4600 Sport Yacht
The Riviera 515 SUV is a 56-foot dual-purpose sport cruiser that was produced by the iconic Australian yacht-building company Riviera Yachts between 2014 and 2017. Classic curves with structural flares, a sleek profile and a hefty cockpit highlight this yacht’s two identities: its use as a quick, stylish and luxurious offshore cruiser and its ability to function as a competitive sport-fisher that can land record catches of marlin or bluefin tuna.
A padded double-width sunpad out on the foredeck offers guests the opportunity to luxuriate in the sun for hours on end, while broad-side decks flanked by high guardrails lead back to the teak-lined aft-cockpit. Back here you will encounter premium fishing equipment like an icebox, a transom wet-well, rod-holders and a lift-gate that leads to a full-beam swim platform with an at-sea bait-prep center built into the transom wall. Further hidden storage is joined by a wet-bar console with a Kenyon grill, a sink and refrigeration, while there’s even an extra piloting joystick back here for inch-perfect docking. A mezzanine sofa gifts guests a prime spot to sit and watch the action unfold, while fully retractable sliding glass doors lead into a walk-in galley aft of the salon,. In here you will find brushed stonework surfaces, a stainless-steel sink, a multi-zone hob, a convection oven and under-counter Vitrifrigo refrigeration.
Moving forward into the salon you are welcomed by a teak sole, pale oak joinery, Ultraleather furnishings, beige wall panels, vast side glazing and two transparent sunroofs. A side sofa to starboard and an L-shaped sofa to port surround an extending coffee table, while a pair of comfortable piloting seats with armrests face the helm. This modern dashboard boasts power-assisted steering, digital throttles, a Penta joystick, a high-speed mounted compass, a pair of Garmin touchscreen devices, an Interceptor trim system, an optional Seakeeper Stabilizer switch and space for the fishing electronics of your choice.
This yacht’s generous beam is on full display across the lower deck, where a trio of spacious staterooms offer sedate sleeping quarters with a restrained vibe for up to six overnight guests. Mood lighting and hull glazing down here is joined by authentic timber surrounds for a breezy feel, while a twin-room and an aft VIP double boast enough space for bedside cabinets and full-height lockers. The master stateroom to the bow features a queen-sized island bed, timber-lined closets and a pair of skylights, while two heads on this level deliver ceramic sinks, vanity mirrors and enclosed waterfall shower cubicles.
Powered by a twinset of 626HP Volvo Penta IPS800S pod-drives that come as standard, buyers can also opt for upgrades to twin Cummins QSC Zeus 600 pods or even a pair of 725HP Volvo Penta IPS950S motors. Top speeds for the standard option clock in at 31 knots with a cruising speed of 24 knots, while top-of-the-range engines will surpass the 35-knot mark at full-throttle. A fuel tank holding 793 gallons of diesel should keep you out on the water for the best part of a week, with cruising speeds translating into a 390 nautical mile range.
