Riva Rivamare. New Masterpiece
Once upon a time of Carlo Riva, the great-grandson of the legendary founder of the shipyard, I determined that each boat Riva should be a masterpiece. But this is not enough to be just a beautiful boat – such a lot in the world. About Riva boats under the brand must speak as a legend that once born, they all have taken a worthy place in the history of the company. Perhaps the new Rivamare may well qualify for this status
This nearly 12-meter beauty evoked delight and it fell in love at first sight at the presentation in the Italian town of Sarnico. That is where Ferretti Group Riva transferred the production of this model, previously fully upgrade this unit shipyard.
Like other iconic Italian yacht brand new Rivamare is a model of elegance and style, and its signature notes are read from the first seconds of viewing. The exterior of the yacht clearly traced the continuity of the family Riva: traditional classic lines, like the Aquariva Super and well recognizable curves of Rivarama. Yet Rivamare – is redefining the concept of these legendary yachts, attention to detail, fresh approach to the planning and comfort. New Riva has received a range of recognizable symbols renowned shipyard: finishing in teak bow deck, the insertion of the instrument panel mahogany, chrome grille and “duck”, and 5-fold curved windshield. As a rule, the Riva offers a wide range of color solutions for their boats, so Rivamare can be painted in the most popular colors – Ice White or London Grey.
Sport and Pleasure cruiser gave planing hull and major engines. The power plant of a pair of Volvo Penta D6-400 400 hp Each allows you to overclock the boat to a top speed of 40 knots and a cruising speed of 31 Rivamare node. The classical approach to the finish did not stop Riva equip the novelty of modern and elaborate management system. For example, all analog control elements have been replaced with touch screen display, by which to perform tracking the engine performance or navigation functions. On Rivamare also has a joystick, thrusters and other functionality for easy maneuvering in small creeks or precise movement at the side mooring.
Cooperation Ferretti Group Engineering Department and Officina Italiana Design has created a boat with lots of different engineering solutions, as well as an abundance of living space, which was previously available only to large yachts. One of the features Rivamare – feed steps that can be converted into a bathing platform impressive size. This solution has made it possible to allocate space for a full-fledged beach club right on the water, which is optionally equipped with a folding cushioned loungers. The main sanpad impressive size smoothly flows into the cockpit area. U-shaped sofa and a folding table in mahogany occupy a large part of the feeding space, however, there can accommodate 8 people comfortably.
With regards to the additional options offered at Rivamare their lot. For example, on the starboard side is a mini-garage storage Seabob, as the boat is equipped with a commissioned underwater lighting system, Power bimini awning, air conditioning, ice maker and wine cooler. And last but not least, for the first time it has an opportunity to install on a boat of this size device Seakeeper NG5, which minimizes the pitching.
Generally, Rivamare is quite suitable for a short week-end, after all the living space on the lower deck includes everything you need. Small kitchen with top of the Corian material popular with a fridge and microwave. Opposite the working surface of the elegant panels of polished walnut and leather, stored utensils, glasses and coffee machine. Dinetta in the bow of the boat serves as a dining area in the daytime, and if necessary transformed into a double bed a specific form, repeating the contours of the boat. Here, on the request of the owner can be set TV-panel. Large ceiling skylights fill all that space with light during the day and lighting creates a cozy spot in the evening hours. The bathroom continues the style of interior decoration – polished wood panels and top in Corian. The big advantage was the fact that the designers managed to place in the room bathroom large separate shower. In general, every meter of the lower deck space perfectly weighted and very efficiently used, so was able to create a relatively small space cruiser truly comfortable interior.
