Summary
This 1974 Riva Aquarama Special 28′ cuddy-cabin runabout has been with its current owner for 33 years, reportedly acquired from its original owner. It underwent extensive refurbishment totaling approximately $130k between 2015 and 2023, including replacement of the transom, deck, and bottom, revarnishing, and painting. Powered by twin Crusader Marine V8s, the boat features white and blue vinyl seating, a curved windscreen, and a port-side helm, though the spotlight is non-functional and cracks are noted near vents and trim pieces.
