About the 4300 Sports Express
Highly Versatile. Pure Fun.
The Riviera 4300 Sports Express is the newest and most accessible model in the Riviera range — a highly versatile luxury motor yacht designed for owners who want to maximise every moment on the water. World-premiered at the 2025 Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show to widespread acclaim, the 4300 is described by Riviera owner Rodney Longhurst as "highly versatile, a yacht designed for all of us who wish we could spend more time on the water." At 45 feet 6 inches, she is the most manageable model in the Riviera fleet while delivering the same handcrafted quality, advanced technology, and blue-water heritage that defines every Riviera.
The 4300 is built around single-level living with an open sports deck that flows seamlessly from the saloon to the outdoors. A hydraulic swim platform articulates at the touch of a button — lowering to water level for swimming, snorkelling, and paddleboarding, or rising to dock height for easy boarding. The outdoor galley centre on the aft deck includes a BBQ, fridge, and ice maker. The saloon below benefits from an electric sunroof and hull side windows that flood the space with natural light.
Below, two generous cabins accommodate up to five guests, with the forward master stateroom featuring a walk-around queen bed and adjacent en-suite. Twin Volvo Penta D6 IPS600 (440hp, standard) or IPS650 (480hp, optional) pod drives deliver 32 knots top speed with joystick docking at three stations — helm, port and starboard cockpit lounges. Advanced CZone digital switching, Garmin Glass Cockpit, Sentinel remote monitoring, and Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries come as standard.
Key Features

Single-Level Sports Deck — Open & Social
The hallmark of the 4300 is its single-level sports deck — an open, entertaining space that flows from the covered saloon through to the open-air aft area. Flip-up steps reveal storage for a SeaBob, dive tanks, or tender fuel. Completely hose-out for easy cleaning.
🏊
Hydraulic Swim Platform — Sea Deck
At the touch of a button, the electro-hydraulic swim platform descends to water level — becoming a full sea deck for swimming, snorkelling, and water toys. Raises to dock height for easy boarding. Twin transom flush-opening doors for instant water access.
