Seven-model line-up for Riviera at SCIBS

Riviera says the company will present a seven-model red-carpet showcase, including two world premieres at the Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show opening on May 24.

The on-water display features three Sport Yachts – the 4800, 5400 and the flagship 6000 model – the 52 Enclosed Flybridge and a Belize 54 Daybridge.

The sporty 395 SUV and the magnificent 72 Sports Motor Yacht will both have their world premieres at the show.

Riviera owner Rodney Longhurst said the Riviera and Belize range of designs appeal to a breadth of motor yachting pursuits and cruising aspirations.

Every model in our Sanctuary Cove showcase will feature the very latest in marine technology, including Glass Cockpit navigation and systems monitoring, CZone digital switching and joystick controls.

Sport Yachts on display
The Sport Yachts offer an array accommodation options from the two-stateroom/two bathroom 4800 and the three-stateroom/two bathroom 5400 to the 6000 with three or four-cabin layout, the option of a lower atrium lounge and three bathrooms. A Presidential layout in the 6000 offers a full-beam master stateroom amidships and a sizeable walk-in wardrobe.

A substantial swim platform, tender garage and an alfresco cockpit design that merges with a lavish interior with fully equipped aft galley and opulent and expansive saloon are common traits of the Riviera Sport Yacht collection. Each model also includes the benefits of a wide walk-around side deck leading to a foredeck that features a comfortable sun lounge.

Owners enjoy spirited performance through Volvo Penta's IPS twin-turbo-diesel propulsion and pod drives along with its joystick controls for superior handling and low-speed manoeuvring.

52 Enclosed Flybridge
The 52 Enclosed Flybridge is a three-stateroom motor yacht that extends the distinctive indoor/outdoor luxury lifestyle features, practicality of design, easy-to-use technology and offshore capabilities for which Riviera is renowned.

An entertainer cockpit offers transom seating and a forward mezzanine lounge and barbecue unit. The rear bulkhead includes a sliding door and awning window that, when opened, create a sense of light and space between cockpit and the luxurious interior.

Forward of the U-shaped aft galley, a sumptuous saloon features a large C-shaped lounge to port with a hi-lo dining table with a three-seater settee opposite.

The accommodation deck provides three magnificent staterooms and two bathrooms with options for a midships or forward master with ensuite bathroom.

The enclosed flybridge, accessed from the lounge by a timber staircase, features forward port side helm with companion chair and an L-shape lounge behind, with a wet bar between.

Power for the Riviera 52 Enclosed Flybridge comes standard with Volvo Penta’s proven D11-IPS950 system with twin D11 turbo diesel engines and IPS20 pod-drives (2 x 533kW/725hp).

Belize 54 Daybridge
Riviera’s distinctive Belize 54 Daybridge is a classic design reflecting an age of tradition, individuality, and character.

A blend of classical design and state-of-the-art marine technology, the Belize 54 features a high-performance hull form that offers serious sea-keeping capability, proven to handle the tough Australian offshore conditions.

She offers three staterooms, including a full beam midships master suite, and two deluxe bathrooms.

The Belize 54 offers owners the choice of Volvo Penta D8-IPS800 system with twin D8 diesel engines and IPS15 pod-drives (2 x 447kW/600hp) or the Volvo Penta D11-IPS950 system with twin D11 engines and IPS20 pod-drives (2 x 533kW/725hp).

Rodney Longhurst said: “We are delighted to present two World Premieres at the 30th anniversary Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show.

"The 395 SUV is Riviera's much-awaited under-forty-foot model, offering a new-design open cockpit, two spacious staterooms, a large bathroom and an open and comfortable saloon with aft galley.

"Our World Premiere 72 Sports Motor Yacht is an extraordinary model representing the epitome of Riviera's innovation, style and superior technology that makes boating with Riviera just so effortless. Discerning owners can relish the exhilaration of sports performance with the luxurious comforts for which Riviera is renowned in our new Sports Motor Yacht collection."

Mr Longhurst said: “We are looking forward to welcoming Riviera and Belize owners and visitors to inspect the latest luxurious models of Riviera and Belize excellence at our stunning red-carpet, on-water showcase on F Pier at the Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show.”
