Riviera 43 Flybridge - The finest example of a classic Riviera!


Step aboard what is undeniably the best-presented Riviera 43 Flybridge we've ever encountered.

The decision to buy this vessel will not be based on whether the boats condition is up to your standards, but more so whether the style of boat is what you are looking for.

Immaculately maintained and tastefully upgraded, this iconic vessel blends timeless Riviera craftsmanship with thoughtful modern enhancements, offering a turn-key boating experience for the discerning buyer.

Powered by twin Caterpillar hp shaft drive engines with just 1700 hours, she delivers reliable performance and smooth cruising. Electronic controls and a bow thruster make for effortless handling, whether docking solo or navigating tight marinas. At the helm, a Raymarine electronics upgrade provides a sleek, modern facelift with advanced navigation and monitoring - bringing new-era tech to a classic platform. She has a new Raymarine Chart plotter with a new transducer, new raymarine autopilot and a new Raymarine Radar.

Below deck, the popular 2-cabin, 2-head layout shines with space and comfort. Both cabins are generously proportioned with their own private ensuites, ideal for extended getaways with family or guests. The saloon and galley retain their Riviera charm while offering all the creature comforts you'd expect onboard a high-quality cruiser. This era of Riviera were renowned for their volume, the cockpit & saloon is where you really benefit from the 4.57m beam!

On the foredeck, she's equipped with a 350kg davit crane and a SmartWave 3.5m poly tender powered by a Mercury 6hp 4-stroke outboard - an incredibly safe and stable platform for young kids to explore, fish, or simply have fun in calm waters. It's the kind of setup that makes family boating not just possible - but effortless. Just like many kids that grew up on the water, I first learnt on a 6hp fourstroke as they are such a dossile & safe outboard to learn on.

This is not just your ordinary Riviera 43 Flybridge, this is 'Oasis' - a rare opportunity to own a perfectly preserved, extensively upgraded example of one of Australia's most beloved bluewater cruisers.
