Pegiva Luxury Boats

The first model, the Classic, was made from Brazilian mahogany, with 22 coats of protective polyurethane, which produced a finish similar to that of a grand piano. It took two men a whole year to finish just one.

From the Classic the RetroSun was born, a composite hull to increase durability and reduce maintenance. The trademark Brazilian mahogany inserts and timber-laid decks remained to add a touch of nostalgia, deck fittings are custom made and cast in 316 solid stainless steel, then highly polished to a mirror like finish.

The RetroSun is 7.5 metres in length, with a beam of 2.3 metres and seating for five.

The majority of boats are exported to Netherlands, USA, Switzerland, Germany and Dubai.

The Pegiva brand is firmly established in Europe where their sporty mix of speed and style has made them a highly sought-after superyacht accessory.

Pegiva recently shipped a Retro Sun across the Pacific to Florida and into the waiting arms of famous performer, Billy Joel. The Piano Man came across the Pegiva website early in 2006 when he googled retro boats and made a mental note to check out Pegiva when he toured to Australia in November 2006.When he returned to Florida and showed the brochures to his next door neighbour, he ordered one too, sight unseen.

The Passion Continues...

The Eclipse 33 was lanched at the Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show in May 2008.

The Eclipse is 10.1 metres, with a beam of 3.1 metres, has a double bunk, shower and head below and is fitted with a Fridge and sink. This larger boat can be registered as a commuter for up to 10 people.

The RetroSun is fitted with either a Mercruiser 350 MPI Horizon V8, 300hp engine or a Steyr 256H turbo diesel in line six, 250 engine. They boast a top speed of about 44 knots or a comfortable cruising speed of 26 knots.

The eclipse has the same option in engines. With the first Eclipse fitted Twin 280hp diesels provided the Eclipse with a cruising speed of 34 knots and a top speed of 45 knots.
