Watching this tour thinking wow this boat has a LOT of beer fridges, then I see it’s made here in Australia and it all made sense. Hehe Lovely bit of kit.

I really enjoy when Marianne makes a cameo! When I dream of owning a yacht and all the fascinating people I would try to lure onboard for conversation, the two of you always find your way on that list.

Marianne tucked herself away with a good book! Love it!!!🎉🎉

I don't know who would ever need more than this. Spectacular cruiser with superyacht features. The enclosed helm deck is amazing and the space it opens below makes the salon so spacious you don't even notice the loss of space due to the staircase. The bow social area is huge and the performance on this beast is phenomenal. I don't think I've seen a yacht that can do mid 30s flat out with a 2500 mile range at displacement speeds. You can easily cruise to the Caribbean in style, fuel up and have tons of fast fun! I think this is one of the best boats Nick has reviewed.

Surprise guest visit by Marianne!!! She is just wonderful

Now this is a great and modern take on a boat. Especially with the raised pilot position.

Marianne looks like she could get accustomed to that level of nautical comfort very quickly.

Wonderful layout! Amazed at the size, seems more like a 90’! Nice separation of living areas, no lack of entertaining areas or refrigeration and you found a lovely lady on your tour! Did you keep the staff busy while Marianne made off with the yacht? Was that the plan? Really enjoyed a look at that one, amazing amount packed into 78’!

That little wave for Marianne and she was already tucked away reading a good book. Nice motor yacht Well thought out.

Four cabins with a full beam master, someone has been paying attention. A tucked away cockpit with a double grill and privacy shades. Plenty of power to motor along. This yacht has it all in spades I only see one thing that I would change. The crew cabin access stairs I would close that in with a proper door on the main deck. And on top of that having The King of presenters show it off for them. Bravo Rivera you didn't miss a thing on this one. No wonder you have sold so many so fast !!!

I really like the ingenuity that Riviera put into this boat. While I would have done things differently, this clearly was a thoughtful design that really aimed to get as much use out of the space as possible. Well done on their part.

Thank you for the tour. And you have a stowaway! Hello Marianne! 🍷 Cheers.

Another great yacht tour, and with a Marianne cameo - fantastic!

This yacht is amazing. I am impressed with the use of space, especially the elimination of the sunbeds on the bow and the upper deck. This much improves the social spaces in both areas. The enclosed upper deck is also a great feature; it gives an additional area protected from the elements. Altogether, one of my favorites from your channel. Yours is the best channel as regards yacht overviews. And the beautiful model in the master cabin is icing on the cake.

Riviera.... Their factory in Coomera, Australia was just around the corner from the college where I did boat building.... Never did work for them, ended up working for Telwater across from them. The anti slip stairs is something I did put around the pool.

awsome nick these riviera boats were my first love in boating and i still love em austrailian made very proud of them you have converted me to sunseekers as my fave them and gallian great work bro

the unexpected Marianne even with the proverbial good book. What a day! :)

A nice family boat I can't sit very long in the sun so I like the seating area at the front. The blind at the back like that for privacy useful in the Mediterranean if stern docking. The salon looks very comfortable and light and airy. The cabins are good size and nicely decorated. Like the idea of the safety wires for the ventilation portholes. The planners have thought of everything. The engines she can move fast but she s long distance Lady of the speed is dropped. Very flexible boat. Thanks Nick.

What a stunning layout!! Something different. Low key, comfortable and so much space. Made perfect with a Marieanne tucked away with a good book !!

Mr Nick and His Better Half Kicking it on 1 of the most surprisingly BEAUTIFUL, CAPABLE BOATS OF THW YEAR FOR ME🔥 12 sold HUH🤔🤔🤔 SPEAKS FOR ITSELF ✊🏽RESPECT!!!!! Big UPs from Dallas 🤘🏽

I really like this one. It has a very beachy tiny home feel to me. I could actually find that quite comfortable to live on. For $5.3 million it is not very ostentatious.

I love boats with the upper helm and sky lounge. They're great on bad weather days. More room for everyone to stretch out

Oh wow, TWO Burnham Waves™, one from Nick then another from Marianne!!! It's a nice little boat, with some neat and refreshing design elements. I'll keep it in mind if I ever get to such a point.

Love the cameo, made me smile. I’ve watched so many of your videos as well as those by David and Rico and Victoria and I’m not sure why but I’m always very interested in the workings of the boat even more than the accommodations. The helm, the engine room, and the crew quarters say a lot to me about not just the manufacturer but the owner of the yacht. Being the crew on a yacht is not just hard work but it is very serious because peoples lives are at stake.

Very nice lay-out with only the upper helm. Same with the upper heads, very practical it would seem. Great video and always a pleasure to see Marianne during one of these tours!

I love hearing you say, " bits and pieces ".

I love your videos... see you in this video is so fun.... it took me about 3 months to learn to drive in the left side... to ride was not a problem.... but to ride and find the way that was tough... first 3 months I was so contrasting on the traffic. But after that it was easy... Hope you have a wonderfull life.. and say hello to your wonderful wife! 😊

I think I need to add this to my favorite top 5 yachts, super yachts don't go on this list, wouldn't be fair. I really like the internal stairs to the upper deck. You give up space, but this more than compensates. I think I'd keep the cabins like this, I don't need office space, but think the crew cabin would be more of a utility room. I like the flexibility duo use cabins give you if you want. I love the high/low platform and foredeck flexibility. Amazing boat, thank you Marianne for sharing Nick with us on this tour.

The galley, open to the exterior... That is a lovely place to be.

Very nice! I was not expecting it to be different from other 78' boats. This would be a great live aboard in Florida.

Great layout. In the crews quarters. I’d put the bunk higher up. Then underneath there is room for a small sink, toaster, kettle and a very small fridge. As you know, the further out to sea you go. The smaller the boat becomes. In the morning make a cuppa and back under the covers to read some. Without bothering guests and owner.

Boat of the year 2023 . Nothing comes close. Dishwasher opposite oven . Missed by that much Nic.

I do like how they used polished wood, but didn't go overboard (pun intended) on it. The varnished wood on the steps is an excellent touch. Nice cameo by Marianne. Special thanks for that unintentional shot of the beauty in the white dress at 13:29. I'm a sucker for that single strap style and she wears it well. Thanks for the video! SIDE QUESTION: Would a single crew member _always_ be a captain? Or has anyone known of a solo crew member being a stew, engineer or deckhand?

No, not at all. I know of people who run their own boat, but want someone to help with food preparation, washing up, general deckhand, boat cleaning etc, and employ someone on that basis.
