Worth knowing
Riva; cover, cost and conditions
Riva from Sarnico has been building since 1842 and is the only boat brand with genuine collector status. Alongside the modern models, the classic mahogany boats, above all the Aquarama, are a chapter of their own: their value rises instead of falling.
That is precisely what makes the insurance special. With a classic Riva, any valuation based on the year of construction is pointless; what is needed is an agreed value based on a valuation report that reflects the collectors' market, and it should be adjusted regularly. With wooden hulls there is a further point: restoration is handwork carried out by a few specialist yards, and repair costs are correspondingly high. Both belong in the discussion before the policy is taken out, not in the event of a claim.

As the Rivamare 38 / Iseo 27, Aquariva Super,
Iseo / Rivamare by Riva and 2 more series are still in production,
parts are available and repair costs are predictable.
Even so, value it at replacement cost including retrofitted electronics, not at list price.
For the Aquarama (classic) and Ariston / Junior (classic) by Riva series there is no list price
left.
That is why we work with an agreed value: you state the figure, we agree it,
and in a total loss exactly that amount is paid, with no deduction for wear.
For the Rivamare 38 / Iseo 27, Aquariva Super, Iseo / Rivamare by Riva and further series:
On motor yachts the drive and the electronics together make up about half the value.
Both belong in the valuation, otherwise the sum insured is too low.
For the Aquarama (classic), Ariston / Junior (classic) by Riva series:
On a motorboat the drive is the single most valuable part.
Damage after grounding is covered, an engine failure from wear is not.
