Riva

Riva Riva is one of the longest-established names in Italian yachting. Its history begins in 1842 at Sarnico on Lake Iseo, where Pietro Riva established the boatyard that developed into an internationally recognised motor-yacht marque. The Sarnico site remains an active Riva production facility today. Italian design heritage Riva's reputation was built through generations of refined motorboats and later fibreglass yachts. The modern range spans compact runabouts, open yachts, sportfly models, flybridge yachts and the larger Superyachts Division. Contemporary Riva styling remains closely associated with Officina Italiana Design. Part of Ferretti Group Riva is a Ferretti Group brand, giving it access to the wider group's engineering, production and owner-support network while retaining the identity associated with the Riva name. Current smaller Riva models continue to be built at the historic Sarnico shipyard. Riva 68' Diable Luxury Yacht Guide's first Riva production record is the Riva 68' Diable.
