is always a moment of great pride for the entire shipyard as emotions go hand in hand with the satisfaction of knowing that each and every one of our products is going to represent our brand and ‘Made-in-Italy’ yachting across the world’s seas,” says CRN Chairman and CEO Lamberto Tacoli.
The Atlante is an extraordinary jewel – a very innovative one – we can truly be proud of. We are deeply grateful to the owner for choosing us to build such an extraordinary yacht; to the design firm Nuvolari Lenard, that through the Atlante have once more confirmed their incredible creativity; and to all CRN’s workers and subcontractors who were involved in this project from its very beginning to its final completion".
Entirely built in Ancona, this yacht boasts a purposely strong stylistic identity, which draws inspiration from some elements typical of military crafts: square shapes, sharp lines, and innovative, sophisticated design solutions.
The Atlante is 55 m long and has a 10.20-m beam, with five decks that feature strikingly original solutions.
Dan Lenard comments: “We conceived and created this new yacht together with CRN following the requirements of the owner. The outer lines have been developed having in mind a specific final look - aggressive, but at the same time very proportionate. Seen in her entirety, this is a high-impact yacht, whose determined military look becomes soft on the sea. This is why we found some original solutions, such as a non-traditional bow and areas entirely devoted to guests, like the side doors of the main deck that, once the tenders have been launched, can be exploited to the fullest".
The superyacht is equipped with two 1,230 KW@1800 RPM Caterpillar engines that push her to a maximum speed of 15 knots and a cruising speed of 14 knots.
The motor yacht will now undergo all final fitting-out activities and technical trials before leaving port and cruising in international waters.
Part of the Ferretti Group, CRN specialises in the design and construction of fully-custom, steel and aluminium megayachts up to 90 m in length.
