Riva 25 Sportfisherman
Born from an unusual twinning between the iconic Riva and the American Bertam, the 25' Sport Fisherman is a boat that actively participates in the transition between eras. We are towards the end of the 60s and Riva, under Bertram license, produces a motorboat that is innovative in its own way, with comfortable spaces, now destined to facilitate movement, to offer ample scope, rather than limiting the user to the role of passenger only .
Developing the original Bertram project, Riva adapts the spaces here to Mediterranean needs, creating a boat closer to our local nautical and consequent uses. The cockpit thus takes advantage of the two engine hoods – V Drive uprights – and obtains a practical and comfortable sundeck which, when not in use, can be folded back on itself, leaving the cockpit free.
This Sportfisherman has always been a lake, since 2021 at sea for the 4 summer months and winter storage in the yard.
