The evolution of the beloved 100′ Corsaro, the Riva 102′ Corsaro Super, aims to redefine the yachting experience for all by bringing together the best of exceptional functionality, contemporary Italian design, and advanced technology. Unveiled in early 2023 as part of Riva’s iconic flybridge series, the 30.24 meter 102′ Corsaro Super features several enhancements based on her smaller sister’s tried-and-tested platform that elevates onboard living and connectivity to the open waters. From her elongated, sinuous exterior profile to her innovative open-air lounge at water level, to her redesigned stern with a garage for water toys, and interiors adorned with luxurious materials like Nero Marquina marble and stainless steel, the 102′ Corsaro Super is designed to offer a revised flybridge cruising experience. Here, we take a closer look at some of the key features that truly set her apart from the rest of her class.
Direct connection to the sea
One of the standout features of the 102′ Corsaro Super is her enhanced connection to the surroundings. While creating her design, the co-founders of Officina Italiana Design, Mauro Micheli and Sergio Beretta, reimagined the aft section to include a water-level lounge, a first for superyacht-sized Rivas. A seamless feeling space, it blends effortlessly with the main deck, offering guests the choice of lounging by the water’s edge or enjoying elevated views from the aft deck above. The innovative stern design also houses a tender garage, smoothly integrated with the swim platform for ease of use without compromising style or functionality.
Redesigned outdoor living spaces
The main deck aft has been meticulously designed to prioritize outdoor living. With a spacious lounge arrangement, it serves as a social hub for her owners and guests to relax, dine, and take in breathtaking views. This main outdoor area is complemented by a large flybridge and a stepped bow lounge, providing multiple vantage points to soak up the scenery. Each space flows harmoniously into the next, reflecting Riva’s broader commitment to creating yachts that blend form and function.
Bright, airy interiors
Inside, the full-beam master suite on the main deck serves as a leading example for light and openness. Enlarged hull windows provide panoramic sea views while allowing natural light to flood the space. Thanks to the work of the Officina Italiana Design, this design philosophy extends throughout the 102′ Corsaro Super, where the use of glass, polished steel, and light Canaletto walnut joinery creates an inviting and sophisticated atmosphere. Riva does offer several customization options, allowing owners to tailor the interiors and layout to their preferences, whether prioritizing entertainment or privacy.
Impressive performance & classification
The 102′ Corsaro Super complies with the latest RINA classification standards, incorporating advanced naval architecture to ensure safety and efficiency. Featuring twin MTU engines, she has a top speed of 26 knots, a cruising speed of 23 knots, and a range of 310 nautical miles when at cruising speed, making her ideal for exploring secluded destinations or island hopping in complete luxury and style. Enhanced sound-dampening systems add to the comfort, ensuring a quiet and serene journey, no matter where her owners take her.
From its reimagined outdoor spaces to its light-filled interiors and advanced technical features, the Riva 102′ Corsaro Super reaffirms the yard’s success of delivering Italian elegance and functionality in innovative designs.
