About the 46 Sports Motor Yacht
Long-Range Adventure Starts Here The Entry SMY
The Riviera 46 Sports Motor Yacht is where the SMY concept begins — a purpose-built 52-foot adventure yacht with an enclosed, air-conditioned flybridge, walk-around side decks, and a wide-open cockpit ready for every water sport. This is a blue-water-proven machine in a 52-foot package: everything you need for serious coastal and offshore passages with the luxury to enjoy every moment of them.
Three staterooms including a full-beam master accommodate six guests. Twin Volvo D11 IPS950 at 725hp each deliver an impressive 34.7 knots top speed — the highest top speed in the SMY range. The 46 SMY is the platform for serious owner-operators who want to cover ground quickly and arrive in style.
Key Features
✈
Enclosed Flybridge — All-Weather Command
The fully enclosed, air-conditioned flybridge is the defining feature of every Riviera Sports Motor Yacht. A state-of-the-art helm station with Garmin Glass Cockpit, comfortable climate control, and commanding views in all conditions.
📄
Walk-Around Side Decks — Blue-Water DNA
Wide, safe walk-around side decks are a Sports Motor Yacht essential — enabling the crew to move safely around the yacht in all sea conditions. A detail that distinguishes the SMY range from enclosed sport yachts.
🚤
Wide Open Cockpit — All Water Sports
The cockpit is wide, uncluttered, and fully action-ready — with twin boarding gates, a live bait well, rod holders, and hydraulic swim platform for fishing, diving, and every water sport imaginable.
🏠
Full-Beam Master — Long-Range Comfort
A full-beam master stateroom ensures the longest passages are made in genuine luxury. All cabins are designed for extended use, with headroom, natural light, and storage that rivals much larger yachts.
🎯
34.7 Knots — Quickest in the SMY Range
With twin IPS950 pods perfectly matched to the 46's lightweight hull, this is the quickest Sports Motor Yacht in the range — reaching 34.7 knots during official testing. Speed without compromise on range or comfort.
🐟
Fishing-Ready Cockpit
Live bait well, rod holders, twin boarding gates, and a serious hydraulic swim platform make the 46 fully capable as a sportfishing vessel — without sacrificing any of its cruising luxury.
