New to market 2015 Riviera 565 SUV - Escape Pod. Photos are recent of actual boat taken in November 2025. Recent additions include seakeeper, starlink, and AIS. Services are up to date and ESCAPE POD is ready for her next adventure. She is professionally maintained by a local company with a Riviera pedigree. This Riviera 565 SUV is owned and operated by a retired commercial pilot who is passionate about her care. 

The SUV collection is a culmination of more than 40 years of boat building design, experience and extensive owner feedback from around the world.

Bearing Riviera’s classic hallmark design, the 565 SUV has been crafted with Riviera’s rich-heritage in mind. Combining the high performance, blue water cruising abilities and large open cockpit of the classic Flybridge with the fish raising abilities of the Offshore Express, and the single-level leisurely, entertaining features of the popular Sport Yacht series, has created a vessel like no other, a true bridge between all of them.
