Australia's premium luxury motor yacht builder, Riviera, conducted the World Premiere of its inspired new Riviera 39 Sports Motor Yacht at the Sydney International Boat Show on Thursday, 2 August, 2018.
The 39 Sports Motor Yacht includes multiple entertainer spaces, including a light and spacious saloon, open cockpit and extended flybridge that are emblematic of Riviera Sports Motor Yachts.
Riviera owner Rodney Longhurst said the 39 Sports Motor Yacht provides a compelling entree to the Riviera family.
"She is a brilliant example of Riviera's evolution and constant refinement across our five collections," he said.
An entertainer's cockpit
Stepping aboard from a fixed swim platform through a transom door, the cockpit is an open space for entertaining and water sports. A barbecue unit is set across the transom, facing forward and accessed from the swim platform.
In the cockpit, a teak table and a comfortable lounge set under the awning window to port offer alfresco dining.
Optional fold-out seating is recessed into the coaming on both port and starboard sides.
Access to the engine room is via a large hydraulic lift hatch that makes up most of the cockpit floor. Access for day-to-day inspections or maintenance is through a smaller hatch, immediately aft of the saloon door.
Raised bulwarks provide an additional level of security when moving forward or aft along the side decks.
Sunlovers will enjoy the foredeck with its optional large sunlounge with integrated folding backrests and drink holders.
Extended open flybridge
Featuring deep and wide teak treads for safety, a stair-ladder on the starboard side of the cockpit connects this space with the innovative and extended flybridge.
The twin helm-and-companion seat forward faces a sports wheel, comprehensive engine controls including a Volvo Penta IPS joystick and navigation displays behind a raked windscreen.
Guests may relax on a cushioned L-shape lounge aft of the helm seat while a superbly crafted rail envelopes the rear section of the flybridge, providing a plush backrest to the wide lounge, privacy screening and an anchor-point for navigational equipment.
Sun protection to the flybridge is provided by a bimini top.
Contemporary saloon
The finest American white oak timber panelling and cabinetry, skillfully paired with elegantly coloured Sunbrella fabrics, enhance the contemporary styling throughout the 39 Sports Motor Yacht.
In the saloon, a fully-equipped aft galley is on the starboard side with a dining area opposite, offering sweeping views through the wrap-around windows, windscreen and aft through a stainless steel framed glass bulkhead door and awning window.
The standard lower helm forward includes a leather helm-and-companion seat facing a leather sports wheel, twin engine controls and an IPS joystick outboard and two navigation displays.
A supple lounge opposite the helm provides sweeping views forward. The entertainment unit, with lift-up television, radio and CD sound system with iPod interface, is positioned forward.
Comfortable accommodation
The lower deck provides sleeping accommodation for five adults in two staterooms.
The luxurious master stateroom forward includes a queen-size walk-around double bed, a wardrobe on the port side aft quarter as well as overhead lockers and shelving. Hull windows on both sides flood the stateroom with natural light while an aft-hinging deck hatch with insect screen and blind provide both additional light and fresh air.
The stateroom is designed with ensuite access to the bathroom immediately aft that includes a vanity toilet and separate shower stall with a frameless glass door. The bathroom can be utilised as the master ensuite and as the day head.
A midship stateroom opens up to reveal a light-filled space with twin beds athwartships to starboard and a single bed set along the port side. The twin beds can be converted with an infill into a large double bed. A wardrobe offers hanging space at the entry and further space is available under the twin beds. Natural light is provided by generous hull windows, equipped on both sides with opening portholes.
Power at your fingertips
Power for the Riviera 39 Sports Motor Yacht comes from twin Volvo Penta D6 IPS 600 turbo diesel engines providing 320kW/435hp each and IPS pod-drives and joystick control..
The Volvo Penta systems, drives, engines and electronics are covered by an industry-leading five-year limited warranty to complement Riviera's structural five-year limited warranty.
