Riva Superamerica - Hull #16 of a masterpiece!

Own a piece of yachting history with Hull #16 of this luxury 1972 motor yacht built by Riva Yachts during their \'Dolce Vita\' era and designed by Giorgio Barilani of Aquamara fame! Designer cues include the famous companionway to the main cabins which include  curved steps leading from the salon down to a cylindrical foyer, which has a curved door to each cabin & head, as well open access to the galley.

Caterina K has been re-powered to Ford 7.4L diesels cooled by an Orca freshwater cooling system and had new instrumentation installed. Her Westerbeke generator was overhauled in 2012.

Caterina K is a \'must see\' to appreciate the beauty of her true Italian art-deco design and quality

Since the ‘50s, a true gallery of famous people have enjoyed, and indeed continue to enjoy, a Riva yacht: from Brigitte Bardot, with her Florida, to King Hussein of Jordan, who moored his Super Aquarama in Santa Margherita Ligure; from Anita Ekberg, who purchased a Tritone where she could indulge in her own personal Dolce Vita, to Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton, who used a Junior as a tender for their yacht, and the Shah of Persia, who fell in love with the Riva 2000. Lastly, Sofia Loren and Sean Connery, who bought a Rudy three years after giving up filming the famous 007 series. Though growing and evolving, Riva remains a luxury icon. A brand where the eccentricity of passing trends does not have the upper hand, but rather long-lasting quality, painstaking care over detail, that touch of glamour which underlines the correct balance between tradition and modernity.
