Riviera has expanded its Belize lineup with the introduction of the new Belize 55 Sedan and Daybridge, both scheduled to make their world premiere at the Newport International Boat Show in September 2026.

The new 55-foot models continue the Belize brand’s blend of classic Downeast-inspired styling and modern cruising amenities. Built on a hull designed specifically for Volvo Penta IPS propulsion, the yachts are powered by twin Volvo Penta D11 IPS 950 engines and feature joystick maneuvering, along with a fine-entry hull, keel-assisted tracking and pronounced bow chines intended to deliver a soft, confident ride.

The cockpit and salon are connected on a single level to create an open entertaining space, while a hydraulic swim platform, watersports garage and integrated barbecue are designed to enhance time at anchor. Owners opting for the Daybridge model gain an additional upper-level lounge, wet bar and helm station. Belowdecks, both versions offer a three-stateroom, two-head layout centered around a full-beam master suite.

The Belize 55 also incorporates onboard technology including Sentinel monitoring, camera systems, Starlink connectivity and optional stabilization for extended cruising.
