Rhino Marine boats has a brand new website

Rhino craft have launched their brand new website, come and have a look:

http://www.rhinomarineboats.com

We are now finally showcasing our new models online, See for example the Rhino 800 HD.

We went out for a sea trial a few weeks ago. Great manoeuvrability, dry, plenty of space...

You would have loved it!

This blog will slowly be phased-out as the new website has it's own blog component.

All information will come under a same roof. Isn't it great?

Thank you for your support and don't hesitate to Contact us if you have any questions or if you

want one of our Robust, Rigid and Reliable Rhino craft.

They are far more than an RIB!

Introducing the new Rhino 670

Let us introduce you one of our latest addition to the Rhino Craft family: The Rhino 670.
This is a 6,7m long craft built to receive one or two outboards.
With a kinked-up bow, she has been designed to feel comfortable at sea as well as on rivers.
Our first craft of this kind has been out at sea already.
See some pictures below.
She is powered by twin Yamaha 130 hp outboards and has a top speed is 35 knot and she behaves wonderfully well.
The 6.7m boat is normally fitted with an up-stand gunnel but this boat does not have one so that it can be used as a diving boat where scuba divers can "roll out" backwards with ease.  The up-stand gunnel can easily be added if required.



This craft is as new as she has only been used to do some demos to the SA navy.
She can be yours in no time and at a very competitive price...
Please call us if you are interested.




The Rhino 590 EHD nr 35 to 37 are immediately available @ a special price!

We have three Rhino 590 EHD - numbers 35 to 37 -  immediately available.

Special price on the three stock boats:  
€ 20,000.00 per unit instead of € 25,500.00
or € 53,550.00 for the three together.


The Rhino 590 EHD is currently our best-seller and is a real heavy duty work machine.

The Rhino 900 - Military Patrol Boat - a work in progress! / Le Rhino 900 - Bateau de patrouille militaire - un travail en cours!

Our prototype of the Rhino 900 Military Patrol Boat is taking shape.
Notre prototype du Rhino 900 - bateau de patrouille militaire - prend forme.

The hull is near completion and, after fitting of the two jet intakes, we will turn the boat over ready for installation of the deck and top structure.
See the pictures below taken at various steps of the process.
Frames were clamped into position using our custom built jig, after which the stringers were installed.

La coque est quasi terminée et , après assemblage des entrées pour les deux jets, nous allons tourner le bateau pour installation du pont et de la superstructure.
Voyez ci-dessous, les photos prises lors des différentes étapes de l'assemblage.
Les trames ont été serrées en position à l'aide de notre gabarit fait sur ​​mesure, après quoi les longerons ont été installés.




Then the hull and chines have been installed.
Ensuite la coque et les bouchains...

 And finally the jet intakes are being fitted.
Et finalement les prises d'eau des jets sont positionnées.



Next step: the turn-over.
Stay in touch, it's becoming an exiting time.

Etape suivante: le retournement.
Restez en contact, cela devient excitant.

Wale Marine and Rhino Marine are designing a militarised Rhino 900 on request of the Brazilian marine...

Propelled by twin mid-mounted 440Hp Yanmar engines with Ultrajet 305 jet drives,  our new militarized craft will cruise at an estimated speed of 35 to 40 knots.
With our rigid pontoons filled with polystyrene, the craft will not be stopped by bullets and will be almost unsinkable.
So,... Pirates and smugglers beware!
 Robust bow step for fast boarding

Three machine guns stands astern and two on the bow.
Plenty of deck space for the intervention commando.
Hull designed for fast and dry sailing.
