Riviera 37 Flybridge


2004 Riviera 37 Open Flybridge Platinum - "Rubicon"

 

The Riviera 37 Open Flybridge Platinum is widely regarded as one of Riviera's most successful and enduring models, combining practical offshore capability with the comfort and luxury expected from one of Australia's most respected boat builders.

"Rubicon" is an exceptionally well-maintained example of this highly sought-after model, powered by twin Cummins 6BTA 370HP heat-exchanged diesel engines, delivering reliable performance and efficient cruising whether you're exploring the coastline, game fishing offshore, or enjoying weekends away with family and friends.

The interior layout is spacious and thoughtfully designed, featuring a large L-shaped lounge to port with a fold-out double berth, providing additional accommodation when required. Opposite is ample storage cabinetry and electrical switch panels, while forward you'll find a second L-shaped dinette seating area, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. A TV is neatly integrated within the cabinetry above.

Stepping down, the well-appointed galley offers generous bench space and practical amenities including a two-zone electric cooktop, sink, microwave, fridge/freezer and excellent storage throughout. An additional storage void beneath the galley floor further enhances onboard practicality for extended cruising.

The cockpit is designed with both entertaining and fishing in mind, featuring a teak-laid deck, large fish box, multiple storage lockers and excellent engine room access via the hinged sink module. Additional cockpit features include a stainless-steel BBQ, bait board, cockpit freezer and freshwater sink, making it equally suited to serious fishing or relaxed afternoons entertaining at anchor.

Above, the flybridge helm station offers outstanding visibility and comfortable seating, protected by a hardtop with clears, allowing for comfortable all-weather cruising.

The current owner has invested significantly in upgrades and maintenance, ensuring the vessel presents in excellent condition and is ready for its next owner to enjoy.
