Riviera 5600 Sport Yacht Platinum Edition – World Premiere
“Our 5600 Sport Yacht sets a new benchmark for a luxury motor yacht under 60 foot. New levels of space, comfort, liveability and luxury appointments. New levels of engineering excellence, blue-water capability and fuel-efficient performance,” said Rodney Longhurst.
“Drawing on our leading-edge boat building skills and the knowledge gained over 46 years, the brief to our design team was to create the best mid 50-foot Sports Yacht. The result is spectacular!”
The design philosophy of Riviera’s Sport Yacht Collection embodies four essentials: timeless styling, luxurious single-level living, effortless blue-water performance and ease of operation.
The 5600 Sport Yacht excels in all of these criteria.
There is just so much for family and friends to enjoy with all-season alfresco entertaining on the large aft deck, relaxing on the lounge and sunbeds of the forward deck, a spacious saloon with two lounge areas and an accommodation deck with three superb staterooms including a full-beam master suite and a dedicated laundry. This expansive luxury motor yacht makes everyday boating easier through the convenience and style of a tender garage with storage for water sports equipment and toys, as well as the practicality of a full-height engine room with excellent access and serviceability.
Being a Platinum Edition means the 5600 offers superior appointments and amenity; greater refinement and luxury, with gleaming colour palettes and aesthetics.
