1998 Riva 70' Dolcevita, 350.000 EUR

Superlatives are often overused when describing yachts from premium shipyards, but in the case of a Riva, they are entirely justified. Elegant, timeless, sophisticated, every adjective seems fitting. In Europe, there is arguably no brand with the same heritage, prestige, and unmistakable presence as Riva. This magnificent 70-foot flybridge yacht showcases craftsmanship that remains deeply impressive even by today’s standards. Rich marquetry finishes that would not look out of place on a modern five-year-old yacht, supple leather upholstery, and a wonderfully social layout all combine to create an atmosphere of classic Italian refinement. Expansive exterior spaces make her equally suited to entertaining or extended cruising in complete comfort. Powered by twin MTU engines with just 1,600 exceptionally well-maintained hours, this Riva offers the ideal balance of performance, reliability, and pedigree. Meticulous maintenance throughout her life is evident in every detail. Presented in a highly desirable three-cabin layout, she is currently lying in Alicante and offered at €350,000 VAT paid. When one considers that many modern vessels at half her length command a higher asking price, the value represented here becomes extraordinary. Opportunities to acquire a yacht of this calibre, heritage, and condition at this level are increasingly rare. Quite simply, this may well be one of the best-value luxury yachts currently available on the market today.
