Riva Unveils 56′ Rivale Yacht

Riva 56' Rivale Yacht

To celebrate their 175th anniversary iconic boat manufacturer Riva has launched a stunning new 56-foot yacht – the 56′ Rivale.

Emerging from a wall of mirrors on the waters of Lake Iseo at Riva’s “Reflections” event in Sarnico, the Rivale was unveiled in all its glory with its slippery shark grey exterior, black accents, tinted windows and a unique aerodynamic windshield. The yacht also features a special electro-hydraulically operated Bimini roof which offers excellent protection from bad weather or privacy from prying eyes. To match its sleek, stealth-like appearance the yacht comes fitted with either twin 1000 or twin 1200 HP engines, propelling you to a top speed of 40mph leaving other yachts in its wake.

Below deck, the Rivale is about as luxurious as you would expect from the historic brand, decked out with natural teak, burnished mahogany, Ivano Redaelli furniture and luxurious carpets manufactured by the Dutch company Van Besouw.

In addition to the new yacht, Riva have also collaborated with luxury car manufacturer Abarth to produce a special-edition 695 Rivale car. With a matching “grey-blue Riva” exterior and double line in “aqua marine”, it’s the perfect pocket rocket for when you moored at the marina.
