Spotlight: Riviera 6000 Sport Yacht Platinum Edition

The largest model to receive Riviera’s premium Platinum Edition makeover builds on a foundation already known for its handsome proportions

Riviera says its Riviera 6000 Sport Yacht is said to be one of the prettiest of the luxury yacht brand’s extensive line-up.

The Platinum Edition refinements rolled out to this model take the yacht to another level.

“There’s an exuberance about this yacht, a sparkle and a presence that reflects her star quality,” Riviera owner Rodney Longhurst says. “The 6000 is a world-class performer with a global vision and purpose.”

Powering the Riviera 600 Sport Yacht Platinum Edition are twin 725hp, 10.8-litre Volvo Penta IPS 950s housed in the 6000’s cleanly laid-out engine room,

“Delivering a smooth and quiet ride when cruising, the 6000 accelerates briskly to a very sporty top speed,” Riviera says.

It says the main deck hard top is extended to enhance the sleekness, while also integrating an electric sunroof.

“Sitting below, it’s cosy, cocooned and comfortable. Step inside the saloon, and the galley is located to port, now featuring waterfall galley benchtops with stainless steel sinks and mixer tap.”

Inside the saloon, glass skylights richly illuminate the aft area, and a radar arch allows the sunroof to slide beneath.

“Forward is a sunroof that, with the addition of side-opening windows and aft awning window, creates a seamless indoor/outdoor world,” Riviera says.

The starboard-side lounge of the Riviera 6000 Sport Yacht Platinum Edition adds a centre seat with a sliding base that becomes an ottoman, and includes a small fold-out timber table.

“The dining area lounge base is upholstered to give an opulent look, and the seating in this area has been extended,’ Riviera says.

New-style Pompanette helm seats with Alcantara inserts and feature stitching feature in the Riviera 6000 Sport Yacht Platinum Edition’s helm station.

“Moving below, you come to the atrium, a corridor filled with light to accentuate the crisp architectural look and feel,” Riviera says. “Accommodation layout options vary according to buyer preferences but include the option of a palatial presidential master suite.”
Riviera says the list of refinements throughout the sports yacht is subtle yet significant, showing considerable thought for the vessel’s overall user-friendliness.

For that final touch of Platinum, grey caulking is utilised in teak decks instead of the conventional black.
