The second Custom Line 128 shows CRN’s drive to redefine.

In Xs of Expectation

Article Specs  
Custom Line 128
The young couple’s contemporary tastes are evident in their personal spaces, where bright colors and cherry and briar veneers give a new slant to a traditional interior. Vibrant red and sky blue dominate the owner’s suite; black and gold marble, the bath. On the other hand, a grey leather sofa and a library that would not look out-of-place in a gentleman’s club—subdue the atrium-cum-study area.

The rest of the yacht echoes these tones. The two twin guest cabins have sand-hued fabrics with safari motifs, and black marble baths. The two VIP cabins have diagonally placed beds, and follow distinct color schemes with different grey- and honey-colored marble in the baths. Most of the upholstery fabrics are by Fendi—not easy to come by, even in Italy. Leather furniture, such as a studded sofa in the owner’s suite, is by Italy’s Pelle Frau, which specializes in leather interiors for Ferrari, BMW, Mercedes and Pininfarina. (Click image to enlarge)

With plenty of room on the flybridge deck, the two PWCs and their crane do not intrude on outdoor living areas. Those include a fixed table under the radar arch, a large Jacuzzi, a bar and a full-size, teak dining table. High-quality construction, handsome lines—and respectable performance—make the Custom Line 128 even more worthy of its ShowBoats Award today, than it was a year ago.
