The Riviera 48 racked up some impressive sales figures during her production years, the result of her striking good looks, spacious interior, and a very competitive price. Like all Rivieras, the 48 is heavily built on a solid fiberglass hull with a wide beam and a shallow keel. For an extra margin of safety, a collision bulkhead is forward and two watertight bulkheads are built into the engine room. Her three-stateroom layout offers a dinette forward to starboard. The master stateroom is located to starboard for those who prefer a quieter ride while underway. Additional features include
cherry interior trim, full entertainment center, leather upholstery, transom door, molded tackle center, swim platform, and cockpit access to the engine room.
