Owner Experience Review

Owners describe the 47 Open FlybridgebyRivieraas a genuinely versatile platform: it does family cruising and extended coastal passages with ease, doubles as an offshore sportfisher with a proper cockpit, and works well as a liveaboard or weekend retreat. The open saloon entertainer layout with a large U‑shape galley and dinette supports that versatility, while three cabins — a forward master, a large amidships cabin, and a third bunk cabin — are frequently likened to apartment‑ or hotel‑like spaces. Interior finish draws praise, with one review noting “The aroma of sumptuous leather upholstery and teak woodwork overtake the senses,” and owners highlight generous storage, a big underfloor lazarette, and a social, high‑visibility flybridge.

On the water, reviewers report a slippery running surface and reassuring behavior — “Her forward momentum was unwavering, no matter what swell and chop she cleaved through.” Typical test figures cite a long‑range cruise around 22 kt at roughly 1800 rpm, about 28 kt at ~2100 rpm, and top speeds in the low 30s with 660 hp engines. Gen‑II refinements such as propeller tunnels and underwater exhausts are credited with lower noise and improved performance via a shallower shaft angle. Noted quibbles include an electronic shift system with a perceptible roughly one‑second delay that takes some getting used to, plus practical maintenance realities: engine‑room access via a cockpit hatch/ladder is accommodating but angle and layout vary by boat; some serious offshore users consider alternative genset mounting for serviceability; and used‑boat histories commonly show recurring system work — raw‑water pumps and impellers, battery bank/charger projects, transmission rebuilds, generator replacements, and routine attention to AC, Racor filtration, sea strainers, and through‑hulls.

Pros and Cons

• Pro: Versatile layout supports family cruising, offshore sportfishing, and liveaboard weekends with real storage and a social flybridge.
• Pro: Reassuring sea‑keeping with a slippery running surface and tested cruise around 22–28 kt, topping out in the low 30s with 660 hp.
• Pro: High perceived interior quality with an open saloon, large U‑shape galley/dinette, and three cabins often described as hotel‑like.
• Con: The electronic shift system has a noticeable roughly one‑second delay that requires adaptation when maneuvering.
• Con: Engine‑room access via the cockpit ladder/hatch is workable but depends on ladder angle and layout, so it merits close inspection.
• Con: Genset placement and the yacht’s system‑rich nature can mean recurring, sometimes costly maintenance on pumps, batteries/chargers, transmissions, generators, AC, and filtration.
