CNB delivers three 50-meter hulls to Cantiere delle Marche in less than two weeks.
The complex operation was completed during the holiday period under the direction of the Cpn group and involved the production sites of Trieste and Marghera.
Nearly one hundred and fifty linear meters of superyachts were moved by sea and delivered turnkey for final outfitting within fifteen days. This was the final result of the operation by CNB Scarl (a consortium controlled by CPN Srl, owned by the Belardinelli family), which took place between December 18 and 29, 2025. The project involved the transfer of three pre-fitted hulls, one 43-meter long and the other two 50-meter long, from the construction sites in Trieste and Marghera to the Cantiere delle Marche hub in Ancona.
The operation, as CNB President Gianluca Fenucci explained to SUPER YACHT 24, "was defined in detail well in advance to address the uncertainties of winter weather and highlights the planning capabilities of the Adriatic nautical industry." The entire project was managed by CNB Scarl, under the leadership of Cristiana and Massimo Belardinelli, with operational coordination by Fenucci himself, adhering to a tight schedule: the goal was to deliver the three vessels during the holiday season to allow CdM's outfitting teams to have the hulls ready in the shipyard when the shipyard reopens in January.
The complexity of the project extended not only to construction—carried out in close collaboration with the Cantiere delle Marche technical team and lasting approximately 10-11 months for the metalwork and pre-fitting—but above all to the logistics of sea transport. The first hull, from the Trieste site managed by logistics partner SeaDock (Samer Group), was delivered on December 18th. The second, logistically more complex, tranche involved two 50-meter hulls built in Marghera by logistics partner Idromacchine, delivered simultaneously on December 29th.
The transfer procedures required different technical solutions, entrusted to engineer Massimo Magrini for nautical coordination, who relied on the Maltese special transport company Med Towage and Transport Service Ltd. For the departure from Trieste, the 43-meter hull of CdM's Deep Blue 141 line was lifted from the warehouse and positioned on trailers by Pasquinelli (a long-standing partner for ground handling). Using the same supports, the vessel was loaded directly onto a self-propelled barge. Upon reaching the Ancona dock, the barge aligned itself with the pier to allow the trailers to unload and transport the hull to the Cantieri delle Marche warehouses.
The procedure at Marghera was different: the operation involved loading the two vessels (two 50-meter vessels from the Flexeplorer 165 CdM line) onto a single barge and statically securing them. Upon arrival in Ancona, Pasquinelli's trailers waited on the dock to pick up the vessels one at a time. Once secured on the trailers, the vessels were finally transferred to the shipyard.
The business model is therefore based on a close partnership between the manufacturer and suppliers. CNB Scarl and CPN Srl acted as leaders, coordinating a network of specialized companies: for the production phase, the group relied on the collaboration of Apolide SpA, FMA, and FM, while the integrated land-sea logistics saw the synergy between Pasquinelli, Idromacchine, the Samer Group, and engineer Magrini.
"The goal achieved is not only numerical, but also strategic," Fenucci concluded, "because it demonstrates the reliability of a production system capable of managing peak workloads and logistical complexities even during critical periods of the year, guaranteeing the client operational continuity without downtime." Currently, CNB Scarl has already begun work on a new 50-meter vessel in Trieste and is managing seven other projects of various sizes in Marghera, primarily for CdM and the Ferretti Group, as well as other leading Italian shipbuilding companies.
