A luxury Riviera 50 Sports Motor Yacht is heading for Japan, with its famed and fascinating Inland Sea, known in Japanese as Seto Naikai which translates as ‘Sea within Channels’. Lying at the southern end of Japan’s Honshu island, it is a paradise of more than 3,000 islands, many of which are uninhabited or feature small traditional fishing villages, extraordinary temples and spectacular bridges. Perhaps the most famed image of the Inland Sea is the massive legendary “floating” torii gate in the water close to the city of Hiroshima.
The new yacht will be commissioned and offered for sale by Unimat Precious.
A pair of luxurious Riviera Sport Yachts, a 6800 (left) and 4600 (right) are on their way to Newport Beach in California where Santa Cruz Island awaits offshore.
A pair of Platinum Edition Sport Yachts, a 6800 and a 4600, are bound for the waters off Newport Beach in California. Here, sleek marinas and luxury homes rise along the shoreline while the open Pacific Ocean beckons, its light turning the water a deep, glassy blue. Santa Catalina Island, 30 nautical miles to the west, is a favourite boating destination with its rugged landscape of rolling hills, canyons, coastal cliffs and sandy beaches. Newport Beach is also a short cruise from Long Beach to the north where the famed Queen Mary ocean liner is moored.
These new yachts will be commissioned and offered for sale by Sun Country Marine in Newport Beach.

On the other side of the United States, a new Riviera 4300 Sports Express is bound for the waters of Florida where a family will be spoiled for choice of adventure: the sheltered reaches of the Intracoastal Waterway where mangroves with their tangled roots lean toward the water, the Florida Keys, a chain of some 1,700 coral and limestone islands stretching south from the tip of the mainland, or the exotic Bahamas and the Caribbean islands beyond.
This new yacht will be commissioned and offered for sale by OneWater Yacht Group in Florida.
The waters around the dramatic Sidney Spit (left) on Vancouver Island off Canada’s west coast await a new Riviera 4600 Sport Yacht (lower right) while, on the mainland, a family is eager to step aboard their new Riviera 64 Sports Motor Yacht (upper right).
The city of Sidney on Vancouver Island in south western Canada is the home destination for a new Riviera 4600 Sport Yacht Platinum Edition. A compact town of about 1,000 people, Sidney includes a waterfront walkway lined with cheerful flowerbeds. The waters around Sidney feel both intimate and expansive, a passage through calm channels and open straits. Islands in the waters of the Salish Sea scatter across the horizon – low, forested, and edged with rock – creating a sense of quiet discovery. Snow-capped mountains rise faintly in the distance, anchoring the horizon. Cruising in these waters offers the chance of sighting orcas or even whales.
The new motor yacht will be commissioned and offered for sale by Freedom Marine.
On the west coast of Canada’s mainland, a mere 40 nautical miles in direct line from Sidney, an eager family awaits delivery of their new Riviera 64 Sports Motor Yacht in Vancouver, a city that offers a seamless blend of energy and wild coastal beauty. Departing from Coal Harbour, the skyline is dominated by the glass and steel of high-rise buildings, framed by the forested slopes of Stanley Park. From the sheltered waters of Burrard Inlet, around the edge of Stanley Park, the view opens into English Bay where the water takes on a deeper blue and the city softens. Beyond, the North Shore Mountains rise sharply, often capped with snow.
The new motor yacht will be commissioned and delivered by Freedom Marine.
Puerto Rico (right) is the destination for a new Riviera 58 Sports Motor Yacht (left).
An excited family in Puerto Rico is eagerly awaiting the arrival of their new Riviera 58 Sports Motor Yacht, opening up new opportunities to explore the region. It blends tropical scenery, calm anchorages and rare natural wonders in one of the Caribbean’s most rewarding cruising grounds. From the historic walls of Old San Juan in the capital, where pastel buildings and centuries-old forts rise above the sea, to outlying islands to the east, including Culebra and Vieques, the visual experience is stunning. At Culebra, crystal-clear waters, coral reefs and uncrowded sands beckon at Flamenco Beach. On Vieques, a unique boating experience awaits when visiting Mosquito Bay. Microscopic organisms light up blue when agitated by the movement of water at this famed bioluminescent bay. La Parguera on the south western corner of Puerto Rico island offers mangrove channels, shallow cays and relaxed cruising.
The 58 Sports Motor Yacht will be commissioned and delivered by Wally Castro Marine.
The owners of a new Riviera 6000 Sport Yacht (upper right) are familiar with the skyline of Seattle overlooking Lake Union in Washington State in north-west United States. Seattle will also be home to a new 4300 Sports Express (lower right).
Further south, in the north western United States city of Seattle, another family is awaiting delivery of their new Riviera 6000 Sport Yacht Platinum Edition. The waters around Seattle offer a striking interplay of urban skyline and rugged Pacific Northwest scenery. Departing from Lake Union, passing through the locks toward the saltwater expanse of Puget Sound, along the waterfront, the city rises in layers; glass towers, working piers and the distant silhouette of the Space Needle. To the west, the Olympic Mountains form a hazy blue wall; to the east, the Cascades stand sharper, often streaked with snow. Further out, islands appear – wooded, quiet, and edged with rocky shores.
The new 6000 SY will be delivered to her new owners along with a new Riviera 4300 Sports Express, that will be commissioned and offered for sale by Sun Country Marine.
Lake Superior, seen from Sugarloaf Mountain in Michigan (right) is the home for a new Riviera 4300 Sports Express (left).
Onekama on the shores of Lake Michigan is the destination for a new Riviera 4300 Sports Express. Onekama, on the western coast of the US State of Michigan, is a small village known as the “two lake town”, a vibrant community nestled on the north side of the small Portage Lake and just minutes from Lake Michigan. The town’s name is derived from Ona-ga-maa, an indigenous Anishinaabe word which means “singing water”. Along the village edge, small marinas and docks line the sheltered lake that is ringed by low buildings, green lawns and the wide horizon. The waterfront of Onekama has a quiet, unhurried charm. A narrow channel leads boats from the protection of Portage Lake, opening suddenly into the immense blue of Lake Michigan.
The new 4300 Sports Express will be commissioned and offered for sale by Onekama Marine.
