    Rivas are stunning boats, one of the best luxury/sport brands in the world. The Aquarama is an icon, Mr. Lamborghini had a great idea putting his own engines in one of them.

    Sadly all the restorers don't know the correct white/pale blue material for the motorboats seats, the dashboard and the mats was the ©Resinflex, a syntetic anti-UV fabric patented in 1949 at Turin. The Resinflex company, which closed the factory last year definitively, was the Riva supplier since the beginning until the late 80s. I wrote a book about it.

    And no one knows/remembers that after a couple of years running the Lamborghini V-12's, they were removed and the original Riva 454 GM V8's were reinstalled so the boat would run reliably and could be sold........;)
