Amalfi

Naples is one of the richest cities in the Mediterranean when it comes to history, culture and arts. This spectacular popular charter destination is well known for its exquisite gastronomic treats, rich italian culture, booming tourism and a lot, lot more. Your yacht charter vacation in Naples should most certainly include a half-day trip to the buried city of Pompeii, exploring the ruins of this very unique and important landmark.

After having explored the city of Naples, you charter yacht could take you further down to Amalfi – a scenic city famous for its 6th century Duomo, with a fascinating blend of culture and architecture.

The charter yacht of your choice could also take you along the coast of Positano. The best view ever of Positano and the incredible engineering genius of its architecture can be enjoyed from aboard a luxury yacht. You can enjoy a refreshing summer lunch under anchor with this magnificent backdrop. After lunch, go ashore and spend the afternoon exploring the myriad of streets and shops of this charming town. Another interesting place is Ravello, famous for its breathtaking views, natural beauty and ancient monuments in the gardens of Villa Cimbrone and Villa Rufolo.

Your Italian charter holiday around Naples would not be complete without a leisurely cruise to the world famous, jet set island of Capri. Both elegant and charming, Capri is a perfect place to relax, stroll the streets or simply visit one of the cafés and enjoy the “see and be seen” life that defines life on Capri. A taxi ride to Emperor Tiberius’ villa Jovis is also a “must do” while visiting this popular luxury yacht hub. Evening comes, you could enjoy a quiet drink aboard your luxury vessel, or perhaps visit one of the many wonderful restaurants to savour some wonderful dishes followed by an elegant nightclub after dinner.

Capri - La Grotta Azzurra - Blue Grotto

Another interesting place to visit is the Blue Grotto revealed in August 1826 by the German writer August Kopisch, who described its extraordinary beauty. Since then the Blue Grotto has become the emblem of the island of Capri. This enchanting cavern will amaze you by the blue reflection of the sea that illuminates it from inside.

Your charter itinerary could include a day with a leisurely breakfast aboard, refreshing swim and perhaps a chair lift / gondola ride from Anacapri to the top of the island where you could appreciate the spectacular views across the entire Bay of Naples and the Amalfi Coast. In the afternoon you could visit the beautiful island of Ischia with its steep mountains covered in lush, semi-tropical vegetation and hot mineral springs. You could also opt for the ultra-chic village of San Angelo on the south side of the island. Your evening will certainly be lively by taking a berth directly across from the boutiques and cafes that line the water.

Ponza

An overnight cruise aboard your preferred luxury charter yacht could take you to the island of Ponza, famed for its crystal clear waters. Stroll through the ancient cobbled streets where the local fishermen display their catch for the day and watch the village life bustling.

January 13, 2012

Navetta 43 super yacht Lady Trudy was designed and realized by the technical department of CRN in collaboration with the Zuccon International Project Studio that took care of the external lines and the partitioning of the interiors of this yacht built at the CRN shipyard of Ancona, where every phase of the productive process, the realization of the moulds as well as the lamination of the hull, up to its furnishing and decoration were checked. The interiors, the style, the furnishings and the décor were designed by the CRN design centre directly with the ship owner.

EXTERIORS

Lady Trudy yacht, like the Navetta 43 semi-custom line, distinguishes itself by large volumes and the larger outdoor area, such as the covered cockpit on the main deck and the upper deck, that open majestically on this “pearl effect” grey hull.

Navetta 43 Super Yacht Lady Trudy Exterior

Every cockpit is characterised by predominant colours: white and red for the main deck, blue and white for the upper deck and beige and red for the sun deck.

On board 43m luxury yacht Lady Trudy by CRN

The cockpit on the main deck is equipped with four armchairs with a wooden frame and a mocha coloured wicker back and a dark mahogany coffee table. The huge sofa at the stern is white and decorated with embroidered cushions with marine patterns from the colonial collection of Mastro Raphael.

Navetta 43 Lady Trudy Superyacht offering maximum comfort and relax

On the upper deck, the elliptical shaped dining table, that seats up to 12 people, is made of white glossy lacquered wood, and on the left of the boat there is a long buffet appliance unit with ad hoc doors and drawers that have the same stylistic features of the table and that is used to refrigerate drinks and heat food. The unit top is made of teak and glass. Towards the aft lies a large structural sofa that has a long sun bed in the central part, covered in striped light-blue and white fabric, while the sides are covered with a navy blue material. The cushions decorating it have white and blue patterns and tones.

Lady Trudy Superyacht offering a wide variety of water toys

Some structural modifications have been made to the sun deck of this stunning yacht. It has been elongated at the stern to make space for the touch-and-go helicopter landing pad, otherwise furnished with sun decks and coffee tables. This deck also includes a central living area with a large sofa and a coffee table as well as American cocktail bars under a retractable awning and a fly. Towards the bow there is a Jacuzzi and a large sun deck with two semi-circular sofas, each with a circular adjustable coffee table. The seat cushions are covered with beige fabric and the back cushions with white and red striped material with marine knots patterns. All the freestanding furniture on the sun deck is made of natural teak.

