Research 2018 - Riviera Boats - 52 Enclosed Flybridge

~The best of both worlds

Befitting a pleasure boat of this calibre, the Riviera 52 Enclosed Flybridge incorporates clever and convenient alfresco lifestyle concepts and ultramodern technology with luxurious appointments … not to mention enhanced serviceability, savvy storage and an exacting eye for detail from fit to finish that reminds you that she is nothing less than an Australian-built Riviera.

You will sense our hallmark passion for excellence from the moment you step onboard – double transom doors allow better access from both the port and starboard sides in effect adding the large swim platform to what is already a full-scale, no-nonsense cockpit and creating a walk-around transom lounge with additional storage bin for swimming and diving gear.

The swim platform, with lift-out stainless steel rails, also has a number of options to suit individual owner requirements, for example: custom rod holders and a bait preparation station can be fitted for the angler, as well as a 400kg hydraulic lift to assist with tender storage.

Owners have the option of a longer transom lounge, or even a live bait tank with glass front, depending on requirements.

In the deck of the 9.90 square metre (106'6") cockpit are separate hatches – with stainless steel lock-downs – providing direct maintenance access to either of the pod drives, as well as a large, central, self-draining moulded lazarette locker to store cockpit furniture and water toys, and also deep fish bins to port and starboard.
