 Rivanna overview
line

Sleek lines, fabulous layouts & impressive performance characterize the Rivanna series.

This is a true motoryacht from bow to stern. What typifies a motoryacht: distinct lines from a design that includes such details as an open clean bow, sharply raked aerodynamic windows, a spacious flybridge, a central raised saloon & of course an accommodating sun deck that is ideal for social gatherings. These are all hallmarks of the Rivanna series motoryacht.

The Rivanna series ranges in size from 54' to 58'. The various sizes offer the same layout options with the additional length being added to the transom, providing increasingly larger aft cockpit wells. The 56' & 58" are ideal for owners looking to either fish the boat or wanting an open cockpit in addition to the sundeck. The longer waterline also helps with more efficient running at displacement speeds & a more comfortable ride at planing speeds.

The Rivanna series is built out of the Hershine shipyard in Taiwan. The craftsmen in this yard are capable of implementing specific design requests within reason. Should you desire a special cabinet or shelf, they would be happy to accommodate your request. You have a distinct choice between galley up or galley down layouts. Each offers is their own advantages.

Explore the features & layouts & you will see that the Rivanna series excels in a multitude of roles, from entertaining your friends & family to serving as a peaceful & luxurious refuge away from the chaos of life ashore. The Rivanna series delivers!

It is a matter of taste & desired use that will dictate which style best suits your lifestyle. We would be happy to discuss the benefits of each model & help you understand which model is just right for you. Please contact us today to learn more.

The profile of the Rivanna series is sleek yet classic in nature. The foredeck is clean & uncluttered. The high stainless bow rails add an important margin of safety. All exterior stainless is premium grade 316 for maximum corrosion resistance. Moving aft, the raked saloon windows make for a clean transition from foredeck to the saloon & flybridge superstructure. Protected walkways are located on both sides of the saloon for secure passage. The protected aft deck is the highlight of the Rivanna deck plan. Perfect for entertaining in any kind of weather, day or night, this is the area of the boat where you and your guests can enjoy a glass of wine and a beautiful sunset, or it’s the perfect place to have a quiet evening alone. The aft swimstep provides a secure boarding point from your tender. The 56' & 58' provide increasingly larger cockpits that are ideal for additional entertaining space of to satisfy the fisherman on board.

Below decks you have a smartly laid out floorplan placing the two staterooms at opposing ends to maximize privacy. The owners cabin is aft with ensuite head & shower. The washer dryer combo is conveniently located in the cabin. The centerline queen berth is located on centerline to provide access from both sides. The custom linen package provides perfectly fitted sheets & a comforter.

A galley-up or galley-down floorplan is available to suit your preferences. The raised saloon, & galley if chosen, provides a splendid view with ample lighting from the numerous surrounding windows. The galley-up arrangement allows for the addition of a 3rd stateroom. This option is perfect for owners wanting their children & grandkids aboard or serves equally well as a closet/storage room.
