Humphree Stabilization factory standard on new Riviera 645 SUV

Riviera Boats in Australia is preparing for the April world premiere of the 645 SUV, the new flagship model in its SUV series.

For premium comfort and performance, the 645 SUV is equipped with 0.8m² Humphree All Speed Stabilization Fins and X900 Interceptors as standard.

The builder launched the SUV series in 2012, and the current flagship of the six-model collection is the 575.

Riviera created the new 645 SUV in collaboration with 4D Designs to include a choice of three or four staterooms, three heads, and a space aft that can be set up as a utility area, crew’s quarters or guest stateroom.

The yacht also has walkaround side decks and a foredeck with entertaining space for eight to 10 people.

“The tremendous versatility of the SUV design lends itself perfectly to a larger yacht, and the 645 will certainly take our SUV to a new level with even more space, performance, cruising range, accommodation and luxury,” Riviera owner Rodney Longhurst stated in a press release.

For power, owners can choose twin 1,300 hp MAN V-8s or twin 1,550 hp MAN V-12s. Cruise speed is expected to be about 30 knots, with a projected top-end speed of around 34 knots. Fuel capacity is about 1,700 gallons.

Owners can choose the Classic Edition or the Newport Edition with a series of personalisation designs for both the interior and exterior design and finishes. In both versions, the galley is to port with an island bench and the helm on centerline.
