Ferruccio Lamborghini

[60sStuff]

Absolutely the most beautiful wood boat ever built ..... Riva.

Attention to detail and only the highest quality of all components went into these boats.

Italian Carlos Riva built wood speed boats like Ferruccio Lamborghini built Super Cars. The Best of the Best.

These two master builders hooked up on the water and made a “one of a kind” boat.

Mr. Lamborghini took delivery of Hull #278 in May 1968.

Dissatisfied with the standard V-8, Ferruccio had “two” V-12 installed.

This boat instantly became the fastest Aquarama in the world.

People on the lake and shoreline said it sounded like thunder, of the 12 dual throat carbs howling.

Google “The Riva Lamborghini Story”. It’s amazing!
Also YouTube the test on the lake. What a rush.

PS, check out that steering wheel, gorgeous!
