Riva

Family yard on Lake Iseo; under Carlo Riva mahogany motorboats such as the Ariston, Tritone and Aquarama, later motor yachts.

Pietro Riva began building boats in Sarnico on Lake Iseo. Under Carlo Riva in the 1950s and 60s the yard made mahogany motorboats with many coats of varnish and chrome details.

The Aquarama of 1962 became a symbol of life on the Riviera and among film stars. Riva is now part of the Ferretti Group.
