Riva has retired the 110' Dolcevita. It is gone from the range on riva-yacht.com, gone from the sibling list on every current model page, and the yard publishes no technical data for it any more. Riva's own words on the 112' Dolcevita Super describe that boat as the evolution of this one — which tells you where the model went, and that the two are close relatives rather than the same yacht.
The specifications on this page are the ones we recorded when the boat was current: 110 feet even, a 23'10" beam, twin MTU 16V 2000s at around 2,600 horsepower a side, 26 knots flat out and a 23-knot cruise good for about 430 nautical miles. Five cabins for ten guests, all en-suite, plus a proper crew area, and a main deck given over to a long glass-walled saloon. I have kept every one of those figures rather than blank the table, because a retired boat with a documented history is still a boat you can buy, and a page that tells you nothing helps nobody.
What I will not do is pretend they are live. Nothing here can be re-checked against Riva today, and that is a different thing from a current model where I can point you at the yard's own technical block. Read these numbers as the last good record rather than as a warranty. Two of them are worth watching in particular: the beam, tankage, cruise speed and range are identical to the 112' Dolcevita Super's, which is what you would expect from a successor on the same platform — but it also means a seller quoting you the newer boat's figures would not look obviously wrong.
So buy this one on paperwork. Ask for the original delivery specification for that hull from the yard rather than a broker's summary, the build certificate and CE plate, photographs of the engine model plates on the blocks, the current tank capacities after any refit, and a survey with a sea trial you attend and record speeds at yourself. A retired model with a living successor is often where the value sits in a range, and this is a serious yacht. It just asks more of you before you sign. Send me what comes back and I will read it with you.
