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.
did video say this is the most valuable mechanical object in the world? its very very nice, but really?
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. Image Unavailable, Please Login
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........
