Yacht manufacturer Riva unveils its most extensive superyacht to date
In August 2025, Riva unveiled its largest superyacht to date, the impressive Riva 54METRI. Measuring an impressive 54 meters (approximately 177 feet) in length, this four-decker vessel is a testament to Riva's commitment to crafting luxury yachts [1][2][3].
Key Specifications and Features
The Riva 54METRI boasts a sleek, sporty profile with a moon gray and black color scheme, adorned with distinctive Riva aquamarine accents at the waterline. The yacht has a beam of 8.6 meters (28'2") and a draft of 2.23 meters (7'3"). It is constructed from lightweight aluminium hull and superstructure, with a gross tonnage under 500 GT for simpler regulatory compliance [4][3].
The yacht's interior is a masterclass in luxury, featuring Sahara Noir and Bianco Rhino marble, natural teak paneling, and leather accents. It accommodates 10 guests in 5 staterooms, served by a crew of 11. The Riva 54METRI offers over 370 square meters of outdoor space, making it perfect for alfresco dining and lounging [1][2][3][4].
Powered by twin 1,800-hp MTU engines, the first hull of the 54 Metri delivers an impressive 1,920 hp each, although the standard engine option is two MTUs with 1,700 hp each [4][3]. The bow of the yacht is adorned with two large sun pads, while the main deck features a welcome area equipped with a large sofa, armchairs, and an outdoor bar.
Notable Design Elements
One of the standout features of the Riva 54METRI is its outdoor areas. The yacht boasts a plush beach area with a 16-foot pool and sunbeds. Both hull sides in the beach club and main deck cockpit fold out to create waterside terraces, providing ample space for relaxation and entertainment [1][2][3].
The yacht's design was overseen by Officina Italiana Design (Mauro Micheli and Sergio Beretta), with strategic input from Ferretti Group’s product committee led by Piero Ferrari. A large transformer platform at the stern, a 16-foot swimming pool flanked by sun pads, and forward sun pads concealing technical equipment and storage for tenders and water toys are just some of the innovative design elements that make the Riva 54METRI a truly unique superyacht [1][2][3][4].
The Riva 54METRI was developed and built at the Ferretti Group’s Superyacht Division facility in Ancona, Italy. This luxury vessel aims to combine timeless elegance with modern luxury and expand Riva’s offerings to larger superyachts to meet market demand for more spacious and private yachting [1][2][3].
Riva is planning to launch another 54 Metri in 2026 and 2027, ensuring that this impressive superyacht continues to make waves in the luxury yachting industry.
