RIO YACHTS – Historical Italian yacht builder
Historical Italian yacht builder
We continue to work to guarantee our costumers the delivery of their dreams, following carefully the directives provided by the Italian Government for COVID-19 and in order to protect our costumers, collaborators and suppliers.
Stay strong and never stop yachting with your mind.
20th June 2019 in Portofino our foundress Mrs Anna Scarani was rewarded as “Pioniere della Nautica” (Nautical Pioneer) from UCINA Association.
We are very proud and happy about this award: Mrs Anna Scarani with his husband Mr. Luigi Scarani founded RIO in 1961, 58 years ago, when the yachting sector was in its infancy.
2017 will be a year full of novelties for Bergamo’s historic boat yard RIO YACHTS: in spring “Granturismo 58 S” and Spider 40″ will make their world début. With 55 years of experience in the industry, Rio Yachts has produced two yachts that stand out for their aesthetics, seaworthiness and innovative solutions.
Granturismo 58 S
Following the request of a prestigious US client, Granturismo 58, the yard’s flagship, becomes the GT “S”, emphasising its sporty spirit and superior propulsion.
The new flagship boasts the same sporty lines as her predecessor, harmony of proportions and combines functionality (which is typically North American) with sumptuous materials. A pure “Made in Italy”, “Granturismo 58 S” boasts quality, history, culture, style and art.
A tailor-made yacht that reflects the client’s personal taste, personality and uniqueness.
Some figures: 19 metres long, 4.80-meter beam, twin Caterpillar 1,000 HP engines, reaching a maximum speed of 36 knots, with a 30 gross tonnage. The yacht’s hull features large glass surfaces, which fill the interior with abundant natural light, and sports iridescent grey and anthracite colours; the same chosen by the owner for his private jet.
From stern to bow: the very large bathing platform is equipped with a 1.20-metre-reach crane to launch a 4.40-metre tender. The crew cabin, which is optional, can be accessed from stern and boasts direct access to the engine room. Aft, the yacht is equipped with a huge L-shaped sofa, ideal to sunbathe, a telescopic hydraulic awning and a concealable door that allows to separate the outside form the inside but, when necessary, disappears completely in the roof (a distinctive feature that RIO YACHTS boasts on many of its models). The deckhouse features a spacious dinette and a fully equipped helm station, boasting all the latest comforts and technologies.
The habitable deckhouse features a bimini and Esthec and glass flooring, flooding the interior with natural light.
The yacht’s décor is characterized by the care for the smallest of details. Antolini stones have been used throughout, for the bathrooms’ floors and walls, the table tops, the galley’s counter, the helm station’s console, the desk top and the surface tops in the owner’s cabin. Additionally, the yacht features dark woods, soft lights, Armani Casa Textiles by Rubelli…
The boat owner spared no expense, especially as far as equipment is concerned. The yacht boasts gyroscopic stabilizer, bow and aft propellers with joystick, 5 electrically controlled concealable televisions, a feature also boasted by the tables, large fridges, ice-maker, Esthec deck, side decks and cockpit, etc. Undoubtedly a fully equipped yacht.
Spider 40
A day boat, a pure open, Mediterranean, exciting, innovative, modern, fascinating and functional vessel, boasting low, breathtaking lines: the “Spider 40” will be all this and much more.
13 meters in length and equipped with twin inboard-outboard D4-300 engines, the “Spider 40” reflects the philosophy that has always characterized the boatyard, producing sporty, excellent, high-end yachts. The name itself is reminiscent of the sporty, fun, two-seat cars, perfect to enjoy the good season and ensure that wind-in-your-hair thrill; the very soul of the “Spider 40”, a true “Made in Italy”.
The ideal buyer of the Spider 40 is a boat-owner who is looking for an easy to use vessel, an owner who doesn’t sleep on board, but mainly stays at homes or hotels, an owner who desires a glamorous, unique vessel to enjoy the sea: a sort of “party boat” to have fun with family and friends.
Boasting sleek lines, the yacht features a spacious cockpit with a six-seat sofa, a large sunpad area and a small exterior galley equipped with fridge and gas hob. Below deck it has been fitted with four beds and a bathroom equipped with all the necessary features for a short cruise.
As always, attention has been paid to the smallest of details, finishings, materials and all requests from the owner can be customised: all in line with Rio Yacht’s philosophy.
A synthesis between excellency and Italian tradition, the “Spider 40” combines the history of a historic boat yard with 55 years of experience in the industry and the glamours, fascinating, Italian style.
COLORADO 44 nominated for EUROPEAN POWER BOAT OF THE YEAR
We are really proud to announce that new 2016/2017 of RIO YACHTS, Colorado 44, is nominated for the prestigious award “European Power Boat of the Year – 2017″ in under 45” motor yacht category.
Colorado 44 is over 14 m long and can be described as a sporty hard-top, sumptuous and high-performing.
Its teak cockpit is really unique: spacious (8 m2) and completely flat with cockpit and helm station close together in order to enjoy external spaces with friends and guests. It features a large sofa, two tables (the external one becomes a sun lounger), a concealable television and a practical external kitchen with a glass-ceramic cooktop, fridge and microwave oven, separated by a concealable door that can be closed to enjoy the full benefits of the air conditioning during the hottest days, lock the craft more securely, or simply offer more privacy when enjoying a quiet dockside drink; but when open it almost disappears completely to the right, creating one large open space.
ATTENTION! Many people have reported us of a cheater who offers used boats in different website as Rio Yachts Sales Director, asking deposits for nonexistent boats. He use illegally our brand and datas, issuing false invoices.
The company has nothing to do with this transaction and has taken action in the appropriate forums.

E’ di Rio Yachts la miglior donna nautica dell’anno.
E’ stato infatti attribuito ad Anna Ziliani Scarani il premio 2012 ” The Best Marine Woman of the year” nel corso del 52° Salone Nautico Internazionale di Genova da poco concluso.
La carriera di Anna Scarani è lunga e coincide con la storia dell’Avionautica Rio poi “Rio” nata nel 1961 quando il marito Luigi fonda il cantiere e la coinvolge nell’attività.
Dagli splendidi motoscafi in mogano degli anni ’60 costruiti artigianalmente dai maestri d’ascia, Anna Scarani vive il passaggio alla “barca per tutti” stampata in ABS, inaffondabile grazie al poliuretano espanso inserito nell’intercapedine.
E’ un’autentica rivoluzione che, negli anni ’70, apre a migliaia di diportisti europei le vie dell’acqua.
Rio continuerà a innovare in tutto il suo mezzo secolo di storia, fino ad arrivare negli anni 2000 a produrre esclusivi yacht dai 30 ai 60 piedi, ammirati da neofiti e apprezzati da veri intenditori.
Il ruolo di Anna Scarani è stato “comunicare l’azienda”.
“Che marketing ragazzi!” ricorderà più tardi Lucio Petrone, Direttore della rivista Nautica, “presenza ai saloni, advertising sulle riviste, rapporti con la stampa eccezionali per i tempi, formazione del concessionari, Meeting europei, etc..”.
Biondissima, sempre molto elegante, una verve contagiosa, è protagonista al Salone Nautico di Genova a partire dalla seconda edizione.
E per 50 anni le amiche sanno che ad Ottobre Anna non c’è per nessuno.
Ottimista per natura, estroversa, fedele alle amicizie, ora vanta una corona di otto nipoti.
