Listing Price: $549,900
Overview
Offered by her original owner, this Riviera 51 Flybridge Team Riviera Edition represents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a highly upgraded, tournament-capable sportfishing yacht that combines Riviera's renowned craftsmanship with serious offshore performance. Built on Riviera's proven hull design and powered by twin Caterpillar 3406E diesel engines rated at 800 horsepower each, this vessel delivers the reliability, range, and fishability that have made the Riviera brand a favorite among serious anglers and cruising families alike.
Designed for extended time on the water, the Riviera 51 offers spacious accommodations and a versatile layout that is equally comfortable cruising to distant destinations or pursuing offshore gamefish.
Salon & Galley
The salon features beautiful cherry wood cabinetry throughout, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere while showcasing Riviera's attention to detail and craftsmanship. Large windows provide excellent natural light, while the open-concept layout allows for effortless entertaining and socializing.
The galley is thoughtfully equipped for extended cruising, featuring a dual-burner cooktop, convection microwave oven, teak and holly flooring, Sub-Zero freezer, and four U-Line refrigerated drawers. Recent upgrades include a new 90-pound ice maker, providing ample ice production for entertaining or offshore fishing trips.
Accommodations
Below deck, the vessel offers a comfortable three-stateroom, two-head layout with accommodations for six overnight guests. The thoughtfully designed interior provides ample storage, generous headroom, and the comforts necessary for extended cruising with family and friends.
Multiple air conditioning systems with integrated dehumidifiers ensure year-round comfort throughout the vessel, while numerous opening hatches equipped with screens and blackout shades provide excellent ventilation when desired.
Flybridge & Tower
The expansive tournament-style flybridge offers exceptional visibility and ample seating for guests, comfortably accommodating large groups while underway. A convertible dinette provides additional sleeping accommodations when needed, making the bridge a versatile gathering space both at sea and in port.
The custom full tower is equipped with electronic controls, navigation equipment, and a Ritchie compass, providing the visibility and functionality demanded by serious offshore anglers. The fully enclosed removable Isinglass enclosure offers protection from the elements while maintaining excellent sightlines in all conditions.
Cockpit & Fishing Features
With a massive 12' x 9' cockpit featuring a renewed teak deck, this Riviera has been outfitted to meet the demands of serious tournament fishing. The cockpit is exceptionally well-equipped with extensive rod storage, tackle storage, bait systems, fish handling equipment, and multiple washdown stations.
A custom Offshore 170-gallon split live bait system with integrated lighting and viewing windows serves as the centerpiece of the fishing package, complemented by four transom-mounted tuna tubes, a 30-gallon transom bait tank, teaser reels, a removable macerated fish hold, tackle locker, under-gunnel storage compartments, and both fresh and saltwater washdown systems.
Combined with the vessel's extensive electronics package, tower controls, and offshore-ready design, this Riviera is exceptionally well-suited for competitive tournament fishing, long-range offshore excursions, and family cruising alike.
