An expansion on their X Class, the X80 made a grand entrance at the 2023 Palm Beach International Boat Show. We made sure to stop by to get a first-hand look.

About The X80

Available with an optional main deck master stateroom which includes a private owner’s sundeck, the X80’s capabilities for adventure provides the opportunity to explore cruising grounds further afield with the option of a long range 8,800 litre tank.

The X80 brings the outside in through the maximisation of glazing which flows along the entire length of the main deck encasing the saloon, galley and forward dining area. The use of light and innovative design continues below decks where 8 guests are accommodated across 4 en-suite cabins, a full beam master stateroom located amidships, a forward guest stateroom, a double guest to starboard and a twin cabin to port. Located aft of the main accommodation is the crew quarters which can accommodate 3 crew with the standard layout. Life on-board the X80 really is unlike that of any other boat of its size.

About Riviera Yachts

“Innovation has always been at the heart of Riviera. Launching a single new 38 MKI model in 1980 helped launch an ambitious new company in Sydney in 1980. Perhaps already glimpsing a bright future, by 1981 Riviera relocated to the Gold Coast, Queensland, with a staff of five building eight new boats in the year.

Under Rodney and Chief Executive Officer Wes Moxey’s leadership, the Riviera collections we celebrate today are continuously evolving and being refined to take their place among the world’s finest. And our story has only just begun…”

Launched at FLIBS 2022, the CL Yachts CLX96 is the introduction to a new line of vessels from the builder. Yachting got on board to learn more about this new sea activity vessel.

About CL Yachts:

“Innovation sits at the core of everything we do at CL Yachts. It is a character trait passed down from our parent company, who has led with a progressive heart throughout a history that spans over a century. Along with pioneering fiberglass and vacuum-bagged construction techniques, achievements include crafting the world’s first all-foam cored production motor yacht, and the world’s largest fiberglass motorboat with a Lloyd’s Register classification. It was only natural that CL Yachts was born with the same desire to push the boundaries, never merely asking “why?”, and instead asking “why not?””

With its North American debut at the 2022 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, the Ocean Alexander 28E introduces the new “Explorer” range for the builder. We got on board to get a closer look.

About Ocean Alexander

“In 1977, Alex Chueh gave Ocean Alexander his name, his steely endurance and his insistence on engineering that leads the industry. Today, the first boats he produced sell for triple their original price.

Now under the direction of Alex’s son, Johnny Chueh, Ocean Alexander creates revolutionary ideas, astonishing beauty and luxury — never compromising its high engineering principles. Ocean Alexander has built its early Taiwan roots into U.S. manufacturing, worldwide service, and strong alliances with the finest architects and designers in the world.

Every yacht is a dream made real. An object of great beauty and an engineering marvel all at the same time. But does a beautiful boat seem as perfect if you find yourself in an unforgiving sea? Or half a world away from home? Ocean Alexander is obsessed with proving that our yachts’ unmistakable splendor and engineering excellence will never fail you. We’re fanatical about performance. Gripped with the idea that any object this wondrous and rare deserves to be constantly examined and refined. Every Ocean Alexander yacht is the product of passionate people infused with tremendous talent. We know your yacht may be the greatest infatuation of your life because it’s the greatest infatuation of our own.”
