A new group enters the international boating market: Solaris Yachts and CNB come together to create the first worldwide excellence group in the construction of sailing boats, from 40 to 110 feet. The partnership lays the foundations for a new player in the shipbuilding industry scene, made up of two market leading brands that together have 80 years of experience.
The new group will combine the fast cruiser tradition of Solaris Yachts with the long-range cruising vocation of CNB yachts. Moving forward, the synergies between these two brands will benefit the development of new models, while respecting each one’s identity and continuing the production of the identity boats for each of the two brands. From 2022, CNB 66 and CNB 76 production will gradually transition to the Solaris site, which is around 20 km from Monfalcone.
Since 1974, Solaris Yachts has been setting new standards in the performance cruiser sector. Solaris Yachts’ large and powerful hulls match with elegant, classic and timeless layouts. They are modern and fast sailing boats for sailing and racing enthusiasts who seek pleasure above all from personally steering their boat.

Since being founded more than 30 years ago, CNB yacht builders has built a world-renowned position for creating one-off models, then adapting this know-how for semi-custom yachts. A market leader with the CNB 76 and CNB 66, CNB yacht builders is firmly focused on blue water sailing. Combining seaworthiness and unique style, the panoramic roof created by Philippe Briand has become the yard’s iconic signature.
