Riva 56 Rivale
Sleek Italian lines for sunset runs along Illetes
- 17m
- 10 guests
- 2 cabins
The Riva Aquariva carries the marque's signature low, sculpted profile in a size built for a single day well spent on the water. At 10 metres, the layout stays open and uncomplicated: a helm position with good sightlines, sun-friendly deck space fore and aft, and the mahogany decking that has always been the boat's calling card underfoot. With capacity for 8 guests and a single cabin below, it suits a group that wants comfort and presence without the scale or crew requirements of a larger yacht.
A cruising speed of around 41 knots makes the Aquariva a practical choice for guests based in or around the Bay of Palma who want to cover ground quickly rather than spend the day in transit. It's well suited to an out-and-back run toward Illetes or a short hop along the coast, with time in hand to anchor, swim, and return before evening. The boat's size also makes it manageable for tighter marina spaces and closer-in anchorages that larger charter yachts would avoid.
This is a yacht for guests who value design and handling as much as deck space — couples, small groups of friends, or a compact family outing where one cabin is enough. It works equally well as a half-day or full-day charter from a Mallorca base, and its speed leaves room to adjust plans on the day, whether that means covering more coastline or simply getting to a preferred spot faster.
