TECHNOLOGY THAT INSPIRES CONFIDENCE

As you sit at the helm - letting the power steering do the work for you, of course - and gaze out through that vast curved glass windscreen, family and friends gathered around, there is no doubt you’ll experience a profound sense of satisfaction. And not least because you know the design and structure of your Riviera is world class.The 58 Enclosed Flybridge was designed entirely using the latest Computer Aided Boat design software. This approach to design results not only in more precision in the design itself but, because the software also guides the robotic plug cutting router, it produces a mould - and ultimately a hull, deck and flybridge - that are absolutely faithful to the original design. Thorough tank testing and on-water trials have clearly demonstrated the superior performance provided by this technology.Naturally, many other things contribute to the agility and stability of the 58. Renowned international naval architect Frank Mulder is responsible for the running surface including marine propeller tunnels that provide more forward thrust, better fuel efficiency and a steadier ride. The 58 also features a new generation of underwater exhausts that are clean and quiet. Larger shafts, precision engineered Veem propellers and a particularly robust build all contribute to a refreshingly smooth ride. New technology is evident everywhere. For instance, smaller fiberglass components such as hatches and the swim platform are now made with a new closed mold injection process to create a stronger component with a better finish. The build integrity also includes our tried and tested hand-laid fibreglass hull with bulkheads throughout the hull, a fiberglass engine room liner, extra transverse stiffeners, the added stability of a mid- mounted fuel tank and a collision bulkhead in the bow.As a serious long-range cruiser or a bluewater sportfishing platform, it is reassuring to know you have a boat designed to weather the storm and one that can handle significant speeds: with engine options you can set your own level of performance.

The superb underwater profile of the 58 reveals Riviera’s latest thinking in terms of design and specification. Interceptor Trim Tabs, stern thruster, Halyard under water exhausts, propeller tunnels, new shaft bracket design, larger diameter shafts, Veem propellers and Riviera’s galvanic corrosion protection system, combine to deliver the ultimate performance and handling.
