Riviera 6000 Sport Yacht (Gen 1, 2014 - 2019) 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 6000 delivers speeds of up to 30 knots.

Accommodation

If your priority is guest accommodation then the Riviera 6000 offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 10 guests with its 4 cabin layout option. The 6000 benefits from a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, hull side windows and a walk-in wardrobe is a standout. The Fairline Targa 63 GTO and Riviera 6000 Sport Yacht, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 8 guests in 4 cabins, still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family getaways.

Performance

In terms of cruising performance, the Riviera 6000 leads the way with an impressive cruising speed of 26 knots thanks to its twin 725hp Volvo Penta D11-IPS950 engines and maximum speed of 30 knots at 2,500rpm. Closely followed by, the Fairline Targa 63 GTO with a respectable cruising speed of knots. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Fairline Targa 63 GTO, with the slowest cruising speed of 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 shallow draft of the Riviera 6000 Sport Yacht allows it to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels.
