We are pleased to announce that MARCELLO, the limited-edition Riva 33’ Anniversario, has joined the RYI Sales Fleet!
MARCELLO is an exceptionally rare collector’s piece—one of just 18 ever built worldwide. It masterfully blends the timeless elegance of the iconic Aquarama with the sleek modernity of the Aquariva, creating a vessel that is both nostalgic and forward-looking.
Every detail speaks to Riva’s unmatched craftsmanship: from the hand-finished mahogany trim and Vienna straw accents, to the marine-grade waterproof leather that wraps the interior. The vintage-style dashboard and U-shaped sofa with an up/down dining table echo a golden era of Italian design, while twin Yanmar 8LV engines push performance to a thrilling top speed of 40.5 knots.
MARCELLO has been preserved in pristine condition, never used in Florida waters and kept in a private collector’s garage since delivery. Don’t miss the rare opportunity to own a piece of Riva history in as-new condition!

WELCOME ONBOARD
The sleekly elegant lines of the Anniversario are designed as always, by Mauro Micheli and Sergio Beretta, founders of Officina Italiana Design, working in partnership with the Strategic Product Committee led by Mr. Piero Ferrari and the Ferretti Group Engineering Department. The exterior styling is inspired by the Aquariva’s classic silhouette, featuring clean lines, balanced volumes, and a series of stylistic details that tap into the Aquarama’s refined style. The Riva Anniversario features an exclusive Metallic Brown finish that enhances its sculptural beauty, elegantly paired with gloss-varnished mahogany. Contrasting steel trim and Riva’s signature aquamarine and optical white leather upholstery add a modern, refined edge.
From the moment you approach, its seductive design stands out—highlighted by a concealed stern platform and an aquamarine waterline that pays tribute to the legendary Aquarama, echoed in the classic-style nameplate and protective steel bow cap with vintage searchlights. Aft, the engine compartment lies beneath a sun pad upholstered in alternating aquamarine and white waterproof leather, which continues throughout the cockpit and below deck. Riva Anniversario is fitted with an electronically controlled two-speed gearbox that unleashes all the power of the two YANMAR 8 LV engines, each rated 370 hp. This engine configuration delivers a top speed of 40.5 knots and provides a range of 155 miles at a cruising speed of 36 knots.
At the helm, twin 12-inch digital displays and vintage-inspired elements—like the Vienna straw pocket—blend technology with heritage. The spacious cockpit includes a U-shaped sofa and a central table for up to eight guests, which converts into a large sunbed. Integrated mahogany cabinetry beneath the seating offers smart storage and elegant lifestyle touches, all shaded by a sleek bimini top. The foredeck, laid in polished mahogany and finished with 24 coats of varnish, features Aquarama-style portholes and a central steel casing that houses navigation lights, adding a final touch of timeless elegance.
INTERIORS
Below deck, the ambiance is elegant and minimalist, featuring fine leather upholstery in a refined aquamarine and white color scheme that extends seamlessly to the ceiling. Designed for comfort and style, the interior includes a small cabin that can accommodate two guests. Ideal for day cruising, the Riva Anniversario offers a maximum capacity of eight people on board.
