ON GOING AND FINISHED RESTORATIONS.
Each year you will have to take good care of your boat to keep it in good shape and well functional. But sooner or later your Riva will need a bigger restoration to get it back to it´s original glory!
The easy way is to just send it to a restoration yard and open your wallet, but still you will have to make a lot of desicions that will effect the result of the restoration.
Others are happy enough to have the time, right infrastructure and skills that make it possible to do all the job themself.
What ever your choice will be there is always valuable experience to share with others.
Welcome to the restorers! (Below you will find some restoration reports, mostly in Swedish…)
