Boarding Platform
Can be optioned with an hydraulic lifter to allow the launch and retrieval of a jet ski or small tender. Can become a beach when partly submerged for water sports or swimming.
43 Open Flybridge
Take-in a peerless view from the top, fishing or blue-water cruising, in a classic Riviera flybridge design offering you fine ‘easy living’ lifestyle, over three levels.
It’s hard to say which aspect of the Riviera 43 Open Flybridge you’ll enjoy most … its capacity for superb entertaining, or great blue-water fishing? Almost certainly the answer will be “both”. Friends and family will revel in the spacious, well designed cockpit (with its ‘stair ladder’ to the flybridge), luxurious saloon, indeed every part of life onboard …
Luxury on a whole other level, class leading for a yacht of this size. Handcrafted, well considered, always welcoming. You’ll love retreating to the accommodation deck boasting your master stateroom and designer ensuite, located forward. Love treating your family and friends also to the full beam guest stateroom aft, with its VIP ensuite doubling as the day head.
World leading on board technology makes the 43 Open Flybridge supremely easy to operate and skipper…for novices and experienced hands alike. You’ll have silky-smooth Volvo Inboard Propulsion System (IPS) to power you, Volvo Penta Glass Cockpit Navigation and multi-function display screens to guide you and fingertip-easy, joystick manoeuvrability. Simply brilliant.

RIVIERA'S 43 OPEN FLYBRIDGE OFF THE CHARTS!
She gets onto plane almost immediately with virtually no use of the trim tabs. Cornering is tight and sure and she has a very smooth, soft ride even at pace. Even in huge swells she lifts gradually and gently settles into the troughs. She is a fabulous combination of luxury and practicality

RIVIERA'S 43 OPEN FLYBRIDGE
Given the 43 Open's fuel capacity of 1800 litres with a 20 percent reserve, the new cruiser can comfortably deliver between 350 and 500 nautical mile range, depending on speed. The 43 Open Flybridge tips the tape at 47 feet 5 inches and a 15 foot beam makes it a big volume cruiser for its…
