2023 Riva 68 Diable
About This Yacht
This stunning 2023 Riva 68 Diable represents the pinnacle of Italian open yacht design, blending aggressive sportiness with surprising liveability. Hull #6 arrives in the sophisticated metallic shark grey finish, equipped with an exceptional specification that includes Seakeeper stabilization, premium sound systems, and comprehensive entertainment features that elevate this already incomparable yacht to new heights of performance and luxury.
The Riva 68 Diable embodies the storied shipyard's racing DNA while delivering the comfort and refinement expected from the legendary Sarnico brand. This particular example showcases the model's versatility as a true Mediterranean sportivo—equally at home carving through azure waters at exhilarating speeds or hosting sophisticated gatherings in sun-drenched anchorages. The thoughtful specification includes both manual carbon-pole sunshades for bow and stern areas, creating comfortable outdoor living spaces without compromising the yacht's sleek lines. With barely 105 hours on her twin MAN V12 engines, this Diable remains essentially new, yet fully commissioned and ready for her next chapter.
The owner's attention to detail is evident throughout, from the elegant grey caulking in the teak decking that complements the shark grey hull to the ambient lighting that transforms evening entertaining. Premium upgrades include the larger 19kW Onan generator for extended off-grid capability, proportional bow and stern thrusters for precise maneuvering, and underwater lighting that creates a stunning visual presence at anchor. The decision to configure the yacht with additional storage rather than crew quarters reflects a focus on owner-operator enjoyment and extended cruising independence.
Every element of this Diable has been considered for the discerning yachtsman who appreciates both performance and practicality. The Williams 345 Sport Jet tender with electric launch system provides effortless shore access, while the premium internet package ensures connectivity throughout coastal cruising grounds. From the cocktail accessories and ice maker in the cockpit to the beach towels and customized covers, this yacht arrives turn-key and ready to deliver the Riva experience from day one.
Machinery & Systems Twin MAN V12 diesel engines deliver a combined 4,157 horsepower through inboard configuration, providing the thrilling performance that defines the Diable lineage while maintaining the refinement expected from this premium marque. With only 105 hours since her 2023 commissioning, these powerplants remain in as-new condition. The upgraded 19kW Onan generator surpasses the standard 17.5kW unit, ensuring robust electrical capacity for extended periods at anchor with all systems running, supported by a dedicated generator battery charger. Precision boat handling is assured through proportional bow and stern thrusters that provide intuitive control in tight quarters and challenging conditions. The Seakeeper NG9 gyroscopic stabilization system represents a significant enhancement, virtually eliminating roll at anchor and dramatically improving comfort underway in beam seas. The comprehensive electrical system includes strategically placed USB sockets throughout the lower deck accommodations—two in the master cabin, two in the VIP cabin, and one in the guest cabin—ensuring modern connectivity for all guests.
Navigation & Electronics The helm station features a comprehensive Simrad electronics suite with an additional 16-inch plotter display beyond the standard configuration, providing enhanced situational awareness and redundancy for the captain. The Premium Internet Package combines coastal 4G connectivity with onboard Wi-Fi network capability, ensuring reliable communication and entertainment streaming throughout your cruising grounds. The External Premium Sound Pack HQ8 surpasses the standard audio system, delivering exceptional sound quality throughout exterior spaces for entertaining or simply enjoying your favorite music while underway. White LED underwater lighting includes two lights per side plus two additional transom-mounted lights, creating a dramatic nighttime presence and illuminating the water for late-night swimming. The ambient lighting system extends throughout the yacht, allowing customizable mood settings for various occasions. All navigation and communication systems integrate seamlessly at the helm, providing the captain with intuitive control over every aspect of the yacht's operation.
Accommodations The interior layout maximizes the 68-foot platform with intelligent space planning that prioritizes owner comfort and guest entertainment. The master cabin provides a private sanctuary forward, while the VIP cabin offers equal comfort for guests or family. An additional guest cabin ensures accommodation flexibility for extended cruising. The galley features a built-in combined oven that expands culinary capabilities beyond the standard configuration, while the addition of a washing and drying machine in lieu of standard storage reflects a focus on extended cruising practicality. Throughout the accommodations, upgraded carpeting enhances the refined atmosphere, while carefully selected cushions and soft furnishings create an inviting environment. The decision to configure the yacht with additional storage rather than a crew cabin provides owners with enhanced independence and privacy, along with practical space for extended voyage provisions, water toys, and personal effects. Each cabin benefits from thoughtful details including dedicated USB charging points and premium finishes that showcase Riva's commitment to craftsmanship.
Deck & Exterior The cockpit serves as the yacht's social hub, featuring grey-caulked teak decking that complements the shark grey hull while providing a secure, non-slip surface. An integrated ice maker and 36-liter drawer refrigerator ensure effortless entertaining, while the complete set of cocktail accessories adds a sophisticated touch to sundowner gatherings. The electro-hydraulic swimming ladder conceals seamlessly into the platform when not in use, maintaining clean lines while providing secure water access. Two additional cleats on the stern platform enhance mooring flexibility and tender management. The aft raised platform features matching grey-caulked teak, while stern steps incorporate contrasting black caulking for visual interest and practicality. Manual sunshades with elegant carbon fiber poles protect both bow and stern areas, creating comfortable outdoor living spaces without the complexity of electric systems. A transparent stern cover provides weather protection when needed. The Williams Tender 345 Sport Jet stores efficiently and launches via an integrated electric system, ensuring the tender remains a convenience rather than a complication. Customized covers protect the yacht when not in use, while included beach towels and a versatile pouf add thoughtful finishing touches to the outdoor experience.
