This second longest model after the flagship Riva was conceived as a» first class floating sofa«, and after half an hour on board it is clear that the designers have fulfilled their mission. Such a number of details born of a combination of premium materials, a clever balance of form and function can't be found on an average cruiser - that's why the model was named just like the Duchess.
Like the other large Riva, Duchessa has retained a chip «so beloved by fans of the brand -»a wide sunbed extending from the garage in the stern, which invariably entices guests from the three«bed on the flybridge».
The behaviour of the yacht on the water also has to be named after her: a made-up 86-ton vessel with virtually no circulation even with the rock stabilizers off and confidently overcomes the wave in a wide speed range thanks to a balanced weight distribution. «The Duchess is» beautiful, fast and practical, as befits an Italian woman of noble class.
