2004 Riviera M430 Sports Cruiser – Turn-Key Performance & Luxury

The Riviera M430 Sports Cruiser is widely celebrated as one of Riviera’s most successful and well-balanced designs—and this example is a standout.

Beautifully presented and meticulously maintained, she was repowered in 2022 with twin V8 Mercury Marine engines, showing just 71 hours. This delivers exhilarating performance with smooth, responsive power, making her just as comfortable cruising offshore as she is gliding through the marina with the assistance of a bow thruster.

Freshly polished, serviced, and antifouled in April 2026, she is completely turn-key and ready for her next owner to step aboard and enjoy immediately.

The cockpit is designed for effortless entertaining, offering a spacious and social layout perfect for weekends on the water. Forward, the sun lounge provides the ideal spot to relax, easily accessed from the helm for seamless indoor-outdoor living.

Step below deck and you’re welcomed into a warm, inviting interior that showcases Riviera’s renowned craftsmanship. A generous forward master cabin is complemented by a versatile aft cabin featuring both a double and single berth—perfect for accommodating family and guests. The well-appointed galley, spacious head, and rich timber finishes complete a layout that is both practical and luxurious.

Whether you’re chasing a fast, capable offshore cruiser or a comfortable entertainer, this M430 delivers the best of both worlds.
