The 1997 Riva Aquarius 54 is a composite-hulled cruiser built by the Italian maker renowned for refined maritime design. At nearly 55 feet in length with a 15.5-foot beam, it combines classic proportions with elegant lines and varnished woodwork. Twin MAN diesel engines producing 820 horsepower each deliver a combined 1,640 hp, enabling a cruising speed of 24 knots and a maximum speed of 30 knots. The engines have logged only 845 hours of use, and an onboard bow thruster aids maneuvering in confined spaces.
The interior accommodates four guests across two cabins, served by four heads. Original fittings throughout reflect Riva's attention to detail and craftsmanship. An onboard generator supplies power for galley, entertainment, and lighting systems, allowing independent operation away from shore infrastructure.
All original components have been preserved and remain in serviceable condition. Maintenance records are current, with annual oil analysis performed to monitor engine health.
