Riva RUDY used

Defined by its heritage as the first hull of the series, this 1972 Riva Rudy represents a rare piece of nautical history. While later production models transitioned to fiberglass, this specific vessel was crafted entirely in wood, setting it apart as a collector-grade boat for discerning enthusiasts. It has been meticulously restored to excellent condition, with significant structural upgrades including a new deck, new hull bottom, and a new transom to ensure longevity. Performance is at the heart of this open-utility boat, featuring a reconditioned engine and transmission, now complemented by a new Edelbrock carburetor. With a cruising speed of 28 knots and a maximum speed of 36 knots, it delivers the agility expected of the class. The hull has been sealed with the West Epoxy System, blending traditional craftsmanship with contemporary protection. The vessel has been used exclusively in fresh water following its comprehensive restoration. Designed by Architect Barilani, the model features a deep, walkaround cockpit that provides safety for up to 6 passengers. It retains signature mahogany details, such as the side handrails and the storage shelf behind the helm station, which provide a tactile, luxurious finish. This versatility makes the boat well-suited for water sports or as a classic tender. This boat is currently located in Italy and is offered with its original twin-axle transport trailer included. The price has been reduced to 55.000 EUR, with VAT paid status, making this a transparent and straightforward acquisition for the next owner.
