Riva has entered a new chapter in its illustrious history with the unveiling of the Riva 54Metri, the largest yacht ever built by the iconic Italian shipyard. Measuring 54.83 metres in length, featuring an all-aluminium construction and remaining below the 500 GT threshold, the new flagship is a remarkable expression of timeless elegance, advanced engineering and Italian craftsmanship.
Developed through the collaboration of Officina Italiana Design, the studio led by Mauro Micheli and Sergio Beretta, together with the Ferretti Group Product Strategy Committee and Engineering Department, the Riva 54Metri successfully translates the brand's unmistakable design language onto an entirely new scale while preserving the identity that has defined Riva for more than 180 years.
Its sleek profile, perfectly balanced proportions and sculpted surfaces are enhanced by sophisticated metallic finishes, creating a yacht that is both contemporary and unmistakably Riva.

Designed Around the Sea
The philosophy behind the Riva 54Metri centres on creating an uninterrupted connection between guests and the surrounding sea. Floor-to-ceiling glazing, fold-out side terraces and expansive outdoor living areas blur the boundaries between interior and exterior spaces, delivering an exceptional onboard experience.

At the stern, the yacht features one of the largest beach clubs in its class, expanding to more than 60 square metres when the side platforms are deployed. A 4 x 2-metre swimming pool remains filled even while underway, while a fully equipped gym enjoys direct access to the beach club, creating a true waterfront wellness area.

Luxury Across Four Decks
Spread across four decks connected by a central lift, the Riva 54Metri accommodates up to ten guests in four VIP cabins and an impressive full-beam owner's suite located on the main deck.

The interiors combine natural teak, Sahara Noir and Bianco Rhino marble, premium leather finishes and polished stainless steel accents, creating an atmosphere that is both contemporary and unmistakably luxurious.
The expansive 100-square-metre sundeck offers a Jacuzzi, generous lounge areas, an al fresco dining space and a fully equipped bar, making it one of the yacht's most inviting entertainment areas.

Power comes from twin MTU 12V2000 M96L engines, delivering a top speed of 18 knots and an impressive cruising range of approximately 3,600 nautical miles at 11 knots.
The yacht is equipped with Naiad Dynamics electric stabilisers, advanced automation systems, integrated cybersecurity, Starlink connectivity with OneWeb readiness, sophisticated energy management systems and state-of-the-art navigation technology.

Exceptional acoustic insulation, vibration reduction technologies and completely separate circulation routes for guests and crew further enhance comfort, privacy and operational efficiency throughout the vessel.
With the Riva 54Metri, the Italian shipyard has created far more than its largest yacht to date. It represents a new benchmark for modern superyacht design, seamlessly combining heritage, innovation and engineering excellence while reaffirming Riva's position among the world's most prestigious yacht builders.
