R Marine opens in Mandurah

Long-time Riviera owner Carl Segreto never imagined he would be opening his own Riviera dealership, but on May 11 he celebrated the official opening of R Marine Mandurah with more than 100 Riviera owners.

It was a cocktail party to remember for those who joined the new team as they raised their glasses in a toast to Riviera’s newest dealership in Western Australia.

Carl said there was a real need for a Riviera presence in Mandurah, which is located 75 kilometres south of Perth, and he hoped to offer a new level of service and knowledge to his owners through a host of functions, events and owner experiences.

"There are 550 Rivieras in Western Australia, 140 of them are in the Mandurah area alone," Carl said.

"As a Riviera owner I never had the opportunity to go on a lot of Perth-based events because we were some distance from Perth but I have a real passion for the Riviera brand, the product and the people.

“I have owned many boats during my life but for 25 years I dreamed of owning a Riviera. I get excited about the boat shows and I love touring through the Riviera factory on Queensland’s Gold Coast.”

As a multiple Riviera owner, Carl understands what Riviera owners want and need and with the support of his team -- Paul Cotton in sales, Kate Martin in reception, Amanda Collins in administration, Sharron Segreto in events, and Veronica Wools in marketing -- he looks forward to hosting many more functions and events.

A diesel mechanic by trade, Carl has spent 27 years in the transport industry. He bought his first truck upon completion of his apprenticeship and his fleet and transport business grew from there. In his career he has clocked up more than three-million kilometres travelling the highways between Perth and Melbourne, Perth and Sydney, and Perth and Brisbane.

R Marine Mandurah is encouraging Riviera owners in the area to register with the new dealership to receive exclusive invitations to events and the latest R Marine Mandurah news. To officially mark the opening of the new dealership, R Marine Mandurah is offering a 10 per cent reduction in the next service cost to all those who register with the dealership before the end of July.  To register simply email your details to info@rmarinemandurah.com.au
