Cranchi Boats

This manufacturer, originally located on Lake Como, is an Italian- based boating company that has been building boats since 1870. The company first produced fishing boats and ferries, and now claims to use the most modern technology in their fiberglass boats. The Cranchi family has been involved in this business for five generations now. Although their main plant is in Italy, Cranchi has dealers on six continents. They also publish a magazine in five languages detailing their company and products. This manufacturer has several product lines, including Yacht Class, Flybridge Yacht, Master Yacht, Hard Top, Offshore, Pelican, Master Cruiser , and Sportline. Each line includes several models. This company is notable for their deluxe yachts, many of which are large with lavish accessories. One of their newest models is the Sixty 4 HT, a luxury yacht that includes many extra features . Unfortunately, prices for these boats are not given on the manufacturer’'92 s website, although detailed pictures and description of each model are available . Some used models are available from dealers in the United States, but even a used cruiser or express boat costs several hundred thousand dollars. While this company produces high quality boats, the expense may be a drawback for some customers.
