2020 Riviera 64 Sports Motor Yacht review
Riviera steps up its 40th-anniversary celebrations with the all-new riviera 64 sports motor yacht.
The all-new Riviera 64 Sports Motor Yacht has joined the Gold Coast-based luxury motor yacht maker's growing high-performance flybridge cruiser family. New from the keel up, Hull No.1 was packaged for a keen angler wanting to tap into the boat's ability to run wide, quickly and efficiently. While fishing was a focus for this build, Riviera has not compromised on the quality and workmanship for which it is renowned.
Fishing. Surely one of the most timeless, effortless and yet glorious of human pursuits. And so simple we’ve been doing it for longer than we’ve worn clothes.
Similar to so many other things, humans have found ways of making fishing more elaborate and spectacular.
While you start out as a child sitting on the riverbank, pretty soon you might find yourself pining for a simple tinnie with an outboard, which in turn leads to a creeping desire for a bigger boat…
Before you know it, you’re looking at a luxury vessel such as the all-new 2020 Riviera 64 Sports Motor Yacht, with a price tag you’d still fall short of if you’d won Who Wants to be a Millionaire more than thrice.
What we’re looking at here doesn’t much resemble many people’s idea of a fishing boat. Built for a US client who likes his fishing, it’s got outriggers and a spare (optional) helm at the rear of the flybridge, but beyond that it is still a member of Riviera's Sports Motor Yacht line of adventure cruisers. That means this is a boat equally at home making long passages to far-flung destinations as it is taking its owners diving, snorkelling, kayaking, jetskiing, and so on.
The giant eight-seater couch on the foredeck also seems to be a long way from where anyone might cast a line, and far more inviting an option than fighting fish.
Then there are all the dining areas, the sumptuous couches, the giant TVs, the truly lovely staterooms, the restaurant-sized galley.
The Riviera 64 Sports Motor Yacht is the entry-level model in Riviera’s proudly Australian-designed and built range of enclosed flybridge vessels made for cruising long distances quickly and efficiently. It joins two bigger models in the Sports Motor Yacht range, the 68 and the flagship 72.
A Riviera 50 Sports Motor Yacht – a scaled-down version of the 64 – should arrive in August.
Riviera’s Australian sales director, Chris Attard, says the Riviera 64 Sports Motor Yacht is all about versatility and ease of use.
“It’s all about the fingertip controls, the steering is nice and light, the controls are simple; it’s all about making it easy for anyone to own a boat of this size,” Attard says.
“And while you could just go out on the harbour and have a few beers and watch the footy, you can also go fishing out the back while your family sits in the mezzanine in air-conditioned comfort, or, if we had enough food on board, we could head out of the Sydney Heads right now, turn to starboard and head for New Zealand, because we’ve got enough fuel to get there, and back.”
Price and equipment
Let’s all just take a deep breath and lean into the price of the Riviera 64 Sports Motor Yacht, which is a not inconsequential $3.5 million.
But as Attard points out, the boat is entirely built and designed, with love, right here in Australia, so at that price you’re actually doing our balance of payments a favour by buying local.
Build No.1 was specced with almost $400,000 of options.
It seems no expense was spared, and it feels like all the timber and chrome would weigh a tonne on their own. All the stainless steel fastenings are 316 marine grade, and the forward hull compartment is foam-filled for added strength and (very effective) noise dampening.
The engine room, which is vast, also features acoustic insulation for quieter cruising.
Everything is air-conditioned, and there’s a properly large sunroof on the flybridge, a wine cooler in the galley, icemakers, on-board Wi-Fi, tempered glass doors, too many televisions to count, surround sound systems, plus various wet bars and lots of refrigeration and iceboxes for chilling all those fish you’ll catch.
Oh, and a 40-piece cutlery set, 40-piece dinner set, 12 goblets, 12 champagne flutes; the list goes on and then on some more. Anything you can’t find is surely optional.
One of those options is a gyroscope, in this case a Seakeeper M16, which you really would want even at $181,024. At the flick of a switch, the gyroscope cancels out almost all the Riviera 64 Sports Motor Yacht’s pitch and roll, at rest or on the move.
Design and layout
Step onto the aft swim deck and enter the cockpit via a pair of transom doors, and you are immediately struck by the sense of space, and width of the Riviera 64 Sports Motor Yacht.
The cockpit is divided so that there is an open area with refrigeration units leading into a very inviting mezzanine area with a large foldout teak dining table, glass doors at one end and a glass hatch at the other.
The whole space opens up to the galley and saloon inside.
The mezzanine has two large, L-shaped couches, and an LED TV that folds down for those moments where you tire of the view.
Stepping into the galley, you’re in what feels like a proper, home-sized kitchen with classy benchtops, lashings of timber and quality Miele appliances.
There’s also a huge amount of fridge space, a wine cooler, and a full-size dishwasher.
