Riviera 45 Open Flybridge *** A RARE OPPORTUNITY *** Under Offer

It is a great pleasure to be able to offer this rare boat to the WA market, the last one that came through our hands was gone before we knew it and the expectation is that this will be no different. The current owner has owned the boat for the last 7 or 8 years and is looking to downsize.

This is an outstanding opportunity !!

From the moment you turn the keys in the flybridge and engage the gears you have the feel of a quality boat under your feet, shaft driven with a Side Power bow thruster has her moving out of the pen with ease, spinning on a five cent piece and heading off through the marina jetties to the heads. Easy to the plane with the current owner taking the upmost of care with her rarely exceeding his limits of 16-17 knots at around 1800 RPM running from Mandurah south to Busselton or North to Thompson Bay. Poacher is a likely sight at the islands when the sun is shinning.

All the features you will be looking for are present in this very fine example of a Riviera 45 FB, full length extended stainless steel double railed cockpit awning protecting you from the sun, easy maintenance marine carpet over a non-skid GRP cockpit decking, recessed stainless steel electric BBQ, plumbed fish tank under the floor and the usual cockpit freezer and sink leading through to the Saloon with its very popular rear hob window bring the outside in and the inside out as the saying goes. Entertaining with friends and family or some serious fishing for those that need to wet a line. Head North for the game fish season or relax at Parker Point. The choice is yours.

Finished in a full gloss cherry timber finish the Saloon is all luxury, leather L shaped lounge to Port with its pull out double berth and timber / leather foot stool, Leather dinette to Starboard with a gloss finished book leaf table when extra guests stay the night, quality floor and window finishes with sliding side windows being a fantastic addition. Everything is neatly designed for optimal use of space with a U-Line icemaker installed ( fridge only ) under the master switch panel just inside the Saloon door and an overhead electric locker to Port for your fishing rods or general storage. A single small step down to the Galley with corian bench tops, gloss timber finishes and Amtico flooring to the Galley sole. Draw fridges and freezer, Fisher & Paykal twin element stove, Fisher & Paykal dishwasher, carousel convection mircowave and plenty of storage available. The ideal entertainers galley where the fish of the day becomes the meal of the week !

Accommodation is available at every tun on this Riviera 45 FB. In the forward focsal a master island style queen berth to the bow with private ensuite, a set of singles mid ship on the Port side can be brought together for a second double berth and Starboard side pair of bunks also sitting mid ships both sharing the day head. Heading up to the Saloon the Port side leather lounge reveals a double berth and is one of the more popular berths onboard and not forgetting the ability to drop the table in the fly bridge for an additional berth for the early risers onboard. That giving you around 8 berths in comfort for an extended trip North if its on the wish list.

Heading up the Cockpit teak finished staircase, yes its not a ladder ! and the control centre of the boat is ready for the skipper to create a day full of memories with all you need right at hand. Raymarine electronics with Sounder, GPS and Radar, Raymarine Auto Pilot, QL trim tabs, Side power bow thruster and Icom communications teamed with a Clarion stereo. Vision through the spotless Fly Bridge clears a real pleasure with the ability to roll various sections up to let some summer breezes through. Ample seating froward of the helm for the crew seated around the Fly Bridge table with all the action being controlled from a pair of top quality Pompanette helm seats, these are very comfortable !

The heart of the boat is a pair of low hour Cat C9,6 cylinder, turbo driver, 575 Hp shaft driven diesel engines. These are showing below 650 hours !, very well maintained by a fastidious owner. Serviced by the hours following his previous life involved in commercial trucking. Electronic controls, digital engine management gauges, PSS dripless seals fitted in May 2024 and ZF gear boxes, its a bullet proof combination. An Onan 11 Kva genset powers the boat when away from the jetty and is showing just 1326 hours of use. This entire package is still so young at heart with many thousands of hours of life still top play out in your hands.

You would be doing your family a true favour by arranging a time to view this unique boat to the WA market, please be quick im sure it will not last long on the market.
