Riviera 48 Offshore Express

Step aboard this immaculate 2008 Riviera 48 Offshore Express and experience everything that has made this model one of the most sought after single level, shaft drive Rivieras. With only 22 examples ever produced, the Riviera 48 Offshore Express is an exceptionally rare vessel - and finding one in this condition is rarer still.

Built with the craftsmanship and attention to detail that Riviera is renowned for, this vessel is as impressive at the dock as it is offshore. Powered by Cummins QSM11 660HP diesel engines, the 48 Offshore delivers the reliability and performance you'd expect from a vessel of this calibre. Whether you're running offshore to the fishing grounds or cruising the coast, the power and sea-keeping ability will inspire confidence in all conditions.

Presented in truly exceptional condition, the extensive documented maintenance history backs up every claim. Recent highlights include a full interior refit with new upholstered bedheads, wall panels and seating, complemented by a comprehensive teak decking upgrade throughout the interior. A complete salt water service was carried out in early 2025, with all heat exchangers, after-coolers, fuel coolers and gear oil coolers on both engines stripped, rebuilt and pressure tested. New house batteries and engine batteries have been fitted along with a new battery charger, meaning the entire electrical system is fresh. The vessel is kept on a strict annual slip, service and antifoul cycle, with the most recent service completed in late 2025.

The Riviera 48 Offshore Express offers a generous layout designed for serious offshore use, with comfortable accommodation for extended passages, a well-appointed saloon for entertaining, and a cockpit built for fishing. This is a true bluewater boat that does it all - and with only 22 in existence, the opportunity to own one won't last long.
