Following up on the delivery of Emerald Star, the first of a new 43-meter fiberglass series, CRN handed over Hana, a yacht intended for long-range family cruising, last fall.
Similar to Emerald Star, the 141-foot yacht was designed by CRN’s in-house team and Zuccon International Project. But the owner tapped Claude Missir Agency for the interior, a firm that previously collaborated with CRN on the 54-meter (178-foot) Maraya.
Where as Maraya featured abundant use of dark woods offset with white and other light-tone furnishings, Hana is highlighted by an appealingly light, linear decor. Tanganyika, a pale wood, covers walls on all decks, and abundant colors ranging from aquamarine and turquoise to gold and orange punctuate furnishings. As you can see in the photo above, there’s even a cherrywood sole with maple inlays underfoot in the saloon, further distinguishing the semicustom megayacht. And if you look at the forward center portion of the room, a cabinet divides the saloon from the dining area. It also holds a 42-inch plasma TV, with an interesting twist, literally: The TV can pivot 180 degrees to face either room when raised from the cabinet.
Hana has other unexpected touches, too. One I can imagine the owner putting to good use is a custom lounge in the master bath. It’s tucked to starboard in the double-entry room–and that double-door setup is yet another item most megayachts, especially in this size range, don’t feature.
Then there’s the skylounge. With panoramic views, it contains the usual relaxation area, though located to starboard instead of port. (Picture nearly every other megayacht’s skylounge, and the chairs and couches are grouped to port, in front of a TV on the forward bulkhead.) The area to port contains the room’s real eye-catcher, the bar you see above. The linear look lends it almost artwork status in the room, and it’s complete with a flip-up liquor display designed by Claude Missir Agency.
Not everything about Hana breaks with tradition or with what Emerald Star established as the 43-meter series’ signatures, however. The five guest staterooms—a VIP (below), three doubles, and one twin, with a Pullman–are distinguished from one another through the use of color, too, such as gray and sky blue. Each color was chosen to please specific members of the owner’s family. Lines, squares, and circles are used in bedspreads and artwork, harking back to the linear, unfussy decor.
Just like Emerald Star, Hana contains a gym in the lazarette, accessible from the aft deck and from inside the yacht. When the stern hatch opens, the gym benefits from a tremendous view, thanks to sliding glass doors. And back on the main deck, the master suite, located fully forward, has a balcony where a small table and chairs can be set up at anchorage.
When Hana is out cruising, she hits a reported 13-knot cruise and 15.5-knot top speed, thanks to twin Caterpillar C32s. Being a member of the Ferretti Group, CRN also outfitted her with Mitsubishi ARG stabilizers, equipment other Group builds contain. ARG, which stands for Anti-Rolling Gyros, is not a fin system; rather, it’s similar to a spinning gyroscope, in that a spinning flywheel mounted on a gimbal produces force to counter the megayacht’s roll motion, reportedly damping it by upwards of 50 percent. Hana also carries two PWCs (stowed on the bow), a Castoldi jet tender (stowed in the garage), and an Arimar tender (stowed in a hydraulically opening bow compartment).
Hana is available for charter in the Red Sea this winter and the Med next summer, at a rate of €150,000 (approximately $203,000) per week.
