AZZURRA II

AZZURRA II is a 47.50-metre steel motor yacht built by CRN Yachts in 1988 and refitted in 2019, registered in Palau. Her exterior was designed by Gerhard Gilgenast and her interior by Paola D. Smith and Associates, giving her a profile that reflects the considered craftsmanship of Italian commercial shipbuilding from that era. At 482 gross tonnes on a semi-displacement steel hull, she is a substantial vessel with the mass and structural integrity that comes with CRN's construction philosophy.

AZZURRA II accommodates 12 guests across five cabins with a crew of 12, a one-to-one ratio that enables attentive, responsive service throughout a charter. Her declared operating regions span the western and central Mediterranean, including Sardinia, Corsica, France, the French Riviera, Monaco, and Italy. She is well suited to full-complement groups — families, social parties, or corporate charters — who want space, a high crew presence, and a classic Italian motor yacht character. She is not ideally suited to guests with a strong preference for contemporary interiors, or those whose itinerary requires high transit speeds or extended offshore range in a single leg.

CRN vessels of this period were built to endure, and the 2019 refit will have addressed the critical systems and interior presentation without altering the fundamental character of the hull. Her MTU twin-engine installation produces a cruise speed of 14 knots, a maximum of 17 knots, and a declared range of 6,000 nautical miles — a figure that reflects both her 118,000-litre fuel capacity and the efficiency inherent in her displacement form.

The water sports package aboard AZZURRA II is extensive and high-energy: two Yamaha VXS-100 waverunners, a Yamaha Superjet stand-up jet ski, three kayaks, wakeboards, water-skis, a banana, a doughnut, an inflatable trampoline, a kite surfer, fishing gear, beach games, and snorkelling equipment. Fixed amenities include a deck jacuzzi, gym, satellite TV, Wi-Fi, and both underway and at-anchor stabilisers. This charter yacht provides a robust package for guests who spend their days actively on the water.
