Brilliant, beautiful and bespoke, the Belize 66 Daybridge by Riviera Yachts will have her World Premiere at the 2019 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show (FLIBS), October 30 - November 3.

The unveiling of the new 4800 Sport Yacht Series II-Platinum Edition, 5400 Sport Yacht Platinum Edition, 6000 Sport Yacht Platinum Edition, along with the introduction of the new 545 SUV, will be a major highlight at the Riviera display.
“Visitors to Fort Lauderdale will be very impressed this year,” said Riviera Australia owner Rodney Longhurst. “The display is not only our largest, it will comprehensively highlight the ongoing advancement of our model development, while also showcasing our latest styling.”
SYS Yacht Sales’ Riviera specialists, Jason Mashke and Alex Rowe, are privileged to represent this renowned Australian line on the Gulf Coast of Florida. “Riviera and Belize yachts exemplify the impeccable taste of true yachting enthusiasts. Each model incorporates designs that are not only elegant, but also practical and stand the test of time. Gimmicks in the yacht industry come and go and often do not add value to a particular yacht. This isn’t the case with with Riviera and Belize. These vessels are built for adventure with superb quality in both construction and in their luxurious appointments,” said Jason.

Many can design a yacht that looks beautiful, but only a few can design a yacht that has it all! I relish the opportunity to represent Riviera and Belize on the Gulf Coast of Florida, as it is an honor to work with a level of quality beyond compare, “ he added.
