living at sea<br />
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 />

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 />
