This 2003 Riviera M430 Sports Cruiser is a good example of what quality boat Rivieras are built to. This vessel, in particular, is well equipped ready for summer, and maintained to the hill. The vessel is a spacious family boat for a week away at the islands or just the weekend. They are high-performance designed hulls that can be put through the roughest conditions you throw at them.

necessary amenities to keep a family comfortable and safe when cruising in remote areas of the Australian coast for several days at a time.
