CRN SHIPYARD LAUNCHES NEW CUSTOM LINE 128’...

Launched in Ancona on April 18th, 2006, “Sweet Anne Marie” is the third hull in CRN's planing series. The launch was attended by Mr. Lamberto Tacoli, Managing Director of the Shipyard, together with the owner's reps. The Ancona shipyard is going through an exceptional growth period, with 27 new boats currently contracted, or in the construction process. Sizes range from 29 to 72 meters, with 6 yachts being built from steel and aluminium above 54 meters in length.

“Sweet Anne Marie” is an elegant 40 meter yacht belonging to the Custom Line series, which has received two international awards. Last September it received the “European Yacht Trophies” from Yacht Magazine, as well as the “ShowBoats Awards 2004” for “Best New Semi-Production Series”.

The launch of this boat represents for the Ancona Shipyard another important success, but also an important celebration for all those who have contributed to its creation. The composite line is the result of a cooperation between the CRN technical team and the Studio Zuccon International Project.

The layout of the Custom Line includes three covered decks and an innovative garage for the tender with side openings. The 128' is capable of reaching 24 knots and will accomodate twelve guests and eight crew members.
