Thumb up for not playing music. This is the first vid I found wo music. I love this engine sound....

[@JolietJake64]

Check out the Riva Lamborghini.

60s styling just can’t be beaten

[@paulh2981]

My friend's dad had one of these back in the 1970s. I don't know if it was the same model, but it looked a lot like this. I remember how amazingly car-like it was.

[@akaramp.]

Idk what’s more incredible, the fact that the boat handled like a 60s car or that a 60s car felt so boatish that you couldn’t tell the difference lol

[@phylisscraddock923]

I admire the craftsmanship ❤ much respect 🇮🇹

+diamonddog257 NO :)

[@onecookieboy]

Unlikely.

[@MrRoccoyunior]

....avevo 11 anni quando papà c diceva turbo boost si sprigionavano 750 cavalli che sullo stretto di messina con la chiglia da lago immaginate voi sembrava di decollare certe legnate !!!!!

[@suzoneux5717]

Quand on aime ce bateau, on aime le son des moteurs et de l eau sur la coque , la musique on s'en fiche...

[@henrikl1394]

Stunning boat, but the fastest she is not....There is one with Lamborghini V12.

[@Loulovesspeed]

@henrikl1394 - That would be the Riva Aquarama Lamborghini - two 4.0 liter, 350 HP V12s! Top speed was 55 MPH.

[@onecookieboy]

@@Loulovesspeed 50 knots would be more than 55MPH (57.5 MPH).

[@Loulovesspeed]

@@onecookieboy Good point, but the narrator said "almost" 50 knots, so they were essentially just as fast. Personally, I would prefer the obvious status of having Lambo V12s powering my Riva than Cadillac engines! I'll guarantee you the Lamborghini Riva is worth considerably more than the Caddy powered one!

[@jkoysza1]

Rev-happy Lamborghini engines are not well suited as boat motors. Give me twin Cadillacs reworked for maximum torque and Sharrow propellers! Of course, a Grace Kelly lookalike would finish it off nicely.
