Riviera has finally shipped its first flagship 75 Enclosed Flybridge to her new owners… in New Zealand.
Project manager Paul Wrench, ex-Azzura Yachts, said the 75’s large cockpit would be excellent for both sport fishing and entertaining.
“The beauty of this vessel is that it is a self-contained luxury home that can take you anywhere in the world, as it has its own desalinator system and twin generator to supply all the power needed to live aboard in absolute luxury,” Wrench said.
R Marine New Zealand dealer principal Bruce McGill said the owners of the new 75 had owned a number of Riviera flybridge boats previously.
“It’s a trend that we are now seeing return, as Riviera owners are wanting to move up to a larger model with more accommodation and the latest technology.
“Many of our owners want to travel further afield and stay aboard for longer periods of time.
“The 75 is certainly the ultimate Riviera in this regard and the largest boat built by Riviera in its 32 year history,” McGill added.
The Riviera 75 is a reworked version of the 70 with a longer hull, extended flying-bridge deck and 33-plus knot top speed using twin 1850hp C32 Cats or upgraded MTU 1940hp engines.
The first 75, the subject of this news item, is the seventh 70-plus footer the factory has built and claims the title of largest semi-production flybridge boat built in Australia.
Base price is $4.9 million. More at riviera.com.au
