Riva Ariston Cadillac

Riva Ariston was considered by Carlo Riva as the most elegant runabout. This model is the only one that was built during the entire Engineer’s management of the Shipyard.
This boat is one of only 19 produced with optional Cadillac engine.
In fact, the 275 HP engine comes directly from the 8V engine adopted on the famous Cadillac Eldorado.
The boat was launched in 1958 with only 6 other examples fitted out in this configuration.
Bottom and sides are in marine plywood.
The deck is also made of the same material and the wood species used are Gran Bassan for the outer layer and Sapeli mahogany for the inner one.
The boat is in very good condition as it has been completely restored and used for only 2 hours by the current owner.
This boat has always been stored indoors.
Further info and details of the restoration available on request.
