Owner Experience Review
Owners and testers tend to run the 46 Sports Motor Yachtas a do‑it‑all platform: family cruising with overnight stays, weekend entertaining on the open flybridge and alfresco deck, and occasional sportfishing or watersports from the wide cockpit. On the water the boat feels confident and highly maneuverable, with the Volvo Penta IPS and joystick making close‑quarters handling straightforward—"Hands down, pods are nice for docking a boat." Sea‑trial reports cite a blue‑water hull pedigree and a comfortable ride in moderate seas, with a smooth, efficient cruise from the twin IPS drivetrains.
Onboard livability is a standout for this size, with three staterooms and two ensuites frequently noted as impressive for a sub‑53‑foot platform. The sociable layout—aft galley, shaded alfresco deck, cockpit, foredeck sunpad, and a roomy open flybridge—supports hosting as much as extended cruising, though some owners simply prefer lower‑helm designs over an open flybridge helm. As with any IPS boat, there’s system complexity to budget for: forum owners mention sensor/electronics failures and higher costs for spares and service. Routine servicing for the twin Volvo IPS is expected and engine‑room access appears typical for the class, but given the Rivieramodel’s December 2022 launch, long‑term ownership data is still developing.
