Amid a display of theatrical fog and lights, the inaugural Riviera 58 SMY made a captivating debut. Delighting the audience, it executed a graceful pirouette before docking, revealing its profile in all its glory.
The latest model provided a sneak peek into the future, with Riviera's Sports Motor Yacht (SMY) range now boasting six impressive models, including the 46, 50, 64, 72, and the original 68.
For those in the market for a new Riviera 58 Sports Motor Yacht there is much to admire. This vessel is defined by its versatility and attention to detail, designed to cater to the adventurous spirit while never compromising on comfort or style. The yacht includes an all-water sports cockpit for the thrill-seekers and walk-around side decks that lead to a foredeck lounge — an ideal spot for entertaining or simply soaking up the sun.
The alfresco deck on the Riviera 58 SMY is a testament to the yacht's dedication to relaxation, with options for convertible lounges and a well-appointed barbecue center, perfect for social gatherings at sea. Both sides of the alfresco deck feature glass quarter panels offering one-way privacy and protection from the elements.
The air-conditioned flybridge of the 58 Sports Motor Yacht elevates comfort with its innovative design. Spacious and well-appointed, it resembles more of a saloon, offering commanding water views with a remarkably quiet ride.
Mirroring the saloon below, the flybridge opens to the aft deck, creating a splendid private retreat or boutique entertaining area. This area features a wrap-around corner lounge, folding timber table, wet bar, refrigerator, sink, and a solid surface benchtop. For the skipper's convenience, the aft deck includes an additional joystick control station with excellent visibility for precise docking or sport fishing.
The L-shaped designer lounge, complete with a matching ottoman coffee table, provides plush comfort, and there's a drawer fridge for refreshments. An ingenious slide-out double bed offers extra accommodation for guests or crew on overnight passages.
A forward central stairway leads from the saloon to the light-filled and substantial accommodation deck that includes three luxurious staterooms, three bathrooms, and versatile spaces that can serve as a utility room, crew cabin, or even a mini-gym.
As a utility room, diving and fishing gear can be passed down from the cockpit via the engine room and stowed; or you can use this space as a personalised laundry with a separate washer and dryer, easily accessed via the walk-in wardrobe in the master suite.
The accommodation is a layout of three staterooms all with private facilities, featuring a full-beam master suite with a private bathroom and a cedar-lined walk-in wardrobe, as well as an optional breakfast bar and fridge.
For those seeking convenience and style, the 58 SMY offers options such as a winged sports pack arch to the flybridge hardtop to carry radar and communications domes, and stabilization features like gyroscopic or fin stabilization to ensure a smooth journey.
Additionally, the yacht is equipped with the latest in smart technology, including the Volvo Penta Assisted Docking system, which simplifies docking and maneuvering in challenging conditions. The deliberate, slow pirouette, which captivated the launch audience, perfectly showcased the yacht's impressive maneuverability.
Powering this magnificent vessel are twin Volvo Penta D13 IPS 1350s, rated at 1000hp (735kW), housed in an easily accessible full-height engine room. Riviera's commitment to owner care is evident in the comprehensive warranty package, including a five-year limited warranty on engines, drives, and electronics, supported by Riviera's seven-year structural and two-year express limited warranty.
