CNB Yachts: The Art of Timeless Bluewater Mastery

Crafting Offshore Legends Since 1987

Founded in France and now part of the Solaris Group, CNB Yachts has redefined luxury offshore sailing for over 35 years, blending Mediterranean elegance with cutting-edge naval architecture. Operating from a sprawling 100,000 sqm shipyard with 44,000 sqm of covered facilities and 300 meters of deep-water quays, CNB has launched over 90 vessels, ranging from aluminum superyachts to composite performance cruisers, now sailing across the globe.

Core Values & Innovations

  1. Design Philosophy:
    CNB’s yachts are instantly recognizable for their open-plan interiors that merge indoor and outdoor spaces, creating a seamless connection to the sea. The brand’s signature “timeless” aesthetic balances classic lines with modern performance, as seen in the CNB 78#3, a 24-meter offshore cruiser designed for both speed and comfort.
  2. Engineering Excellence:
    • Material Versatility: Expertise in aluminum and composite construction ensures durability and lightweight efficiency.
    • In-House Design Office: A team of 40+ engineers and naval architects oversees projects from concept to sea trials, integrating innovations like hybrid propulsion and advanced rigging systems.
  3. Flagship Models:
    • CNB 62 (2025 Launch): A 19-meter performance cruiser with expanded glazing for natural light, upgraded interiors, and enhanced sailing dynamics.
    • CNB 76: A 23-meter bluewater yacht featuring a convertible swim platform, modular cabins, and Volvo Penta IPS drives for fuel efficiency.
  4. Sustainability & Craftsmanship:
    As part of the Solaris Group, CNB leverages 50 years of shipbuilding heritage to adopt eco-conscious practices, including recyclable composites and energy-efficient systems. The shipyard’s ultra-modern woodwork shop ensures precision in teak joinery and bespoke interiors.
