SYDNEY BOAT SHOW: Riviera's multiple releases

Riviera will stage multiple new model releases, including the world release of the new 50 Enclosed Flybridge and local release of the new 565 SUV, at the upcoming 2013 Sydney International Boat Show from August 1 to 5.

Riviera says the new 50 Enclosed Flybridge is bristling with innovation from the most modern technology to time-honoured craftsmanship. The new model will take centre stage at Riviera’s floating display, which will showcase eight models including the new 50 Enclosed Flybridge, 445 and 565 SUVs, 5000 Sport Yacht, 5800 Sport Yacht, 43 Open Flybridge, 53 Enclosed Flybridge, and the new Belize 52 Daybridge.

Riviera chairman and owner Rodney Longhurst said the interest in the new 50 Enclosed Flybridge had been fantastic.

"In May we showcased an interior display of the new 50 Enclosed Flybridge at the Riviera Festival of Boating and we were extremely pleased with the positive feedback from Riviera owners and luxury powerboat enthusiasts. We are delighted by the number of advanced orders for the new 50," Mr Longhurst said.

In an innovative move that puts the company closer to the automotive world, Riviera’s director of brand and communications Stephen Milne said Riviera was also offering an exclusive Volvo Penta package at the Sydney Boat Show.

"Riviera has teamed up with Volvo Penta and is offering three years of free engine and pod-drive servicing to all new boats contracted during the 2013 Sydney International Boat Show," Mr Milne said.

"This is a wonderful opportunity for our new Riviera owners to enjoy three years of free engine and pod drive servicing," he added.

The Riviera display will be located on the southern end of the Cockle Bay Marina, Darling Harbour from August 1 to 5.
