True Riviera

A yacht that has had recent investment poured into her galley, sunroof and connectivity is a different proposition from one merely advertised as ready. True Riviera, a Princess flybridge built in 2016, went through a 2024 refit covering her interior fittings and onboard technology. She lies in Monaco, sleeps 8 guests in 4 cabins and carries a crew of 2 to look after them.

Build and provenance

Princess built her in 2016 as a flybridge cruiser, one of the yard's Fly-series models, and she had a refit in 2024 that touched the tender, the carpeting, the sunroof mechanism, the entertainment and connectivity systems, and the galley appliances, including a new washer-dryer and dishwasher. For a buyer, a documented 2024 refit on a 2016 hull means the living systems are recent even though the hull itself is not new.

Layout and accommodation

Eight guests sleep across 4 cabins aboard True Riviera, arranged around a full-beam Owner's suite on the lower deck, a forward VIP cabin, a twin cabin and one further stateroom. The main deck salon takes panoramic windows down its sides, and aft the cockpit opens into an exterior dining area, where meals can move outside the saloon.

Performance and engineering

Twin MAN engines rated at 1,400 hp each give True Riviera her push, paired with a 20kW Cummins generator for hotel loads at anchor, and fin stabilisers work both underway and at rest to keep the ride level. For a new owner that combination means less to upgrade: the mechanical side of the boat has already been sized for comfortable cruising rather than left to be sorted out later.

Where she lies and how to see her

True Riviera lies in Monaco. A viewing is arranged through Boatcrowd, and we are there for it rather than leaving a buyer to walk the boat alone. Once an offer is accepted, the next steps are a survey and a sea trial before anything is finalised.
