The Riviera Belize 52 Sedan is a 52-foot sports cruiser yacht that was produced by the iconic Australian yacht builder Riviera between 2012 and 2017. A sophisticated classic-contemporary form features the clean lines, soft curves and handsome livery styles best associated with the golden age of mid-century yachting, but with a modern flair, a contemporary twist, and the very latest in seakeeping. Covered with a wrap-around hard-top, boasting dynamic side glazing, and with plenty of space to spread out and relax, this vessel remains one of the finest family-sized yachts on the market today.
Spread out and enjoy life on the foredeck, where a double-width sunpad with adjustable backrests offers the chance to work on your summer tan. Broad, teak-lined side-decks lead all the way back to a sheltered aft-cockpit with a luxurious transom sofa, a timber and steel dining table, a wet-bar with a grill and a set of bar stools that connect to the main deck aft-galley when the windows are retracted and the sliding glass doors are flung wide open to create one breezy living space. Side steps lead down to a full-beam bathing platform that will be enjoyed by keen saltwater swimmers, while a vast transom garage down here opens up to reveal storage for a Williams or equivalent jet-tender.
The salon impresses with a genuine teak sole, cabinets lined in American walnut, steel fixtures throughout, wide side windows, two glazed roof panels overhead and an above-helm retractable sunroof with four mullioned glass strips. To aft there is an open kitchen with Corian countertops, a three-zone cooktop, a Miele combination oven, ample Vitrifrigo refrigeration, an optional ice-chipper, a sink and an extractor fan. Further forward there is a sprawling L-shaped sofa in your choice of plush piped upholstery or leather that surrounds an extending dining table, with crockery, glass and plate storage hidden underneath. Up front a retro-style dashboard boasts a timber pulpit and power-assisted wheel, along with a pair of Garmin touch-screens, Precision Pilot autopilot, Skyhook software, Zeus joystick handling, Interceptor trim switches, VHF radio and a high-speed mounted compass.
Head down to the lower deck and enjoy nights at sea across a trio of lavish staterooms for up to six guests. A bunk cabin to starboard is joined by a VIP double stateroom to the bow with a trio of skylights, and both share the same timber-lined bathroom with a waterfall shower room. An amidship master stateroom with full-beam dimensions and horizontal hull glazing features a queen-sized bed, a side sofa, leather wall panels, cedar-lined lockers and a spa-like en-suite with a walk-in shower and marbled work surfaces.
Powered by a pair of 600HP Cummins QSC diesels attached to Zeus pods, this stylish watercraft can reach top speeds of approximately 30 knots, while at cruising speed of 22 knots you will enjoy an astonishing range of up to 400 nautical miles. A moderate-V hull with a warped plane, a fine entry, double chines and an 11-degree transom deadrise offers a smooth ride over coastal waters.
