Description
Riva are universally recognized as the most beautiful and the most desirable of all the classic wooden motorboats. Built without compromise, as near to perfection as practically possible, Rivas are acknowledged worldwide as the Bentleys of the sea. The golden age of the wooden Riva began in the late 1940s, and continued until almost the end of the 20th century. The last wooden Riva was completed in 1996.
The Tritone was a pivotal design for Riva, and only their second venture into the fledgling leisure speedboat market of the 1950s. The design marked the transition from the 2-seater, single-engine runabouts that typified the early 20th century, to a much more spacious and useful family dayboat, with more seats, a small cabin and twin engines. This was the coming of age of the wooden speedboat and the beginning of the golden era of La Dolce Vita on The Riviera.
The Tritone entered production in 1950 and was an immediate success. It played a lead role in establishing Riva as the world leader in wooden speedboats, and laid the foundation for the company's meteoric rise to legendary status over the next half century. It remained in production, through various modifications and improvements, until 1966. In all, some 258 Tritones were built.

Jeffrey Gonos was born and raised in Fort Lauderdale, the Yachting Capital of the World, where he was immersed in yachting from a young age. His father, a yacht captain, introduced him to boating, and his times on the water with his family are some of his fondest childhood memories.
Jeff started his career in yachting as a mate and quickly worked his way up to captain. Today, in addition to being a yacht salesman, he is an internationally licensed captain with a 200/500 ton USCG license. Jeff also has been involved in yacht management as an owner’s agent on several major refit projects. During his more than 20 years running boats, he has managed rebuilds, engine replacements, complete electronic upgrades, teak deck replacements, and a variety of other projects.
He began buying and selling boats for owners and clients a few years ago and found he was able to provide an experienced perspective and valuable insight. As a team member at Merle Wood & Associates, one of the most successful brokerage firms in the world, Jeff will focus on the purchase and sale of production motoryachts.
Jeff brings his passion for the ocean and yachting along with extensive knowledge about the boating industry to our expert team of brokerage professionals offering more than 250 years of combined experience representing buyers, sellers, and charterers of motor and sailing yachts of all types and sizes.
