Gucci and Riva announce exclusive made-to-order yacht: Aquariva by Gucci

Fashion meets mechanics! Gucci and Riva unveiled the exclusive made to order ‘Aquariva by Gucci’, a model customized by Gucci Creative Director Frida Giannini. This initiative will be one of the activities marking Gucci’s 90th anniversary year in 2011.

The Aquariva by Gucci has a fiberglass hull and detailing painted in Gucci’s own hue of glossy white. Riva’s signature use of mahogany with classic varnish finish is also the signature material for the cockpit and walking decks and awning cover hatch. The waterproof fabric covering the seats and sundeck features the emblematic Guccissima print, while the bed upholstery is defined by Gucci white cotton. The iconic touch is provided by Gucci’s green-red-green web detailing which edges the floating line, perfectly complementing the unique green crystal windshield. The Gucci customisation includes a series of Riva by Gucci accessories.

The innovative two-speed electronic gear reveals all the power of the two 380-horsepower Yanmar engines, ensuring an exceptional performance, with a maximum speed of 41 knots and a 150-mile range at cruising speed.

 Aquariva by Gucci was unveiled at the International Cannes Boat Show on September 7, 2010 followed by a special presentation on the opening day of Milan Fashion Week. The yacht will be showcased at some of the world’s most prestigious boat shows and international destinations throughout 2011.
