Rio has a long and productive history of boat building with 35.000 boats being produced over more than 40 years. From the start of the 60s mahogany built RIO yachts have plied the Mediterranean to put into port at all the European markets. Motor yachts built with expert knowledge and mastery in an era which culminated with the contract with Rolls Royce to build a model with a V8 engine, the maximum expression of these two prestigious brands.
In the 70s with technological innovations, RIO was the first to pioneer the production of boats built of thermal moulded Ravikral, with over 2000 a year being produced. With the arrival of fibreglass, RIO began to build double hulled boats with polyurethane injected into the mouldings. In this way boats of up to 8 metres in length could be built which were virtually unsinkable. In the 90s RIO was able to come up to the highest standards of the most exacting sportsmen and fishermen by producing a range of over 20 models reaching lengths of up to 17 metres. European expertise is part of RIO's heritage. RIO has always produced its boats in Italy and n Spain and is supported by a sales network across 15 countries.
The quality of RIO craft is due to the projects carried out exclusively for the company by the Scarani engineers and technical staff. Innovation and reliability are two of the criteria which RIO technical team adhere to when designing the new models. The project and the building of the boats includes the use of sandwich structures which optimise the weight of the craft making them extremely robust. The training given to our staff and the continual selection of our suppliers guarantees high standards in the building of the boats produced on the assembly line. The robustness and quality of the boat's build, the care in the details and the high performance of the engines specially adapted to each model make up the typical characteristics of a boat leaving the RIO boat building yards.
