Riviera 395 SUV Rivals

Which yacht is best for you? As always, it’s all about personal choice. Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the planing hull of the 395 delivers speeds of up to 36 knots.

Accommodation

The Riviera 395 offers a versatile accommodation layout that caters to both day boating enthusiasts and those who may occasionally seek overnight or weekend getaways. Additionally, its maximum guest capacity of five ensures there's ample space for a small group of friends or family, making it suitable for day outings with the possibility of occasional overnight or weekend use. Conversely, some of its rivals like the Tiara Yachts 39 Open with its simpler one cabin configurations may be better suited for day boating enthusiasts who prioritize open-water adventures and occasional overnight escapes.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Riviera 395 delivers a steady 25 knots and can't keep up with its faster competitors such as the Sundeck Yachts 430 with an impressive cruising speed of 30 knots or the Tiara Yachts 43 Open with a respectable cruising speed of 31 knots. The Riviera 395 emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed, catering to a different set of priorities. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Tiara Yachts C44, with the slowest cruising speed of 27 knots, emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed and enjoying the journey over the destination.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Tiara Yachts C44 impresses with its extensive range of 1,224 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Sealine S430, Jeanneau 43 and Sundeck Yachts 430 all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The Tiara Yachts 43 Open focuses on performance and efficiency, with a cruising speed of 31 knots. Meanwhile, the Sundeck Yachts 430 offers the best raw performance, with a maximum speed of 36 knots.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Riviera 395 SUV stands out with notable features and design elements. These yachts cater to a wide range of preferences and needs, making the choice a matter of personal taste and specific requirements in the world of luxury yachting.
