Built at the Ferretti Group Superyacht Yard in Ancona, this full-displacement steel and aluminum yacht was crafted around a brief that prioritized sustainability, bespoke detailing, and a distinct visual identity. Her delivery marks a major 2025 milestone for the Ancona-based shipyard.
Originally known as Project Maranello, Amor a Vida reflects a close collaboration between CRN and Nuvolari Lenard, who handled both the exterior and interior design. Naval architecture was developed in-house at CRN, while Moran Yacht & Ship provided full project management, guiding the build from contract to handover.
Designing an Eco-Conscious Flagship
From the outset, the brief called for a custom yacht with strong environmental values. Amor a Vida is equipped with a hybrid diesel-electric propulsion system designed to reduce fuel consumption and enhance onboard comfort. A heat recovery system further supports the eco-friendly mission, channeling thermal energy from generators into hot water systems that service the yacht’s pools, plumbing, and heating.
Externally, the yacht features taut, fluid lines and a strong profile defined by aerodynamic styling and sculpted proportions. Her hull is painted white, paired with a contrasting aluminum superstructure, and she spans four decks with a beam of 11.8 meters and a gross tonnage of 1,450 GT.
Life On Board Amor à Vida
On board, Amor a Vida accommodates up to 12 guests across seven suites, with additional space for 17 crew in nine crew cabins including a captain’s suite. Nuvolari Lenard’s interior design remains under wraps, but is said to channel refined elegance in a layout tailored specifically to the owner’s lifestyle.
A full beach club, gym, deck jacuzzi, and large sun deck provide expansive areas for relaxation and entertainment. Other notabel features onboard the motor yacht include underwater lights, stabilizers for both cruising and at-anchor comfort, a swimming platform, and a dedicated tender garage.
A Milestone for CRN and Moran
The delivery follows a carefully phased build timeline, beginning with the contract signing in October 2021. Her keel was laid in May 2022 in Marghera, Venice, and her hull was transferred to Ancona in May 2023 for outfitting. She was launched in January 2025 and completed sea trials in the months leading up to delivery in May.
The yacht has already gained recognition with a nomination in the 2025 Yacht Style Awards under the 60-70m category.
What’s Next for CRN: A Look at Upcoming Projects
With Amor a Vida now delivered, CRN is turning its attention to a trio of custom yachts currently in build, each reinforcing the shipyard’s focus on eco-conscious engineering and tailored design. Set for delivery in 2027, the 68m CRN C146 is another collaboration with Nuvolari Lenard, whose design work once again shapes both the interior and exterior. Built around a 1,450 GT platform with a beam of 11.5 meters, the yacht features a hybrid propulsion system and energy recovery technologies similar to those seen aboard Amor a Vida.
Penned by Andrea Vallicelli with naval architecture by Ferretti Group Engineering, CRN 144 is the largest of the upcoming fleet at 2,700 GT. She pairs imposing dimensions with twin Caterpillar 3516E engines and is expected to offer extensive volume for guest and crew comfort.
Meanwhile, Project Thunderball brings a different tone to the fleet as a 70m expedition-style superyacht focused on long-range cruising and regatta support. Designed by Vripack with interiors by Nauta Design, her low-profile silhouette and traditional bow are inspired by classic sailing yachts.
Built over five decks with a 1,100 GT volume, the yacht includes energy-saving systems such as peak shaving and thermal recovery, while the interior has been carefully shaped to balance comfort with a sense of understated luxury. Up to 12 guests will be hosted in six suites, supported by a crew of 15.
Together, these upcoming builds underscore CRN’s evolving approach to bespoke yacht construction, where technical innovation, environmental responsibility, and close owner collaboration come together—just as they did in the creation and delivery of Amor a Vida.