Luxurious Exterior on board Super Yacht Lady Trudy

INTERIORS

Among the peculiarities of the yacht Lady Trudy are certainly the interiors, which are finely furnished, representing a plunge into the American colonial sphere, with a touch of the romantic “Hampton style”, particularly loved by the ship owner, who has followed in detail all the phases of the designing and the furnishing together with the specifically dedicated CRN team.

Luxury motor yacht Lady Trudy - Main Saloon

The main features of the guest cabins are made of white ash wood while the construction details and the decorations are made of mahogany. Same wood is used for the crew quarters (dinette and cabins).

Dining Room on 43m Super Yacht Lady Trudy by CRN

Each of the four guest cabins, that are according to the ship owner’s desires, is characterized by a dominant colour that is purposely linked to an American locality of the North Atlantic coast: cabin “Newport” for the VIP cabin at the bow where yellow is the predominant colour, cabin “Cape Cod” on the right towards the stern where green is predominant, the guest cabin “Mystic” on the left towards the stern with twin beds and a foldaway bed, where everything is in red and the after cabin “Nantucket” on the left which is blue. The name itself was embroidered for every cabin on big cushions that decorate the beds.

Navetta 43 Super Yacht Lady Trudy - Galley

For this style, materials such as cotton and wrinkled linen characterize the decorations of all the interiors of the yacht. For instance, in the cabins there is a wide use of wrinkled material that gives an immediate feeling of softness. The headboards in the guest cabins are all covered with a Ralph Lauren decorative fabric with marine patterns and each cabin has a white cotton carpet with vertical strips that reflect the dominant colour of the cabin itself.

CRN luxury yacht Lady Trudy - Owner´s Suite

Lady Trudy Superyacht - Owner´s Suite Bathroom

Each cabin has its own bathroom with white ash slats and a shower covered with natural teak. The basin unit has a top made of charcoal grey natural porous “San Gaudenzio” stone.

There are two bathrooms, one for him with a shower and one for her with a bath, both covered in white ash and teak slats. The basins are made of San Gaudenzio stone while the taps are antique bronze colour, with a hammered effect.

Lady Trudy Superyacht - Crew Cabin

A distinctive feature of the Navetta 43 Lady Trudy and the entire CRN fleet is the terrace in the master cabin, furnished like a balcony with a coffee table and armchairs where one can have breakfast, enjoyable even while sailing.

In the study, situated before the owner’s suite, lies a large desk by the wall, made of mahogany with a top covered in brown leather. The large windows offer greater luminosity to the rooms. On the opposite side of the bulkhead there is a library and a built-in sofa bench, all made of white ash to contrast the rest of the room. The patterned fabrics of the cushions have the same cream and beige tones of the master cabin.

Another feature of this yacht’s interiors are the Persian sliding bay windows found in the dining room, in the lobby upper deck and in the master cabin creating a warm and intimate atmosphere, creating a pleasant “home” effect.

Yacht tender garage on Navetta 43 motor yacht Lady Trudy

The main hall of the main deck has an armchair made of natural wicker with white linen cushions from the American company Mc Guire and custom-made sofas in white linen keeping to the Colonial style, and a coffee table made of dark mahogany.
A central custom-made unit is found towards the stern of the living room and contains a built-in 46 inch TV.

Two libraries, predominantly in teal colour, furnish and separate the living room from the dining room with an electrical sliding door that has a “Venetian” pattern in white ash.

Super Yacht Lady Trudy - wheelehouse

The dining room, that leads on into the main hall, is very interesting and pleasant, with a designed idea for the dining table that stands on two pedestals and columns and on top which is a hole filled with sand and shells all covered by a glass top. The table chairs are of the same MC Guire brand.

The bow bulkhead is furnished with wooden frames with black and white photos of scenes from everyday life in the United States of the fifties.

Further on, immediately after the main lobby, on the left, is kitchen in white ash wood entirely designed on the American model including all the appliances, especially the cooker unit from the French company LA CORNUE.

On the upper deck there is another big hall with custom-made L-shaped sofas, covered with white linen, and a central coffee table, as well as a game table next to the sofa. In addition, there is a high peninsula table in the hall towards the bow, not very far from the unit that contains a 55 inch LED TV with an electronic rotating device.

Luxury yacht Lady Trudy - Captain´s Cabin

Through the lobby one can access the large full beam steering area with a separate radio room and a captain’s cabin.

