History:

The name Riva is synonymous with elegance, class, and premier European craftsmanship, Riva has been one of the world’s leading producers in high quality speed boats since the 1950s. The Riva name dates back through the 1840s, where Pietro Riva began to fashion boats in a small northern Italian town called Sarnico. Pietro’s grandson, Carlo, would be the figurehead of the Riva Speed Boating legend. In the 1950s, Carlo Riva began to produce elegant wooden speed boats of unquestionably superior style and quality.
The Riva Aquariva is considered the boat that bridges the gap between the Riva speedboats of the old, and the Riva speedboats of the future. Produced in 2001, the Riva Aquariva features dual Yanmar engines that provide the speedboat with 370 hp at 3300 RPM, enabling it to reach max speeds of 42 knots per hour.

The Riva Aquariva’s elegance and construction through the use of finely crafted and exotic woods parallels the speedboat’s unprecedented level of comfort and performance.
