New Model: Riviera 61 Enclosed Flybridge

The Riviera 61 Flybridge brings many new and exciting innovations to Riviera’s flybridge range, especially a magnificently crafted unobtrusive internal staircase that leads you from the saloon door up to the flybridge level. As well as providing dry, safe and easy access to the flybridge, this design also affords the luxury of incorporating a hinge-up awning window in the saloon aft bulkhead, opening the saloon up to the cockpit. On this model, the awning window concept is further extended to include the same format on the flybridge level, opening up the already expansive flybridge to include the aft-facing lounge. The Riviera 61 Flybridge is a four cabin, three bathroom boat with the master stateroom amidships, a second stateroom forward and two cabins to starboard. An alternative accommodation design of three cabins includes a lounge area below decks. The running surface and chines, designed in consultation with internationally renowned naval architect and superyacht designer Frank Mulder, have been optimised for a soft and dry ride. Tunnels incorporated into the aft running surface provide reduced draft and propeller shaft angle for better performance and efficiency while an underwater exhaust system helps to reduce fumes and engine noise. The engine room air vents in the hull are fully integrated into the hull sides for a smooth, clean look while also reducing routine maintenance. Exterior styling has been significantly enhanced with new deck and flybridge style lines. An angler-friendly cockpit includes a new non-skid dot pattern on the floor, innovative recessed toe-kicks, and optional live bait well. A large removable storage bin is fitted into the cockpit floor for ice, fish or storage. This is insulated and includes pump-out ability. A second matching storage bin can be added to the cockpit floor if desired. Other features here include a mezzanine level with an aft-facing lounge with built in drink holders. Built in under the mezzanine lounge is a eutectic freezer and concealed engine room access. Another insulated ice box can be found under a hatch by the entrance to the saloon. The cockpit also includes a garbage bin, sink with faucet and cover and a hand held cockpit shower (hot and cold). The huge engine room houses all of the systems on board, including tankage, water heater, air conditioning handlers and compressors, bilge pumps, filtration and pumps, genset, battery chargers, inverter and fresh water system manifolds. In the fully enclosed and lockable flybridge, a new ergonomically designed, lowered helm station has been fitted to provide maximum forward visibility. The enclosed flybridge provides seating up to six adults on a sweeping L-shaped lounge to port, upholstered in luxurious leather. The skipper and companion are seated on two high quality Pompanette helm chairs. Both chairs swivel to improve communication with guests in the flybridge. The skipper’s chair is electrically adjustable. A folding wooden table, conveniently located stainless steel grab rails, a wet-bar, a refrigeration drawer, an aft-facing external lounge with ice-box capabilities, overhead feature panels and a sliding sun-roof add the final touches of elegance and practicality. Standard engines are two Caterpillar C18s rated at 1015hp .
