Just like at Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show this year, Riviera Electronics ran an HRO water maker and produced fresh drinking water straight from Darling Harbor. Riviera Electronics was the only company that produced fresh, clean drinking water for the entire 6 days of the show.

The unit being used was an HRO SEC-600 95lt / hour 24vdc system as used on the Riviera 56’ or 60’ boats. The unit ran from opening on Thursday to closing on Tuesday without missing a beat.

Below are a few stats from this unit during the boat show;
