Positive inheritance.
by Ken Kreisler
With her DNA traceable to Riviera’s heritage of building horizon-chasing, blue-water, big-shouldered sportfishing machines, the Belize 54 Daybridge has inherited the best of what this Down Under manufacturer has to offer.

“Belize motoryachts celebrate classic design with bespoke finishes and details while embracing superior technology to offer a heightened level of operational ease and efficiency,” says Rodney Longhurst, owner of Riviera Australia.
To that end she offers a full-beam master, spacious queen centerline forepeak VIP berth and, to starboard, a twin bed third stateroom. There are two heads, and all living areas have more than enough storage and closet space. The luxurious salon displays fine craftsmanship with noticeable attention paid to the fit and finish of the woodwork, the comfortable seating areas and full galley to port, the large windows all around and the centerline helm forward.
The aft deck is a fully shaded area thanks to the flybridge overhang where owners and their guests will enjoy alfresco dining anytime of the day or evening. Other features aft include a boarding gate from the hydraulically operated lift platform, access to the large tender garage, and an electric barbecue, icemaker and sink all located above the tender garage.
The spacious daybridge, accessed from the aft deck or from the salon, offers a Bimini top, a centerline helm, an L-shape couch to port, a wetbar to starboard and, of course, spectacular views. Rounding out her outdoor features is a large sunpad on the bow.
Utilizing state-of-the art technologies, surrounded by teak decking underfoot and powered by a pair of Volvo Penta 600-hp D8 IPS 800 or the optional 725-hp D11 IPS 950 diesel engines, the well-constructed Belize 54 Daybridge is sure to please any owner.
