Mid-2000s Ancona craft
Maraya was launched by CRN in 2007, during a productive stretch that saw the yard refine its 54 metre work. She was built in steel and aluminium to full-custom order for her owner. The project drew on decades of Ancona shipbuilding knowledge going back to 1963. She reflects the confident, understated house style of the period. She arrived as a graceful, well-mannered cruiser of her generation.
The commission favoured comfort and easy elegance over any kind of spectacle, which shaped the whole project. CRN engineered a dependable hull and let its trusted design studios shape a genuinely welcoming yacht for the owner. The build showed the yard's steady, experienced hand at this size in the years before its larger flagships arrived. Maraya became a well-regarded and much-loved cruiser of her generation, admired for her balance and her calm. Everything about her quietly points toward long, relaxed and unhurried time spent out on the water.
Zuccon's modern Italian lines
Studio Zuccon International Project gave Maraya clean, modern lines that still look genuinely composed today. The profile is balanced and unfussy, with careful proportions that flatter her length beautifully. Zuccon's long collaboration with CRN shows clearly in the well-resolved volumes. She has an easy, timeless presence at anchor in almost any bay. Her understated styling has aged far better than many of her contemporaries.
The exterior was drawn to support genuinely relaxed outdoor living across each of her generous decks. Sheltered lounges and open sun areas give guests a real choice of setting through the whole day. The styling keeps everything calm and inviting from the bow right through to the stern. She wears her years very lightly and still looks genuinely current beside newer arrivals. The careful proportions make her feel noticeably larger and more generous than her modest length suggests.

Claude Missir's warm interiors
Inside, the designer Claude Missir created warm, comfortable interiors built squarely for real living aboard. The rooms favour rich, tactile materials and a welcoming, residential feel that runs throughout the yacht. The considered layout carries up to twelve guests in relaxed and genuinely easy comfort. It is an interior made for long, unhurried cruises through fine Mediterranean weather. Every single space was drawn to feel like a proper home at sea for its owner.
The main social spaces open naturally onto the exterior decks for long, easy days at anchor. The owner's private accommodation offers good seclusion and generous, flattering natural light. Fine detailing throughout the whole yacht reflects careful and considered Italian craft at every turn. The overall mood is settled and unhurried across every single part of the yacht. She is a yacht built firmly around real comfort in place of showmanship.
Reliable Mediterranean cruising
Maraya rides on a steel hull with an aluminium superstructure, carefully engineered by CRN for comfort. Her machinery was specified for dependable Mediterranean cruising over long summer seasons. The considered naval architecture favours a steady, easy motion in a seaway. She is built for relaxed passage-making across a long and unhurried summer. She asks little of her owner beyond a simple desire to enjoy the sea.
For an owner that dependable reliability means simple, enjoyable and low-drama ownership. Systems were sensibly arranged for straightforward operation and easy maintenance in port. The clever layout keeps tenders and water toys well clear of the guest areas. She is an undemanding yacht to run and a genuine pleasure to enjoy. Her manageable size keeps running costs and complexity very comfortably in check.
Who she suits
Maraya suits an owner who simply wants graceful, comfortable cruising without any excess or fuss. Her warm, welcoming interior and calm exterior lines together make her genuinely easy to love. Up to twelve guests travel in relaxed and easy comfort across her well-planned decks. She is well matched to long, slow and sun-filled Mediterranean summers. She rewards an owner who quietly values ease and comfort in place of spectacle.
She also appeals to buyers seeking a well-built CRN at a genuinely approachable size. Her modern Zuccon exterior gives her real and lasting appeal on the water. She represents solid, honest value from the yard's productive mid-2000s work. She remains an easy and sensible yacht to recommend at her length. For a buyer she offers genuine full-custom pedigree at a very reasonable price.

Сильные стороны и что учесть
Сильные стороны
- A genuine working charter yacht, not a shelved assetUnlike many yachts of her generation, Maraya is actively marketed and bookable, with more than 450 square metres of external space across five deck areas and a full charter crew, and she has been kept current with a 2018 refit.
- Real range for genuine cruisingA 120,000 litre fuel capacity backs a cruising range reported as high as 4,200 nautical miles, well beyond a single-season coastal charter boat.
На что обратить внимание
- Crew and guest figures do not agree across brokersCrew is given as 10, 13 or 15 depending on the listing, and the build/launch year itself is given as both 2007 and 2008. None of these are reconciled here; the spread is typical of a yacht marketed through several competing charter brokers rather than a single shipyard record.
- Owner identity is single-sourcedThe Mohammed Abu-Ghazaleh attribution traces to one outlet (SuperYachtFan); no independent broker listing or news report checked corroborates it.
