Riva
Since 1842, the name that defined what a motor yacht could be. Every Riva carries a lineage of Italian craftsmanship, still built by hand on Lake Iseo.
About Riva
Riva began in 1842 on Lake Iseo, where a young fisherman named Pietro Riva earned the trust of his neighbors by repairing boats damaged in the region's storms. That reputation led him to open his own shipyard in Sarnico, and word of his work soon traveled well beyond the lake. Under his son Ernesto, the yard began building motorized boats, and by the 1950s, Carlo Riva had turned the family name into a symbol on the water, a pursuit that reached its expression in 1962 with the Aquarama. The move to fibreglass followed in 1969, and in 2000, Ferretti Group acquired the company, a new chapter that brought the Aquariva and a return to megayacht production.
The craftsmanship has never changed. The wood on every Riva is still varnished by hand, in twenty-four steps, using the method Carlo Riva himself developed. Every screw is set the same way, painted to match the hull. It is the kind of detail that has nothing to prove, and everything to say.
