The 58’ Capri was among four new models unveiled during a nighttime parade at the Riva Private World Premiere, which was held at the Ferretti Group brand’s historic Sarnico shipyard on Lake Iseo in northern Italy. The Iseo Super (27ft), Aquariva Special (33ft) and Cento (38ft) rounded out the cast of new models, which were displayed on the water in front of the shipyard where they were built.

 

The special event featured an “immersive live music show” by Inspiration Music & Arts with artistic direction by Jimmy Bitton, fine food and wine by the Alajmo brothers, and a showcase of Land Rover models.

 

Alberto Galassi, Ferretti Group’s CEO, said: “This night of incomparable beauty will live on in the history of the Sarnico shipyard. Four Riva [yachts] in one night is an absolute delight and the happiest of events for everyone who loves yachting and Italian excellence. I can’t wait for the boats to spark the same excitement in yacht enthusiasts that I felt with all our friends and guests.”

Riva described the 58’ Capri as the “sleek and sculpted first model of the brand’s new open sport yacht series”, with the open design featuring a streamline hardtop. The Iseo Super is an upgraded version of the brand’s entry model, with the 27ft runabout featuring many of the new technologies and style solutions evident on the El-Iseo, the brand’s first fully electric boat.

 

The Aquariva Special is an upgrade of the 33ft Aquariva, which has been in production for 24 years since its debut in 2001 and was a successor of the brand’s iconic Aquarama. The new model has been restyled by Officina Italiana Design, which has designed all Riva models for over three decades.

 

The limited-edition Riva Cento is based on the 38ft Rivamare and features an updated beach area and upgraded soft furnishings.

The Cento was built to commemorate production of the 100th unit of the Rivamare, which earlier in the month was honoured at a private ceremony in Sarnico attended by Galassi, Jiang Kui, Chairman of the Board of Directors at Ferretti Group, and other representatives of majority shareholder Weichai.

 

Jiang Kui said: “This magnificent day celebrates the huge success for Riva and Ferretti Group as a whole. We are very proud and congratulate the management and all employees on these achievements.

 

“Having witnessed consistent growth for over 10 years, we are confident that Ferretti Group, with

persistent efforts of the team, will maintain growth this sustainable and continue to create value

for all stakeholders.”
