Riva Launches the 54 METRI: The Largest Riva Ever Built
54 metres of pure elegance, innovation, and iconic style
Ancona, August 7, 2025 – Riva has reached a historic milestone with the launch of the Riva 54METRI, the largest yacht ever built by the world’s most famous shipyard. An all-aluminium masterpiece measuring 54 metres in length with a beam of 8.60 metres and under 500 GT, the new flagship redefines the essence of Riva style on a grand scale.
“Now every yachting enthusiast has a new dream: the Riva 54METRI, a paragon of beauty and elegance,” said Ferretti Group CEO Alberto Galassi. “This yacht celebrates the visionary genius of Carlo Riva while writing a spectacular new page in the history of Riva and the art of cruising.”
Design and Partnership
Developed by Officina Italiana Design (Mauro Micheli and Sergio Beretta) in collaboration with the Strategic Product Committee led by Piero Ferrari and the Ferretti Group Engineering Department, Riva 54METRI combines sleek, sporty lines with timeless sophistication. A distinctive Moon Grey, London Grey, and Bright Black livery with polished steel detailing underlines her sculptural silhouette.
Exterior Living
Spread across four decks connected by a lift, the yacht offers expansive outdoor areas designed for privacy and seamless contact with the sea. A transformer platform leads to a beach club with fold-out terraces and a spectacular five-metre pool flanked by sunloungers. The main deck cockpit features a welcoming lounge and bar, while the bow lounge integrates two oversized sun sofas with concealed tender and toy storage.
Interiors
The yacht accommodates 10 guests in four guest cabins and a majestic main-deck master suite, supported by a crew of 11 in six cabins. Interiors are finished with fine marbles such as Sahara Noir and Bianco Rhino, natural teak panelling, and leather details, combining warmth with refined contrasts. Guest privacy is ensured through discreet crew routes across all decks.
Comfort and Technology
Riva 54METRI prioritises silence and comfort with four electric stabiliser fins, two electric rudders, and advanced acoustic insulation. The helm station introduces cutting-edge technology, including dual X-band radar systems, 5G and Starlink connectivity, full ECDIS, three 27-inch touchscreens, and a 44-inch stretch monitor.
A Historic First
A key role in the project was played by Alain Maaraoui, founder of Sea Pros Yachts, Riva’s exclusive dealer in Kuwait, who supported the owner throughout the build process. The launch of the Riva 54METRI is not just a new flagship—it is a new dimension of Riva, where timeless Italian design meets the future of superyachting.
