Francesca Motor Yacht
About Francesca
Nine guests split across four cabins, an owner's suite, a VIP and two doubles, is a tight, well-considered layout for a 31-metre sports yacht, and a crew cabin added at the bow keeps three crew apart from the guest deck rather than sharing it. Cerri Cantieri Navali built Francesca as a CCN 102 FlyingSport, and she is offered for sale from Vallauris, France.
Build and provenance
Cerri Cantieri Navali built her in 2018 as a CCN 102 FlyingSport with a GRP hull and superstructure, and Tommaso Spadolini designed her interior. She has recently completed her five-year class survey, a checkpoint that gives a buyer a fresh, independent look at her structure and systems rather than one due soon after purchase.
Layout and accommodation
Four cabins, an owner's suite, a VIP and two doubles, sleep nine guests, and the crew cabin added at the bow keeps her three crew in their own quarters, separate from the accommodation deck. Inside, sycamore and dark wood panelling with glass and satin metal accents run through the cabins and saloon.
Performance and engineering
Two 2,600 hp MTU engines give her a 35-knot cruise and a 40-knot top speed, output built for planing hard rather than gentle displacement cruising. A 1.4-metre draught keeps that pace usable close to shore, and zero-speed stabilisers hold her level once she is anchored.
Where she lies and how to see her
Francesca lies in Vallauris, France. Boatcrowd sets up a viewing and comes along for it, and once an offer is accepted, the survey and sea trial follow before she changes hands.

Buying Costs
- Survey
- A buyer normally commissions a condition survey, and a sea trial, once an offer is accepted and before the sale becomes unconditional. The cost depends on her size and on where she is lifted, and it is the buyer who appoints the surveyor.
- Registration and flag
- She will be registered on a flag of the buyer's choosing, which carries its own fees and its own survey and crew requirements. Where the yacht is owned through a company, the shares rather than the vessel may change hands, which changes what is payable.
- VAT and import
- Whether VAT is due, and where, depends on the yacht's current status, her flag, the buyer's residency and where she is delivered. Where the seller has stated her VAT status, it is shown with the asking price on her page, and it is confirmed in writing before an offer is made.
- Running costs
- Crew, berthing, insurance, class and annual maintenance continue from the day she is yours. A yacht that is also chartered earns against them, and we will set out what her season has actually returned before you commit.