Moreover, Lady Trudy is supported by an innovative, integrated entertainment system. An info and domotics system, called “myOlos”, has been developed through the partnership of the shipyard, Videoworks and Intel, to obtain on board functionality and a more user-friendly technology for the Clients of CRN. Through an iPod, this system manages and controls all the entertainment functions – including audio and video on demand – air-conditioning, on board monitoring, lighting and curtains.

On the lower deck, a garage on the starboard towards the stern with an electro-hydraulic shutter that holds a custom-made 5.80m NAUMATEC yacht tender and an engine room that precedes it, form the technical parts of the boat.

Lady Trudy is a masterpiece of design & made in Italy by CRN: the fusion of Italian style with American inspirations make this yacht very fascinating.

CRN & Riva with Christian Jankowski at Frieze Art Fair London

October 13, 2011

Two luxury yachting brands of the Ferretti Group, CRN Yachts and Riva, will play a central role in an installation by Berlin-based artist Christian Jankowski, at this year’s Frieze Art Fair 2011 which runs from the 13 – 16 October 2011. The Finest Art on Water, curated by Sarah McCrory, will be part of Frieze Projects, a series of special commissions which offer viewpoints that will elicit a shift in the viewer’s perception as they move through the fair.

Christian Jankowski with CRN & Riva at Frieze Art fair London

Christian Jankowski has collaborated with luxury yacht builder CRN, featuring the project of a 68 metre superyacht, whose exteriors and interiors lines are designed by Officina Italiana Design, and will be produced by the shipyard in the contemporary artwork. The Aquariva Cento, a limited edition boat, also designed by Officina Italiana Design, that is available as a tender for CRN superyachts and embodies the modern Riva style and elegance, will be sculpturally displayed as part of the installation, simultaneously challenging an art audience and yacht lovers.

Jankowski aims to engage directly with the idea of sales and exchange and the value of luxury goods. The Finest Art on Water is not only a yacht but also an art work; an exclusive, ready-made art piece that implicates, involves and engages the spectator.

Visitors to the installation will play the part of prospective buyers, as they view the interior and listen to the description of the boat. Jankowski’s work encompasses film, video and performance in which, consciously or subconsciously, viewers become active participants.

“Frieze has become one of the most influential events in the art world and it is exciting that CRN and Riva will have a presence there to engage with people in this unique way. Our yachts combine cutting edge technology with stunning designs, premium materials and the finest craftsmanship. This project with Christian Jankowski allows us to work in an environment which transcends a yacht from an object to a piece of art,” comments Luca Boldrini, CRN Brand Manager.

CRN specializes in the construction of fully customised mega yachts in steel and aluminium from 44 to 85 metres and has recently launched a revolutionary range of custom Dislpoen line of superyachts, combining the aesthetics of open boats with the comfort of displacement vessels.

The Aquariva Cento motor yacht, designed by Officina Italiana Design

The Aquariva Cento, designed by Officina Italiana Design, which will be displayed sculpturally at Frieze, is the ultimate in elegance and luxury and was commissioned as a special edition to celebrate the hundredth unit of the original Aquariva. The soft, elegant lines of the 33 foot Aquariva Cento exude tradition, whilst still managing to be highly innovative. The valuable, skilfully carpentered woods of the deck are mahogany with maple inlay and the innovative, electronically-controlled, two speed gearbox brings out all the passion and power of the two 380 horsepower Yanmar engines, resulting in an exceptional performance.

Founded in 1842 in Sarnico, Riva is the oldest shipyard in the world never to have interrupted production and is protected by the Italian Fine Arts Society. The original quality and artisan care have been maintained over the years, to which innovation, elegance, style and design have been added.

The history of CRN is a story full of successes, which have been accumulating right from the beginning. Set up by Sanzio Nicolini in 1963, the shipyard immediately established itself in a market which targeted a very selected clientele. This has been the guiding principle behind CRN right from the outset and has earned it a position among the top world builders of luxury mega yachts in association with important designers who helped establish the brand internationally.

Riva and CRN have a strong history of working together, dating back more than 40 years. Now the two brands have a collaboration to produce a new line of megayachts measuring more than 50 metres.

Frieze Art Fair: 13 – 16 October 2011

Frieze Art Fair takes place every October in Regent’s Park, London. The fair showcases new and established artists to an international audience.

Christian Jankowski
The work of Christian Jankowski is a performance, which engages often unsuspecting collaborators to innocently collude with him, making them ‘co-authors’ of the final result, who often (sometimes inadvertently) participate in the very conceptualisation of the work. The collaborative nature of Jankowski’s practice is paramount, as each participant unwittingly contributes his or her own texture. With Jankowski, there is as much emphasis on the journey as the destination, and the risks and chances inherent in his collaborations ultimately give surprising shape to the final works. The product of a generation that grew up with the ubiquity of film and television, its inherently populist influence is evident throughout Jankowski’s work. Christian Jankowski lives and works in Berlin and is represented by the Lisson Gallery London.
