Riviera was founded in 1981 by Bill Barry-Cotter, a name well known in Australian offshore racing boat circles. By 1985, Riviera had grown to become the largest builder of production boats in Australia. In 2009, Riviera filed bankruptcy due to recession but resumed back in 2010. In 2012, Riviera was purchased by Longhurst Holding, an Australian investment company.
