Riviera's newest models take a bow
'Stellar' performance at the Sydney International Boat ShowThe first model in Riviera’s new SUV Collection, the 445, took centre stage at the 2012 Sydney International Boat Show, where she made her debut performance in front of thousands of boating enthusiasts.
The 445 was one of the stars of the show with Riviera taking two deposits for this new model, one bound for an owner in Adelaide and the other bound for an owner in the US where she will make her American debut at the 2012 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show held from October 25-29.
This new model lead Riviera’s raft of new boats, including from the Sport Yacht range; the 5800 with IPS or Zeus, 5000 with Zeus, 4400 Series II with IPS and the 3600 with IPS; from the Flybridge range, the 63 Enclosed Flybridge with shaft drive, 53 Enclosed Flybridge with Zeus or IPS and 43 Open Flybridge with IPS; and from the Belize Motoryacht range; the new Belize 52 Daybridge.
Riviera’s director of brand and communications Stephen Milne said there was strong interest in Riviera’s latest models, including the new 50 Enclosed Flybridge which is due for release mid 2013.
"The Sydney International Boat Show was indeed very encouraging for Riviera with a total of $11 million in retail sales achieved over the five days of the show with a significant number of these sales representing new boats that are yet to commence construction," Mr Milne said.
"We released the final details and pricing of our new 50 Enclosed Flybridge which will have its world release at the 2013 Sydney International Boat Show and is now in full product development.
"This entirely new model certainly impressed the Australian boating market with two contracts signed for the 50 to customers from Melbourne and the Gold Coast.
"It is pleasing to see the diverse range of boats that have been sold to various locations around Australia and across the Pacific, including two 43 Open Flybridges bound for New Zealand and Queensland, one 3600 Sport Yacht and one 5000 Sport Yacht both to Sydney-based customers, and three new Belize 52 Daybridges bound for two owners in Sydney and one owner in north Queensland, said Mr Milne.
