"Vous êtes le premier à tirer des ficelles dans la mer" ("You are the first to pull the strings in the sea"). So wrote Prince Rainier III of Monaco to Carlo Riva when he saw the first two floating pontoons in the beautiful bay of Port Hercules.

Riva boats and the Monaco Boat Service – a timeless combination of elegance and seafaring. For 60 years, the Italian luxury brand Riva has been shaping the world of motorboats with its unmistakable combination of exquisite design and first-class craftsmanship. The gleaming mahogany motorboats, especially the legendary Aquarama, embody an unmistakable style and stand for the highest quality.

In 1959, Carlo Riva, the nautical visionary, chose Monte-Carlo as the backdrop for his boats and founded the Monaco Boat Service (MBS). The connection between Riva and the MBS became an icon of maritime elegance. Under the leadership of his daughter, Lia Riva, MBS continues the tradition and presents the timeless beauties of Riva in the heart of Monaco.

The Riva boats, characterized by fine woods, the finest details and an incomparable aesthetic, are not only watercraft, but works of art on the sea. The Monaco Boat Service acts as the exclusive port for these masterpieces, and the floating pontoons in the bay of Port Hercules offer a breathtaking sight.

The partnership between Riva and Monaco Boat Service is not only a union of boats and a service, but also a symbol of style, tradition and timeless elegance on the waves of the Côte d’Azur. In the gallery of Quai Antoine 1er, the lounge dedicated to the Aquarama tells the stories of Carlo Riva’s dreams in mahogany and of an era in which luxury and nautical have merged into a timeless symbiosis.

Riva boats and celebrities – a glamorous alliance on the world’s oceans. For decades, Riva’s luxury motorboats have attracted the attention and enthusiasm of many celebrities from the entertainment industry, high society and the sports world. The iconic models such as the Aquarama and the Rivarama not only stand for excellent craftsmanship and refined design, but also for a lifestyle in a class of its own.

From movie stars to music legends, Riva boats have a long list of celebrity admirers. The gleaming mahogany boats are not just a means of transport, but rather an expression of elegance and sophistication. The timeless aesthetic and impeccable finish have made Riva a preferred choice for discerning personalities who want to be as stylish on the water as they are on land.
