Riviera ProTournament

Ready to fish? This 2001 Riviera 36’ Pro Tournament is ready to take you to the fish with speed, comfort and style. This 36’ flybridge is one of the highly-desirable Pro Tournament editions. If you aren’t familiar with Rivieras which are built in Australia, they stack up solidly against Cabos and Hatteras flybridges while running a bit drier in high seas. Current owner has loved this boat since he purchased in 2008 treating it to frequent maintenance and regular upgrades. Increased work responsibilities leave no time to enjoy this beautiful craft and now you can be the owner of what would likely cost almost 1 million dollars to replicate new for a fraction of that cost.

Power is provided by twin Cummins 370B Diamond edition engines that can get this monster over 30 knots in the right conditions.
