Yes you have read this correctly, one or the most iconic models that seldom comes to the market “Riviera 48 Offshore Express” in fact, in the nine years I’ve worked with R Marine Flagship, this is the first one to come to the market with us. Being a shaft/drive sedan sports cruiser with a huge following by Riviera enthuses.
This Riviera 48 Offshore Express looks stunning in Blue and performs truly like sports car, having a pair of Caterpillar C18’s gives a genuine cruise speed of 30 knots at 80% engine load, with a sprint speed of 37.5 knots “now that’s impressive”
There is a queen-sized stateroom and en suite forward, and three single berths amidships plus a settee that can also become a single bed. A separate head services the galley and crew area. The galley is large enough to cater to any hungry complement and there is refrigeration to burn. Storage is literally everywhere you look.
Some of her specifications includes – Painted blue topsides (hull), Upgraded Caterpillar C18 engine package, 3x Raymarine Hybrid screens, radar, fish finder, game rigged, bait tank, HRO water maker, Onan genset, Cruisair air conditioning/heating, 240V cooking appliances, Water blaster. Ice maker to name a few
