Rio Paranà d'occasion

Designed for water sports enthusiasts and collectors, this 1967 Rio Parana stands as a preserved example of the smallest model in the Rio fleet. Inspired by American utility boats, it offers a nimble 5.6-meter hull that reaches a top speed of 38 knots, with a comfortable cruising speed of 28 knots. The craft is currently located in Italy and maintains a VAT-paid status. Following a meticulous ownership history, which includes care from a prominent French collector, the boat underwent extensive restoration work in 2020. This included a complete refit of the hull and transom using 12mm Sapele mahogany and a professional application of 25 coats of Stoppani varnish. The aesthetic and functional appeal is further enhanced by re-chromed deck hardware, a restored windscreen, and brand-new cockpit cushions and boat cover. With a draft of just 0.45 meters, this wooden boat is well-suited for coastal waters and lake cruising. It comfortably accommodates up to 5 people, making it an ideal choice for day excursions or vintage boat rallies. The current mechanical and structural condition is excellent, reflecting the high standard of maintenance performed by the current owner. Prospective buyers have the option to purchase a Mecanorem double-axle trailer, fitted with new tires, for an additional 3,000 Euro. This vessel is an exceptional opportunity for those seeking a turnkey classic boat that combines historical character with modern structural integrity.
