The most famous of Carlo Riva’s designs, the Aquarama has become, over time, more than just a boat. The undisputed flagship of the range, it is celebrated as a nautical legend in its own right, a
superlative in beauty, craftsmanship and performance that has rarely been surpassed both on and off the water. Its evocative name perhaps assured its mythical status, and is derived in part from the widescreen Cinerama movie format, popular in the early 1960s, which is echoed by the boat’s wide windshield.
In total 769 boats were built over the course of the Aquarama’s long production run, which only came to an end in 1996. This included 203 Super Aquaramas (built 1963-1971)
