Saint Tropez

Timeless Italian engineering defines this 1981 Riva Saint Tropez, now available for those seeking a prestigious classic. Measuring 9.52 meters in length with a 2.74-meter beam, this vessel has undergone a comprehensive restoration to bring it back to its original glory. With hull number 218, it represents a significant piece of nautical history, maintained with meticulous attention to detail. The mechanical heart of this boat features twin 350 HP Termo Electro Crusaider Marine V8 petrol engines, which have been fully overhauled and brought to zero hours. Further technical upgrades include new hydraulic steering, new shafts and propellers, refurbished exhausts, and a complete overhaul of the electrical system. Every functional component, from the fuel and water tanks to the through-hull fittings and piping, has been serviced or replaced to ensure reliable performance during its 23-knot cruising speed, with a top speed of 34 knots. Aesthetic restoration has been equally thorough, featuring new upholstery throughout the interior and exterior, new cielini, and a bespoke tonneau cover. The woodwork, chrome profiles, and iconic grey fume windshield have been meticulously refurbished, while the lockers, bilge, and engine compartment have been repainted. The boat retains its original character, with the original folding door and custom Riva floor mats adding to its authentic charm. Designed for elegance, this boat comfortably accommodates up to 8 people with its single cabin layout. It is currently located in Italy and is offered with VAT paid, making it an excellent candidate for collectors or enthusiasts of the Riva brand. All works, including the hull polish and antifouling, are complete and the boat is ready for inspection.
