RIVA 70 DOLCEVITA
History
My yacht, built by the RIVA shipyard, is hull no. 8 of the 22 units of the DOLCEVITA model produced. It received its first navigation certificate in September 1999, before being delivered to its first owner.
In August 2003, I acquired it when it had logged 180 hours of navigation. In September of the same year, I had it transported to the RIVA shipyard for a complete overhaul with several upgrades. The work was completed in April 2005. Since then, I have maintained it with the utmost care.
