Autore 890 Classic
This is a rare opportunity to own a custom-built timber V-cabin runabout finished to a high standard. Styled in the tradition of the legendary Riva-style runabout, this 8.9m vessel pairs a timeless silhouette — high-gloss timber hull, teal boot-stripe, and polished chrome fittings- with the reliability and efficiency of modern twin Volvo Penta D4-260HP diesel engines, Duo Prop Stern Drives with only 55 hours running time on the meter, a significant upgrade over the petrol powerplants found in vintage originals.
Autore 890 Classic
This is a rare opportunity to own a custom-built timber runabout finished to an exceptionally high standard. Styled in the tradition of the legendary Riva-style runabout, this 9m vessel pairs a timeless silhouette, high-gloss timber hull, teal boot-stripe, and polished chrome fittings with the reliability and efficiency of modern twin Volvo Penta D4-260 diesel engines, Stern Drive, a significant upgrade over the petrol powerplants found in vintage originals.
Built in 2020 in Dubai and used sparingly, the boat presents in excellent condition. It's a genuine custom build; no two are alike, making it a standout choice for collectors, classic boat enthusiasts, or anyone after a distinctive tender or day boat.
Mechanically, she's just as impressive as she looks: the twin Volvo Penta D4-260s are up to date with servicing and maintenance, giving buyers real peace of mind alongside the low hours. The drive legs present beautifully, free of the corrosion or wear so often seen on boats of this age.
Step aboard, and it's immediately clear this isn't just a boat; it's a statement. Every curve of that mirror-polished mahogany hull turns heads at the marina, and the deep, confident growl of twin diesels underfoot delivers the kind of presence that off-the-shelf fibreglass simply can't match. Whether cruising the harbour at golden hour or arriving in style at the yacht club, this is the boat people stop and stare at a true one-of-one that lets you own something no one else on the water has.
The boat is currently located out of the water in Sydney and available for any inspection.
Note: Boat is sitting on storage trailer only. Trailer is not included.
