Coverage Area — French Riviera, Mediterranean & International

RivierX Engineering is based at Antibes — Port Vauban, at the heart of the French Riviera — one of the Mediterranean’s leading superyacht hubs. Cannes, Nice, Monaco and Juan-les-Pins are all within immediate reach.

When a vessel comes alongside with a tight window before departure, every hour counts. We’re already on the ground — where other providers would need to fly in from elsewhere in Europe.

Primary zone: Marseille → Toulon → Saint-Tropez → Cannes → Antibes → Nice → Monaco → Sanremo → Imperia → Genoa → Civitavecchia.

Why RivierX’s location is a concrete advantage

The French Riviera isn’t just our address — it’s our natural home ground.

Immediate mobilisation

A vessel arrives at Port Vauban with an HVAC issue and a 48-hour window before departure. We can be on board at the shortest notice following your call.

Local port knowledge

We know local constraints — yard schedules, berth access, harbourmaster contacts, the working rhythms of the major Mediterranean ports. No adaptation time — we’re operational from the moment we arrive.

Active local network

Present at key industry events: Monaco Yacht Show, MYS Antibes, Mediterranean captain and Chief Engineer associations. A referral network built on the ground.
