"I’ve wanted a Riviera for 20 years and I looked at the money I had available and thought I could buy a 20 year old second-hand boat, or I could buy a state-of-the-art brand new Riviera with all the technology and the luxury that it comes with, and for me it was a no brainer."
Boating Partnerships offers a luxurious, hassle-free walk-on, walk-off co-ownership experience on Riviera Motor yachts.

Key Design Features
"Despite it being a syndicated boat, Boating Partnerships has helped ensure we have a real sense of 'ownership' of our pride and joy. The BP team are friendly and professional, and we like that they ensure that like-minded owners are selected for each vessel. The boat is impeccably looked after, and we love the walk-on-walk-off service that BP provides."
"After researching boating syndicators for over a year, I'm glad that I went with Tom and the team at Boating Partnerships; they made boat ownership effortless. The structure is clever, transparent, and incredibly well managed. It allowed me to enjoy all the upside of boating without the additional stress or investment of my precious time."
"The syndicated Boating Partnerships structure gives us the ability to enjoy the waters around Sydney on a modern, extremely well-appointed boat and without the hassles and responsibilities of directly owning your own boat. Through the use of the online booking tool, bookings have been made very easy and it is clear when the boat is available."
"Having a boat currently in build has been a very enjoyable experience. I have been given the opportunity to not only observe the build but have input in deciding on options such as the Gyro and water maker. I believe these options were essential for use as well as adding to the resale value."
"We’ve been with Boating Partnerships now for about 2 years in a Riviera 4800 Sport Yacht, and we haven’t looked back… it has been fantastic. Having this boat has allowed family time with our children. It means time together, time on the water. Boating Partnerships basically helps us ensure that whenever we come out on our boat it feels like a holiday."
"Having never owned a boat before, the training Boating Partnerships provided has enabled me to feel confident in my skills and abilities in all areas of using my boat. The key factor that helped me cross the line in owning a boat with Boating Partnerships was Tom and his team, as well as the longevity of their experience."
