The Riviera team unveiled its latest 585 SUV at the 2023 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, revealing a spacious, luxurious SUV that combines proven blue water hull pedigree and the sporty cockpit of Riviera Sports Motor Yachts with single-level living features that enhance the indoor/outdoor lifestyle features SUVs are known for.
An expansive water sports space leads into a semi-enclosed alfresco deck that includes a BBQ center with storage and a wash station as well as a refrigerated cold box and ice maker, and loads of storage throughout. One-way glass quarter panels on both sides of the deck help protect from the elements, while the twin electric sunroofs allow for added light and fresh air.
Indoors, the luxurious saloon and gourmet galley seamlessly connect with the alfresco deck for easy access, and a comfortable L-shaped lounge forward in the saloon allows guests to visit with the captain at the helm, which includes a joystick, navigation, engine monitoring and CZone digital switching control screens and further smart boating technology like electronic engine controls and steering, dynamic positioning system, autopilot, low speed joystick steering mode, interceptor and bow thruster and search light controls. Foredeck, a large wraparound lounge and entertaining space is the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the journey.
Below deck, three large staterooms and three bathrooms provide space for friends and family to overnight, with an extra space that can be configured as a utility room, laundry room or additional accommodations.
“The pride and passion that our incredible team has for creating world-class luxury motor yachts is truly amazing. I believe our new 585 SUV will bring great joy and happiness to the lives of many Riviera owners in the Americas. Seeing how our Riviera yachts of today enrich our owners and their families’ lives is a great sense of inspiration for us all,” says Riviera Australia owner Rodney Longhurst.
Owners have the option of twin Volvo Penta D13 IPS 1200s or twin Volvo Penta D13 IPS 1350s, and all new Riviera motor yachts are equipped with Siren Marine to allow owners to remotely monitor key onboard systems, the yacht’s location and to activate selected onboard equipment.
