  • Iseo wins the “Croatian Boat of the Year” Award 2015

    Iseo wins the “Croatian Boat of the Year” Award 2015

    Sarnico (Italy), 27th February 2015 – Riva, the iconic Ferretti Group brand and legend on the international boating scene, has added another award to its trophy cabinet already bursting with successes from 173 years of shipbuilding.
    The latest prize winner is the ISEO, the jewel in the crown of the open range launched in July 2011 which manages to condense all the inimitable style and elegance of the Italian brand into just 27 feet.
    The runabout was one of the winners at the 2015 “Croatian Boat of Year” awards organised by the industry magazine “Naucat”. The official awards ceremony took place at the “Zagreb Boat Show”, which was held in the Croatian city from the 18th to 22nd of February.

    ISEO took the award for Best Motor Boat in the 29 feet and under category, once again showing it is not just a ‘must-have’ for those who love cruising on both lakes and the sea, but also a boat with a unique and inimitable design.
    While it is certainly the perfect runabout for day cruising, it is also a budding design icon which is perfect for those wishing to enhance their mega yacht with an exclusive tender that will never go unnoticed.

    The “Croatian Boat of the Year” Award represents an important European recognition for the boating industry, as the winners, divided into six categories, are selected from a shortlist of over twenty models. The international jury is made up of the manufacturers themselves, professionals from the sector who are therefore best placed to choose the best model in each specific category.

    “We are very proud to receive this award, as it confirms how Riva’s excellence and style are admired and recognised throughout its wide-ranging fleet, from the 27-foot ISEO right up to the 100-metre Full Custom range,” stated Stefano de Vivo, Chief Commercial Officer of Ferretti Group. “ISEO, in particular, is a sleek and refined product, which as well as satisfying requirements for comfort, ease of transport and immediate use, is also oozing with style and an object of desire for boat owners all over the world.”

     

    RIVA ISEO
    A ‘must-have’ for those who love cruising on both lakes and the sea, ISEO has unique and breathtaking looks, an elegant design and superb stern-driven handling. She is also perfect for anyone wishing to enhance their mega yacht with an exclusive tender with water jet propulsion. The size and design criteria for ISEO were selected to allow the owner to enjoy their boat wherever and whenever they wish. For this reason, ISEO also has her own custom-made trailer, allowing the owner to transport the vessel wherever they wish to go. It is the first craft in its class with an infotainment system and GPS charting based on the Apple iPad platform. Its software was specifically developed for Riva with many interesting features, such as the possibility to browse the owner’s manual, check the weather, listen to the radio, stream a TV show or enjoy your own playlists by simply connecting your iPad to the on-board Hi-Fi system via Bluetooth.

  • The 88’ Domino Super gets its first triplet

    The 88’ Domino Super gets its first triplet

    La Spezia, 14th July 2015 – While enthusiasm is still lingering in the air for the fabulous première held last May in Monaco, the Riva 88’ Domino Super is already celebrating its first achievement: just a few weeks after its official launch, Ferretti Group announces the sale of the first 3 hulls of the new Riva coupé yacht.

    “The official presentation of the 88’ Domino Super at the Yacht Club de Monaco was a very exciting moment and now, we can surely say that event was the starting point of what is already a commercial success. Less than two months after, Riva and the Ferretti Group are proud to announce the sale of three yachts”, commented Ferretti Group’s Chief Commercial Officer, Stefano de Vivo.

    The three yachts have been sold in three different markets, showing how the 88’ Domino Super has been welcomed enthusiastically at an international level: the first hull will go to an Owner from continental Europe, the second one will be delivered in the Asia-Pacific, meanwhile the third will cruise across Middle-East seas.

    These are the first positive results of a commercial strategy aimed at confirming the leadership of the Ferretti Group’s most iconic brand across the world.

    88’ Domino Super
    The 88’ Domino Super is characterized by a slender profile and an extensive restyling, the 88′ Domino Super is bound to set new standards in the yachting sector as a whole in terms of style, comfort, and performance. The new model is called Super also because it marks the evolution of the species. The 88’ Domino Super yacht immediately strikes the eye with its aerodynamic lines, which are also enhanced by the hull’s original colour shade, the dark ‘London Grey’, in pleasant contrast with the lighter ‘Moon Grey’ chosen for the superstructure. This innovative feature goes hand in hand with other new design solutions: the new sun deck, which highlights the yacht’s sporty character while offering its guests additional comfort; the large continuous hull glazing, resulting in a truly aggressive look; and the restyled aft area, which adds the final touch to the yacht’s dynamic personality. The aft swimming platform, which can be lowered into the sea, makes diving into the water and getting back onboard much easier, as well as enhancing tender launching and haulage operations.

    In the standard version, the yacht is equipped with two MTU 16V 2000 M93, 2435 Mhp engines, allowing it to reach a maximum speed of 38 knots and a cruising speed of 34 knots. As an option, two MTU 16V 2000 M94, 2638 Mhp engines can be installed instead, pushing the yacht up to 40 knots and ensuring a cruising speed of 35 knots.
