Riviera’s display at the recent SCIBS draws Riviera owners from around the globe.
Australia’s premium luxury motor yacht builder, Riviera, has accomplished an inspiring display at the 2023 SCIBS drawing Riviera owners from around Australia, New Zealand, Europe, Asia, the Pacific Islands and the Americas. With a record number of visitors this year, the Riviera showcase of Australian-designed and built yachts included select models from 39 to 78 feet across the Sports Motor Yacht, SUV, Sport Yacht and Motor Yacht collections, and featured the world premiere of the 585 SUV and the announcement of the new 58 Sports Motor Yacht.
The Riviera showcase was the Boat Show’s largest display and valued at more than $30 million. Riviera Australia owner Rodney Longhurst said “The Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show was a wonderful opportunity to exhibit 11-luxury yachts from our magnificent fleet while celebrating our global family of Riviera owners. We are humbled at the record number of visitors to our display and the excitement they expressed as they experienced Riviera today.
Running concurrently with the Boat Show, the exclusive Riviera owners Festival of Boating was exceptional with fully subscribed seminars and social events including educational workshops, the Women of Riviera Luncheon, the Galley Master’s Lunch with celebrity chef Sally Jenyns, and the stunning Grand Table Candlelight Dinners held over three consecutive nights along the entire length of the Riviera display.
The star of the show, the 585 SUV, was met with great praise and admiration from Boat Show visitors and will enjoy her Americas premiere in the latter part of 2023 at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, from 25th – 29th October. The newly announced 58 Sports Motor Yacht will have her premiere at the 2024 Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show.
Stephen Milne, Riviera’s Brand & Communications Director, said it was a tremendous show for Riviera. “It has been wonderful to host Riviera’s Festival of Boating with our extensive boating education program for over 300 Riviera owners and of course, our exclusive signature events. “Our Grand Table Candlelight Dinners for 180 people each night were elegant and wonderful evenings and a highlight of the showcase this year. The 2023 Boat Show certainly created a memorable opportunity to bring the Riviera family together,” Stephen said.
