Riva 92′ Duchessa Megayacht

Beautiful Passengers Not Included…Yet

If you’ve got millions lying around in your “toy” fund this year, we’d suggest cleaning it out on this.

In the world of yachting, the Riva name speaks for itself, so you need not worry about getting anything less than the finest in Italian design and engineering. Plus, at 92 feet, the Duchessa is far less ostentatious than the company’s flagship, the 115′ Athena.

In terms of interior space, this jewel of the sea will sleep six with all the comfort of a suite at the Mandarin along with plenty of socializing space to spare. So make some calls to friends, prep the jet, and head on over to the Mediterranean. Your Christmas get-a-way plans just got settled.

Oh, and if you’re feeling slightly scroogey, have your guests chip in for gas. Whether you mention that the tank holds 2,378 gallons is a matter of personal discretion.

Editor’s Note: Guests curious to see their on-board digs? Check out more photos after the jump.

    Come on, this yacht must be far more than $0.75M! I took a look in Showboat magazine a few weeks ago and saw something not so different from this for over $25M. Can we do a price check on this?- Not that I can afford it either way, but at least with the former price I may hope one day…, whereas the latter price is out of my dreams’ league…

    Edmond thanks for pointing this out as you are indeed correct. The information I pulled from the brochure was for chartering it for a week! In terms of actual purchasing prices though, Riva stated that they would only make them available upon request since the finished product is meticulously customized to the buyers needs. Guess we’ll have to ask Warren Buffet to inquire on our behalf.