The galley blends into the big, plush saloon, which feels like a family living room, complete with a properly large 50-inch TV that rises up to act as a wall between the saloon and the galley, and a hidden home theatre surround-sound system.
The flybridge helm is dominated by three large Raymarine touchscreens laid across the length of the port side console. The skipper sits inboard, with the co-pilot enjoying a corner office.
Pop out the portside pantograph door and you can stroll onto what’s our favourite part of the boat, the foredeck. Here, you feel surrounded by the water and yet luxuriously ensconced in a fabulous entertaining space, with its own stereo system and generous iceboxes.
Owners can opt to use this space as a tender store.
Staterooms are accessed via a forward companionway descending from the forward section of the saloon.
There are two guest cabins, one to starboard with bunks and another to port with two single beds that slide together at the push of a button to form a double. There’s also a two-way entry to the portside day head.
The VIP stateroom in the bow would be a more than ample main bedroom on most boats, with its own private ensuite, walk-around queen-size bed surrounded in plush-piled carpet, and stunningly crafted cabinetry and storage.
The amidships full-beam master stateroom is something else again. It is properly presidential and almost absurdly spacious, as is its ensuite (yes, that’s three bathrooms and four bedrooms in total).
The master’s queen-size bed is almost dwarfed by the space around it. Giant picture windows make the space feel even lighter and bigger, with their bonus portholes to let the sea breeze flow through while at anchor.
A 43-inch LED TV is at the foot of the bed.
The boat is set up to sleep eight, but there’s another slide-out double bed hidden away below the couches on the flybridge. Drop-down blinds turn this space into another room.
If desired, owners can option an extra pair of crew bunks for the utility room.
The Riviera 64 Sports Motor Yacht’s flybridge oozes class and exclusivity and feels like a space to hang out and relax while you watch someone else do all the driving.
The layout of touchscreens and camera relays on the main helm looks like something out of NASA, or even Space X, and from here you can monitor what the kids are up to two floors below, check out a thermal view of what’s in front of you at night, navigate or make a thousand different adjustments, all at the touch of a finger.
I swear, on one screen I saw the words “gyro adjustment” and “electric towel rails on/off” right next to each other. You really can control everything from up there.
The flybridge has space for up to 10 people and includes a large, open space aft and yet another lounge area with a table.
The cockpit, where the keen anglers will spend their days, is a useful 9.1 square metres with the mezzanine taking up 7.6m square.
On the water
You expect to be intimidated by taking the tiller of a boat this big and flash, but it’s surprising just how easy the Riviera 64 Sports Motor Yacht is to pilot.
The supremely elevated, emperor-like seat for the skipper is a big help.
Standard engine choices are twin 1300hp MAN V8 1300s, while the boat we tested, Hull No.1, was fitted with the optional 1550hp Man V12 1550 units.
The sense of effortless thrust from the optional MAN V12s we had on board was little short of awesome.
Underway on our test on Sydney Harbour, the Riviera 64 Sports Motor Yacht copes with ease at all speeds. While fishing, the engines' Twin Disc express mode will allow the boat to troll at just 2.0 knots.
The sense that you are doing 32 knots, as we were once outside Sydney Heads on a glorious open-ocean day, is difficult to equate because the Riviera 64 Sports Motor Yacht makes so little noise.
“We spend a lot of time and energy making this boat quiet and smooth,” Attard says, and that effort really has worked.
“The reason we do that is if you go out to sea for 10 or 13 hours fishing or watching whales or whatever, if you’re on a boat that’s noisy and throws you around a bit, then when you get back to the dock you know you’ve been on the water all day – it can be exhausting.

“But this is a luxury boat, and what we want from our vessels is for it to feel like you haven’t been on a boat, it’s that comfortable and smooth and quiet.
“And with the gyro stabiliser, you get back and you feel ready to go out that night.”
Having turned the gyro off and turned side on to the swell, we can tell you that the Seakeeper is an option you’d be mad to not have.
It really is surprising how much more sanguine this tall boat is with it on.
Berthing is a relative doddle, with a low-speed joystick system fitted to the bridge upstairs and at the rear deck on the starboard side – more are available if they are needed.
Overall, skippering this big boat was extremely enjoyable.
Sure, $3.5 million is a lot of money for a boat, but the Riviera 64 Sports Motor Yacht is pretty much in a league of its own.
The overall impression is that you’re stepping aboard something very special, hugely spacious and properly luxurious, and this makes the motor yacht feel much more like a high-dollar floating home.
If it was a house, it would share a postcode with Darling Point, Toorak or Peppermint Grove.
It’s also a wonderful surprise to find it so easy to use and so unintimidating to skipper, even on a busy waterway such as Sydney Harbour.
I could live with the 64, and would happily have it without even taking a look at the 68 or 72. This will do.

