Italian yachting icon Riva, a key brand under the Ferretti Group, has officially launched the first unit of its Riva 112 Dolcevita Super model at its La Spezia facility. Measuring 34.4 metres, the yacht marks a significant evolution in Riva’s flybridge lineup and will make its public debut at the 2025 Cannes Yachting Festival.
The design—crafted in collaboration with long-standing partner Officina Italiana Design—introduces sweeping updates to both form and function. It retains Riva’s signature sporty silhouette, while adopting a more versatile and lifestyle-focused approach across her exterior and interior spaces.
A New Level of Outdoor Living
The standout feature of the 112 Dolcevita Super is its expansive beach club. Measuring 35 square metres, the ultra-low platform brings guests closer to the sea and integrates an oversized sun lounger, ventilated storage for two SeaBobs, and a garage large enough for both a tender and a Jet Ski.
Additional outdoor enhancements include:
- A cockpit lounge with twin sofas and freestanding furniture
- A bow area with a broad sunpad and seating (with optional Jacuzzi)
- A fully redesigned flybridge, equipped with a cocktail bar, bar stools, a TV lounge, and freestanding furnishings that echo a relaxed, open-air penthouse aesthetic
Interiors: Tradition Meets Transformation
The interior layout has been rethought with two main configurations. Hull No. 1 opts for a dining area aft and midship lounge, maximizing panoramic views during social meals. A second option allows for a lounge-forward, dining-central arrangement inspired by the smaller Riva 102 Corsaro Super.
Key interior materials include:
- High-gloss rosewood
- Black leather detailing
- Bronze accents and fine decorative elements across the owner’s suite and saloon
Guests will appreciate the heightened acoustic privacy, made possible by a reinforced bulkhead between the crew and guest areas and reengineered flooring to dampen vibration.
Performance & Projects
With a beam of 7.3 metres and powered by twin MTU engines, the Riva 112 Dolcevita Super can reach a top speed of 25.5 knots. True to the brand’s legacy, it blends high performance with timeless Italian style.
The launch comes amid a major production phase for Riva, which currently has 16 superyachts under construction, including a 70-metre hybrid flagship for a repeat client.
