Riva yachts are renowned for their top-quality fittings and exceptional craftsmanship, and 'Mistigris' is no exception. Originally imported from Italy by the famed Griffith family—then owners of the Canucks—this yacht carries a unique history. The current owner, after investing over $150,000 in upgrades over two years, had planned for this to be the family’s “forever” yacht. However, a change in plans now offers your family the chance to embark on new adventures with this exceptional vessel.
