Riva AQUARAMA SUPER used

Defined by its status as an icon of Italian design, this 1968 Riva Aquarama Super remains one of the most sought-after motorboats in history. This specific unit belongs to the rare second series, which features a more pronounced V-hull geometry compared to earlier models. This design choice provides a significantly smoother transition over waves, enhancing comfort during cruising. Measuring 8.45 meters in length with a 2.62-meter beam, this vessel retains its historical integrity while benefiting from thorough maintenance. The hull has been stripped to bare wood and treated with a new 22-coat paint application, complemented by fresh bilge painting. These efforts ensure the structural and aesthetic condition of the wood is preserved to a high standard. The mechanical performance is supported by original Riva engines, which underwent a comprehensive service in 2023. Capable of a cruising speed of 35 knots and a maximum speed of 44 knots, this boat is built for responsive and spirited performance. It has been primarily operated in freshwater, further contributing to its well-preserved state. With accommodation for up to 8 people and a single cabin layout, this vessel is suited for collectors and enthusiasts of classic nautical engineering who prioritize craftsmanship and heritage. The VAT is paid, and the boat is located in Italy, ready for inspection by appointment.
