THE LUXURY OF SPACE

The lounge may be large and deep, the table generous in size and the number of cabinets impressive, but the sense of space within the saloon is exceptional. A generous beam contributes to a spacious area, the headroom is head and shoulders above what you are probably used to, and the intelligent location and design of the furniture and fittings creates an easy, open flow. And it is all accentuated by oceans of light from large tinted side windows.But space isn’t the only luxury. Feel the softness of the leather upholstery; run your fingers across the lustrous finish on the fine timberwork; take a look at the quality of the latches on the cabinets: every detail is a testament to Riviera quality – and your good taste.Created by a leading interior design team, this is an environment in which you, your family and friends can truly relax, indulge and enjoy the best of boating life.Entertaining is one of the great pleasures of boating. As this is a vessel designed for getting away for days or weeks on end, the galley on the Riviera 47 is both large and extremely well equipped. With a fridge-freezer, convection microwave oven, twin electric burners, optional dishwasher, generous storage space and sizeable bench areas, this is a home away from home when it comes to dining. The quality of the finish and the clever utilisation of space are pleasing – but it is when you close a drawer or place a pan on a bench-top that you realise that style is backed by substance.
