Is the Aquarama considered a luxury boat?
The Aquarama is the speedboat of choice for celebrities and the international jet set, and considered an icon of luxury speedboats. The most famous of Carlo Riva’s designs, the Aquarama has gained over the decades a legendary nautical reputation. Its evocative name, derived in part from the widescreen Cinerama movie format popular in the early 1960s, echoed in its sweeping wrap-around windshield, conjures images from another time.
