World Premiere – Riviera 43 Offshore Express

Riviera's massive display at the Sydney Boat Show will feature the world premiere of the Riviera 43 Offshore Express, the second in a new line of models from Riviera – a sport utility vessel that is equally at home as a game fishing machine or a family entertainer.

The 43 Offshore Express is the first in this line to utilise Volvo Penta IPS propulsion. Purpose-built for this system, the boat includes a full-beam aft cabin, as well as a double master stateroom forward and a single bathroom.

The boat has a rugged sophistication while maintaining the luxurious and functional interior typical of all Rivieras, The hydrodynamics are exceptional, with running surface and chines optimised for a soft, dry ride.

A helm deck features skipper and companion chairs, an L-shaped lounge with GRP hi-low table and an aft-facing mezzanine seat. Bennett trim tabs are recessed in the hull under the transom to prevent fishing lines being caught.

This boat is the first Riviera equipped with a cutting-edge digital switching system. Based on industry proven CAN network technology, this system offers DC switching and over-current protection to 100 milliamps accuracy. Full systems monitoring and alarms includes AC voltage, current, frequency and kilowatts, DC voltage, current and battery capacity remaining, along with tank levels and systems in operation indications. 

The 43 Offshore Express is offered in three distinct configurations:

• A three-sided hardtop with a rear curtain to enclose the helm deck forward of the mezzanine.
• A version with stylish, forward-raked targa and removable bimini creating an open boat feel for great entertaining under the Sun, with the addition of  protection from the weather. Clears to the sides and rear storm curtain are included.
• An Open boat without a targa or coverings to the helm and deck area, suited to an after-market fishing tower.
