Riviera M290 Sports Cruiser

Great boat with plenty spent over the last few years to keep in great condition.
Extensive documented history, and all manuals available.
Sold with a 3 year Integrity Marine warranty included.

I have owned this boat for approx. Three years. Purchased from a local Gold Coast owner. This is my 4th boat, and have previously also owned Mustang and Sea Ray.
This boat is very high quality, and Riviera is a step above some of the similar sized competitors.
Currently moored at Sanctuary Cove. Purchase of the boat will include continued mooring until Feb 2026 (approx. $7k value)

The M290 is just under 32 ft in length, and 10ft 4inch wide. Pretty good volume for a boat of this size. We've comfortably had 8 adults out for the day. With kids on board, even more capacity, but good to make them sit downstairs if the boat is full!
One of the best parts about this boat, it's got a single Mercruiser 496 MAG High Output engine. 8.1 litres, it's got plenty of performance to get the boat moving. Only one engine to service though so annual maintenance is so much more affordable than smaller twin engines. Less manoeuvrable than a twin engine, but with a bow thruster, it's got the same capability so easily docked and turned. Hapy to run a buyer through the controls and give some lessons on how to operate.
WOT will hit high close to 30 knots, comfortable cruise in the late teen, early 20 knot range. A good full day out on the Gold Coast Broadwater from Sanctuary Cove will run $150 in fuel.

Plenty of storage. Two double beds, plus one single.

This is a great boat, and happy to share experience with the new buyer. It's been looked after recently and also well by previous owners. Feel free to reach out for further information.
