First AND Last boat? Riviera 395 SUV Walkthrough

The Riviera 395 SUV sits in an interesting position. For some people, this could genuinely be their first “real” motor yacht… and for others, it could easily be their last. If you want the comfort, offshore capability and solid feel of a serious cruising platform without dealing with the logistics and stairs of a much larger boat, the 395 starts making a lot of sense. In this video, we take a proper look at what makes this boat work so well for two completely different owners: Someone moving up from outboard-powered boats and wanting something manageable, or an experienced Riviera owner looking to simplify without giving up comfort and capability. The layout is practical, the single-level living works extremely well, and the Volvo IPS setup makes docking far less intimidating than many people expect in a boat this size. This isn’t a fishing-first platform, and it’s not trying to be the biggest boat in the marina. What it does offer is a very balanced mix of comfort, usability, entertaining space and genuine cruising ability in a package that still feels approachable to operate. In the walkthrough, we break down the design, layout and ownership practicality. In the test drive, we see how she actually behaves around the marina, underway and at cruising speed because that’s the part brochures can’t really tell you.
