innovative comfort…<br />

and poised style<br />

RIVA’S MEGAYACHT ADVENTURE CONTINUES, WITH THE REFINED 92’<br />

DUCHESSA MODEL FOLLOWING IN THE SUCCESSFUL WAKE OF THE<br />

FLAGSHIP OF THE COMPANY’S FLEET SINCE 2005, THE 115’ ATHENA.<br />

Encompassing the classic elegance of Riva<br />

style, the Duchessa’s design is harmoniously<br />

curved and racy.<br />

A large windscreen integrated into the high<br />

and bold line of the boat provides an excellent<br />

view from the pilot station, and large windows<br />

on the upper deck ensure that as much light<br />

as possible filters through to the salon and<br />

dining <strong>area</strong>.<br />

The environment is welcoming and comfortable:<br />

a chromatic balance between the warm<br />

shades of the black American walnut embellished<br />

with hand-sewn, white and chocolate<br />

leather inserts used for the furniture and bulkheads<br />

and the white varnished wood of the<br />

flooring (which can be replaced with white<br />

stone in marble powder in the dining <strong>area</strong>).<br />

The pilot station is equipped with latest-generation<br />

instruments, and features a comfor-<br />

table dinette for the crew with direct access to<br />

the flybridge and galley, which is completely<br />

accessorised and set lower down, on an intermediary<br />

level.<br />

A utility room has been created under the<br />

helm station. Additional household appliances<br />

can be fitted or it can be used as a storage<br />

<strong>area</strong>. In the foredeck <strong>area</strong>, the galley<br />

provides access to the three crew cabins, all<br />

with en-suite bathrooms, accommodating a<br />

captain and four crew. This completely separate<br />

<strong>area</strong> guarantees total privacy for owners<br />

and their guests. The low set galley and crew<br />

<strong>area</strong>s also make it possible to optimise the<br />

space available in the lower bridge, to create<br />

four large cabins amidships.<br />

Located astern, the large master cabin is<br />

separated from the engine room by a utility<br />

room accessed from the cockpit and the lar-<br />
