RIANA II is a motor yacht made for life in the open air. Her decks are spacious and given over to living outside. There is room to stretch out in full sun and shaded corners to sit with a book or a cold drink, with enough distance between them that guests can keep company or keep to themselves as they please. Inside, her interiors are refined in a quiet, restful way, rooms that ask nothing of you after a long swim. She carries herself with steady assurance, and how the hours aboard unfold is entirely your choice.
What sets her apart is how seriously she takes the water. An Onda chase boat runs alongside her, so waterskis, a wakeboard, a kneeboard and tubes can be brought out wherever the water lies calm, without the yacht herself having to move. Seabobs let swimmers glide just beneath the surface, and a Jetski covers ground quickly between coves. For slower hours there is a SUP, a Petal Paddleboard and a canoe, along with flippers for exploring the shallows and fishing gear for the patient. Guests who want an active time on the water will find little missing.
Her crew are professional and attentive, handling navigation, the table and the toys, so that a guest's decisions come down to where to swim next and when to eat. An Avon tender ferries guests to shore for a walk or a meal and brings them back whenever they are ready. She cruises in Greece, where short passages and sheltered anchorages suit her well: time under way in the morning, the toys in the water before lunch, and a quiet bay to settle into by evening.
