UPDATE: AUGUST 2023: BRAND NEW FLYBRIDGE CLEARS.
The Riviera 38 Mk II - a powerful example of evolution at work that was rewarded with a Boat of the Year award in 1987. The Gold Coast boat builders took advantage of new technologies to constantly improve the original Mark I. Then, in 1986, they undertook a total redesign to take the marque to a new level of sophistication and visual appeal. The Mark II was instantly discernible from her predecessor by the sheer, sweeping in a graceful arc from the bow to the aft end of the coach house. The flybridge was extended, with a lower profile and a hardtop. Inside, the refinement continued. The accolades were immediate as luxury boating enthusiasts embraced the new look. The industry, too, acknowledged the new model as Australia's Boating Industry Association crowned her Boat of the Year in 1987.
The Riviera 38 Mark II would go on to even greater success than her predecessor, remaining in production for seven years and achieving sales of 93 boats, more than any model before her.
The current owner of this Mk II Bluewater is a diesel mechanic and as such he has maintained the mechanical side of her. The interior is in good condition. The exterior requires some love to get her back to top condition. Have a look through the photos and information below and call us to book a viewing.
A survey from March 2022 is available for serious enquiries.
