New models boost strong Riviera sales at SCIBS

Australia's largest luxury boatbuilder, Riviera, said it completed the annual Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show (SCIBS) with a total of 26 boats sold over the four-day event

Tim Sayer, managing director of R Marine, Riviera's retail network, said the organisers had done a great job in presenting the 20th Show.


"We had a fantastic display with a total of 28 boats -15 Rivieras, eight Princess boats and five Grand Banks models," said Sayer.


"We had three world releases at the Show, our Riviera 61 Enclosed Flybridge and 38 Open Flybridge as well as the new Grand Banks 65 Aleutian. It was also the first time at Sanctuary Cove for our 4400 Sport Yacht - named Boat Of The Year at the start of the Show - the 48 Offshore Express and 47 Enclosed Flybridge. It is clear that our new models are generating a great deal of interest for boat owners," Sayer said.


"While the total number of boats sold was down on last year's record 31, the value was higher at $40 million due to the strong interest in larger models. We contracted the fifth Riviera 70 during the Show, for example," said Sayer.
