The Riva Historical Society (RHS) was founded in 1998 in Milan, Italy by Piero Gibellini and fellow Riva owners, including Carlo Riva, who is our Honorary President.
RHS reorganized in 2001 into a federation, whereby its members are actually affiliate clubs located in Europe and elsewhere in the world.
RHS is prohibited from accepting members who are individuals or corporations. Rather, individuals and corporations join regional clubs, through which they may participate in RHS and regional club activities.
There are more than 750 individuals who are members of affiliate clubs worldwide, which is a significant accomplishment considering the short time RHS has been in existence, as well as the geographical and cultural differences involved.
The Antique & Classic Boat Society is dedicated to connecting people who love and enjoy classic boats.
Membership in the Society provides access to an active community of classic boat enthusiasts and a broad range of resources.
Since its founding in 1975 on the shores of Lake George, New York, The Antique and Classic Boat Society, Inc. (ACBS) has grown into the largest society in the world dedicated to the preservation and enjoyment of classic boats. We embrace all styles of classic wood, fiberglass and metal boats.
With 6,800 family memberships (approximately 11,500 individuals), ACBS connects people with the common interest in classic boats to share fellowship, information, experiences and ideas.
Each year ACBS Chapters organize more than 100 classic boat shows, boating events, and gatherings throughout North America. There is truly something for everyone.
THE EVOLUTION OF A LEGEND
The history of Riva starts with the unique and inimitable know-how that continues to be the secret behind the brand’s winning style and beauty. In 1842, on Lake Iseo, a young shipwright performed a miracle.
