Riva Yacht is an Italian luxury yacht manufacturer based in Sarnico, Lombardy. Founded in 1842 by Pietro Riva, the brand has been considered a symbol of the Italian marine tradition ever since. Its first boat, the 'Gozzy' was successfully launched, setting the reputation that the company still holds today.
Riva's success in boatbuilding and racing, along with their exquisite designs, has earned them a global following. In the 1950s they introduced the Aquarama, a pioneering design with an exclusive teak shell and powerful engines. It was the first model to bring together high performance and luxurious design, which soon became the company's hallmark.
Today Riva Yacht produces a wide range of luxurious boats and superyachts with iconic designs, and is still one of the most prestigious boat manufacturers in the world. Their designs have earned them the recognition of the international design institutions including the Red Dot, iF Design Award, and the German Design Award.
