Riviera M400 Sports Cruiser Diesel Just Listed

**Riviera M400 - 2005 Model

Twin Volvo D6 340s Diesels | Approx 1090 hrs | Volvo Stern Drives | Onan 7kVA Diesel Generator**

Step aboard this beautifully presented Riviera M400 and it is easy to understand why these boats remain one of Australia's most sought after family sports cruisers. Clean, spacious and exceptionally well equipped, she offers the ideal combination of performance, entertaining space and genuine overnight accommodation. Whether you are planning relaxed weekends with family, entertaining friends or extended stays on the water, this M400 is a true home from home.


Power & Performance


Powered by twin Volvo D6 340 diesel engines (approx. 1090 hrs) coupled to Volvo stern drives, this M400 delivers a superb balance of efficiency, reliability, and effortless handling. The helm is well positioned with excellent visibility and easy access to the vessels navigation and control systems, which include bow thruster, stern-drive trim, hull trim tabs, remote windlass with chain counter, autopilot, Icom VHF and full engine management systems all sit at your fingertips. The well designed helm position keeps the skipper connected with guests whilst maintaining a clear and commanding view when cruising, docking or navigating into and anchorage.

A 7kVA Onan diesel generator ensures you have full power independence--air conditioning, refrigeration, cooking, entertainment... Run it all, anytime.

Cockpit - The Heart of the Party

Riviera absolutely nailed the cockpit layout on the M400, and this example showcases it perfectly. Designed to entertain up to 8 adults comfortably, this huge highly social zone includes:

o Teak laid flooring in great condition
o Full hard top cover extending over the rear cockpit
o Sink with hot/cold water
o 80L fridge
o Separate ice machine
o TV
o Adaptable teak & stainless table
o Built in lounges that make hosting effortless

The teak swim platform is fitted with a stainless-steel rail system housing an electric stainless steel BBQ and an outboard motor bracket making it ideal for tender storage, swimming and relaxed waterfront entertaining.

Galley & Interior Comfort

Three steps down and you're in a well equipped galley designed for practical onboard living. The galley includes:-

o Nova Kool 200L AC/DC two door fridge/freezer
o Two burner ceramic 240V cooktop
o Microwave
o Stone benchtops
o Exhaust fan
o Ample storage and preparation space

Forward of the galley is a large, beautifully finished head featuring a vanity, round sliding glass shower recess, and a Sealand vacuum toilet.

Accommodation - Space for the Whole Family

The M400 offers genuine overnight comfort for couples, families, or guests:
o Forward cabin: Island double bed, generous storage, hanging lockers
o Aft cabin: One double + one single berth, drawers, cupboards
o Salon: A long, comfortable leather lounge that easily accommodates even tall adults

This is a boat designed to be lived in--not just visited.

Engine Room & Maintenance

The engine room is clean, tidy, and well organised with new batteries installed. Access is excellent, and overall presentation reflects careful ownership and consistent maintenance. Not to mention easy access due to the electric hatch that lifts high enough to expose and provide access to the entire engine room.

Why This M400 Stands Out

This Riviera covers all the things most boats miss: Diesel engines, generator, huge cockpit, multiple fridges, separate ice machine, ergonomic layout, comfortable family accommodation, and the build quality Riviera is known for. It's genuinely a home away from home--and one of the best balanced 40 foot cruisers ever produced in Australia.

This well-equipped example presents beautifully and deserves serious consideration from buyers seeking a proven family cruiser with all the comforts required for extended time on the water.

Good boats are selling quickly, and this one is absolutely worth your attention.
