Riviera 395 SUV:
Light-Up the Barbie
By placing the electric grill, food prep counter, and sink in a transom console accessed from the swim platform, the Riviera 395 SUV adds utility without using space in the cockpit where guests will gather to party. The optional cockpit refrigerator is to starboard in the cockpit. Joystick control is standard, and putting another unit in the cockpit is an option we like.

Formula 430 Super Sport Crossover:
4X Mercury 400 Racing Verados,
64.2 MPH WOT

Powered with four Mercury 400 Racing Verados, she topped out at 64.2 mph. She is an opulent day boat that is eminently practical thanks to her huge swim platform, two on-deck entertaining venues, hardtop, and surprisingly large overnight accommodations below.

Captain's Report
World Cat 295CC:
High Bows for Added Buoyancy
The upswept bow of the World Cat 295CC has more freeboard than most monohulls this size. That gives her more buoyancy, which is why she can handle rough inlets or snotty seas, as well as helping to keep anglers dry at the console. Her 9’6” beam (2.90 m), carried nearly all the way to the bow, delivers more usable space than monohulls of similar LOA.