Riviera 64 sports motor yacht kisses the water as her world premiere approaches.
The newest addition to Riviera’s internationally acclaimed Sports Motor Yacht collection, the 64 SMY, has just been launched as she approaches her world premiere in June.
Work on the final fit-out is now advancing by the skilled team at Riviera, Australia’s largest luxury motor yacht manufacturer, as two years of planning, precision design and engineering by the company’s specialist team nears completion.
“The 64 SMY has been designed equally for blue-water cruising and long-term liveability as much as for luxurious long-weekend escapes,” said Riviera owner Rodney Longhurst.
“Now that she is on the water, these first glimpses truly highlight her graceful design and impressive technology, inherent to our very latest motor yacht.
“It’s a proud moment for our dedicated team members who have shared this journey from the early planning stages to her launch where now she is really shining.
“Riviera’s engineering advances and technology that makes boating easier and more enjoyable are just a few of the highpoints of our growing Sports Motor Yacht collection, and the 64 SMY is no exception. I’m extremely proud of what our team has achieved.”
Powered by twin MAN V12 turbo diesels, each delivering 1550hp, the 64 SMY adopts the efficiencies and engineering precision of the V-drive system created for Riviera’s 68 and 72 SMY to deliver quiet, effortless and smooth acceleration to her top speed of more than 30 knots.
Behind her elegant lines is a luxury motor yacht that optimises onboard space with amenity and functionality that is enhanced by Riviera’s renowned superior craftsmanship and finishes.
The 64 Sports Motor Yacht will give boating enthusiasts, particularly blue-water cruising families, the long-term liveability and luxury they desire in a 64-foot model. She will also boast equally high levels of sophistication and innovation as her sisterships which are now cruising the Mediterranean Sea, Andaman Sea, Bay of Bengal, the Malacca Strait, Java Sea, the Caribbean, the Pacific and New Zealand and Australian waters.
Step aboard a very accomplished motor yacht
Versatility and practicality are evident from the moment you step aboard the Riviera 64 Sport Motor Yacht, her wide-open cockpit can be optioned for a range of different water sports.
The cockpit leads up to the mezzanine level where to port is an L-shaped day lounge and Al fresco dining will be enjoyed in the L-shaped lounge area to starboard, which includes a drop-leaf teak table.
The mezzanine can be enclosed with optional clears and serviced by air-conditioning ducts for maximum comfort in all-weather conditions considerably extending the living area and creating another room.
The outdoor dinette is the perfect entrée for the aft C-shaped galley, which is immediately to starboard inside the 64’s saloon.
Plush seating is provided on the port side of the saloon, with the lounge also storing three director’s chairs to accompany the seating at the starboard-side dinette or for use in the al fresco mezzanine dining area.
A side door gives clever and convenient access to the port side deck and foredeck from the saloon.
The accommodation deck features four staterooms and three bathrooms. The VIP stateroom in the forepeak enjoys views from large hull side windows. The VIP en-suite bathroom is located to aft to starboard.
Additional guest accommodation is provided to port with a clever twin single berth cabin that at the press of a button, the inboard berth moves sideways to create a restful double. This cabin also has en-suite access to the portside day head bathroom. To starboard is a further guest cabin with two adult sized Pullman beds.
A wide companionway leads aft to the Riviera 64 Sports Motor Yacht’s full-beam master stateroom, which is bathed in light from large hull side windows and features a central king-sized bed. An opulent chaise lounge drinks in views from the portside window. There is extensive storage areas in this cabin, a highlight being the twin-door robe.
The separate master en-suite is akin to a luxury apartment bathroom, with a double vanity and spacious shower.
From the master en-suite a convenient laundry with separate washer and dryer, offer the ultimate in space utilisation for those who like to remain self-sufficient when cruising long term. Owners can alternatively specify a utility room, among other options. An aft bulkhead door in this room provides internal access to the meticulously laid out engine room.
In true Riviera Sports Motor Yacht style, the 64’s fully enclosed bridge will pamper guests like a first-class lounge. It’s the perfect spot to watch the world and the nautical miles go by.
The rear bulkhead opens out to bring the outdoors inside. There’s an additional dinette and wet bar on the rear deck, plus the option of siderail-mounted joysticks. Revealing the vessel’s blue-water pedigree, a moulding at the rear of the bridge can house a life raft and safety cell.
Form and functionality combine seamlessly in the superb helm station, which has twin leather seats and central helm. There is a commanding view over the 64’s foredeck, with its versatile, innovative and easily accessed socialising area comprising a C-shaped lounge area and generous floor space.
A 3.6-metre tender with 50hp jet can then reside in this space when underway – it is launched by a low-profile davit. This foredeck design has been exceptionally popular on the larger Sports Motor Yachts. From a practical viewpoint, it also provides a convenient location for storage of fenders, ropes and a home for the pressure cleaner.
