Family values

Everyone knows that once you buy a Riviera, you become part of the family. Not quite in the mafia sense, perhaps, but still, you just won’t want to leave. In fact, you’ll likely develop a lifelong passion for these all-Australian beauties.

So, when they say the 58 Sports Motor Yacht is inspired by a wish list from Riviera’s loyal global family, you can imagine just how well-crafted this vessel is. It’s all about combining adventure with luxury – and, of course, Riviera’s own decades of innovation and evolution.

But what does this all translate into? In short, just what you’d expect – a versatile sport cruiser with comfortable accommodations, flexible inside-outside living and competence in a seaway. Indeed, it was far from the usual perfect day for boating off Surfer’s Paradise in southeast Queensland when I ventured out for a trial run.

The weather had turned it on and the storm clouds had gathered – and Riviera Dealer Relationship Manager Peter Welch, who was waiting with our test 58, was unfazed by either the weather or the swell building just outside the breakwater.
