Overview
Recently serviced and detailed. Whatever Bytes is survey ready.
The Riviera 505 SUV has the same pedigree of a single level alfresco entertainer with thrilling blue-water ability but with the added dimension of the mezzanine: a beautiful wining, dining and relaxing space offering privacy and protection from harsh sun and weather all year round. Escape par excellence. The SUV concept demands a generous cockpit, low to the water to maximise the action and adventure of the full spectrum of water sports. And that’s what the cockpit of the 505 delivers. Picture yourself cruising the great waterways of the world, diving in the Bahamas, or fishing on the Reef. Anything and everything is possible on board your Riviera 505 SUV.
World famous, ocean tested, Riviera build quality and strength underpin spirited, enduring performance and retained resale value. And no motor yacht could be more luxurious or better appointed. From bow to boarding platform, you’ll relish the Riviera attention to detail, handcrafted luxury and astonishing operational technology. This is cruising on an unprecedented scale of comfort and ease. And the 505 SUV adds a dimension to refined living below decks with a full beam master stateroom, private ensuite and walk-in robe as well as two guest staterooms with shared bathroom. And then, of course, there is the Volvo Penta Glass Cockpit navigation system and silkysmooth and economical performance of twin Volvo Penta IPS turbo diesels with fingertip easy joystick control.
Whatever Bytes is a 2022 Riviera 505 SUV that was custom ordered and upgraded to be the perfect 50 foot cruising and fishing yacht. The original owners have done the loop and cruised the Bahamas extensively. Now they are ready for new adventures, so it's time to let another enjoy this beautiful cruising and fishing machine. The Seller has extensive and detailed service records. Between maintenance and upgrades the invoices total over $300,000.00. If you want to save hundreds of thousands over ordering a new boat, not have to spend hundreds more on upgrades, not have to wait years for it to be built, and have a like new turn key yacht, Whatever Bytes is the yacht for you. This yacht is in beautiful condition and ready to take you on your next adventure.
The 505 SUV is a smooth running and sea taming yacht that comes up on plane quickly with very little bow rise. Once on plane they run flat and true, due to the perfectly balanced hull, keel, and abundance of power from the Volvo IPS 950's. With a cruise speed between 28-30 knots and a top speed around 34 knots the SUV will get you to your destination quickly. The 3 stateroom 2 head layout with a large mid-ship master cabin is sure to please. The 505 SUV is a favorite in the Riviera model line. Come see why.

Riviera Yachts
Welcome to the largest luxury yacht building facility in the Southern Hemisphere, our purpose-built, state-of-the-art 16.8 hectare site at Coomera, Gold Coast, Australia. Here, on the largest island continent on Earth, totally surrounded by three oceans and four seas, we build on the renowned Australian qualities of strength, practicality and love of water. Then we test our designs in some of the world’s toughest offshore conditions. Our 800-strong Riviera team applies lessons learnt more than 41 years and the building of over 5700 luxury motor yachts. Handcrafting yachts internationally feted for their peerless quality, build materials, structural strength, ease of operation and fine luxury finish. Today, Riviera exports around 55% of our annual production to a global dealer network spanning every continent. We design and build luxury motor yachts from 39 to 78 feet in length across five distinct model collections.

New models designed to satisfy our owners’ ever evolving needs are forever on our minds and drawing boards.

Utilizing the finest Construction Methods: State-of-the-art digital kitting is utilized to precisely cut all fiberglass and structural foams for the lamination process to ensure that each component fits perfectly. The finest quality joinery is created by exacting CNC precision-cut timbers with all cabinets hand built by master craftspeople. Each mold is thoroughly inspected, cleaned and waxed before the initial application of isophthalic gelcoat is sprayed to provide a high gloss and superior water and fade resistant finish. Closed molding techniques are utilized to manufacture small parts where these precise components require lighter weight and very high quality finishes. The superior internal varnished finishes are achieved by a robotic varnish machine which has a humidified drying room to cure the painted surface. Up to five coats of varnish are applied. Riviera hulls are hand-laid with multi or quad fiberglass matting over core materials such as foam and sealed with vinyl ester resin, due to its superior ability to withstand water absorption. Hull construction is a very intricate and skilled process and hand-laid fiberglass construction is far superior in strength to any other method. The hull and deck surface finishes have great impact resistance. A finished hull can be almost 20 mm thick – solid fiberglass below the waterline with great strength where it matters most. Major structural components of a Riviera yacht are manufactured from glass reinforced plastic (GRP) to give immense strength and service life to the yacht. To produce a high-strength and watertight connection, the joining of the hull and deck is a three-stage process that involves bonding, bolting and internal fiberglass strapping. All fuel tanks fitted to a Riviera yacht are manufactured from GRP with fire-retardant resin, have structural internal baffles for stability and are fiberglassed in place to create great structural strength. All wiring looms, air-conditioning and water lines are color-coded and tagged for precision and identification. Each yacht spends two days being prepared for sea trials and then 4 to 6 hours being put through its paces with an engineer, electrician and engine manufacturer’s representative onboard. From elegantly understated to magnificently bold, only the finest, hand-selected premium New Zealand leathers are used. Superior-grade timbers have been hand-selected including walnut, cherry, oak, teak and wenge to allow the personalization of your yacht. All exterior stainless steel is crafted from high-quality 316 grade which offers better overall corrosion-resistance properties. Riviera glass windscreens are fabricated in premium-grade curved glass and all windows offer resistance to thermal transfer. Every Riviera features durable and corrosion-resistant, anodized aluminum sliding side windows. Call us today for more information at 941-365-9095.
