Built To Journey From A

European style effortlessly blends with American craftsmanship to create a watercraft possessing adrenaline-igniting power, uncompromising luxury, technology-driven convenience and security, and envy-inspiring design. We entrusted the construction of our first Revel Yachts model to the expert craftspersons at the Lyman-Morse facilities in Thomaston, Maine. Here, generations of knowledge in custom marine construction build yachts that people take notice of every time they enter the marina. The Revel 44S will be no exception. Every detail attended to with relentless devotion to quality and innovation. The result is a vessel that defies any current definition or comparison.

MEET THE 44S

The 44S is as customizable and durable as it is luxurious. The generous 13′ 4″ beam is shaped by a bombproof epoxy-infused, modified-vee hull. Providing stability without sacrificing performance. Starlink high-speed internet can give you control when and where you’re on the grid. Near infinite configurations and modularity in design allow you to create the fit for your Revel lifestyle.

Lyman-Morse is excited to have started production of hull #1 of the Revel 44S line. We have enjoyed collaborating with the Revel team on this truly innovative, performance yacht and look forward to building many more yachts with them into the future. Matthew Graham, Lyman-Morse, COO
I’ve been working on boats my entire life, and my goal with Revel Yachts was pretty simple—create the highest quality and most reliable boat that money can buy. Joshua St. Germain CEO and Founder, Revel Yachts
The running surfaces of the Revel 44S were designed to be "future-proof" when it comes to ever-increasing horsepower gains, utilizing our decades of experience designing offshore racing hulls and blue-water tournament fishermen. A particular focus is on comfort, by optimizing the hull form to dampen vertical accelerations to which the human body is most sensitive at high speeds. Bill Prince Bill Prince Yacht Design
Watching the Revel Team develop the Revel 44S has been one of the highlights of my career. The team's ability to collaborate with Industry experts, customers, vendors and each other to develop and launch the 44S resulted in a final product that is far superior to all competitors' offerings. We are excited to be working with America's premier builder on the crafting and launching the first 44S. Luis de Luzuriaga Revel Yachts, Board Chairman

Rebel 50G, the superyacht-like luxury Maxi Rib

  • Alessandro Giuzio
  • December 4, 2023

Making its debut at the Monaco Yacht Show 2023, Rebel 50G is the latest addition to the Sacs Tecnorib range and is destined to conquer the hearts of luxury Maxi Rib enthusiasts. The Principality’s showcase was the best chance to present this new jewel, since it is the reference event not only for superyachts , but also for large inflatables that are suitable for comfortable few-day cruises or for use as megayacht tenders. Precisely for this reason Sacs Tecnorib chose the wonderful setting of Port Hercule to exhibit, from 27 to 30 September, the flagship model of the Rebel range, designed by Christian Grande to overturn the rules of boating, combining the sportiness of Maxi Ribs with the elegance of yachts and giving birth to models with unprecedented, muscular yet sophisticated lines. Together with the Rebel 50G, the Rebel 47 and the new Strider 11 were also put on display.

Rebel 50G, the Maxi Rib for unforgettable adventures

Rebel 50G is the new model in the Rebel range, which Sacs Tecnorib has designed to trace a new footprint in the pursuit of life on board as the perfect meeting point with a sense of adventure. Just looking at this splendid Maxi Rib opens the imagination to the possibility of reaching unexplored bays in no time at all; doing the rest is the highly sophisticated design, reminiscent of mega-yachts in its details and materials.

REBEL 50

Rebel 50G features the typical stylistic features of the Sacs Tecnorib brand, but it is also an unconventional design, standing between the classic rib market and the open boat market, with a transition emphasized by the tapered foam profiles and enhanced by the side glazing. A key feature of this inflatable lies in fact in the two side windows flush with the hard-top , which define a hybrid deck space between cockpit and saloon. Moreover, a rear glass door is available as an option, in order to completely separate the interior and exterior and thus reconcile the usability of an open with the main advantages of a cruiser: comfort when underway and protection from adverse environmental conditions.

The exterior spaces of the Rebel 50G feature four different layouts, all characterized by a walkaround configuration and large spaces for improved conviviality. Below decks, on the other hand, two options are available, with one or two cabins, guaranteeing ample stowage space, excellent volumes and great privacy. Power comes from two Volvo Penta IPS 950 engines of 725 hp each which allow the Rebel 50G to reach a maximum speed and a cruising speed of 36 and 28 knots respectively.

Rebel 47 and Strider 11, the other two Ribs on display in Monaco

REBEL 47

As mentioned above, alongside the Rebel 50G, Sacs Tecnorib also exhibited the Rebel 47 and Strider 11 at the Monaco Yacht Show 2023. The former, redesigned by Christian Grande at the beginning of 2023 and presented at the last Düsseldorf Show, is a luxury day-cruiser with a modern design and smaller foam tubulars that make the exteriors more sinuous and elegant. The main deck offers a large dining area with a cocktail cabinet, sink, drawers, refrigerator, and dining table with teak flap, as well as a relaxation area with sofas and sundeck, while below deck there are two double cabins with a super queen-size bed, sofa, and bookshelves. Innovations include a carbon hard-top, a wider and more rounded front window that increases visibility from the helm station, a reduced beam to fit within the 4-metre width that is an advantage when docking in port and, finally, a new range of metallic paint finishes.

strider 11

The Strider 11 , on the other hand, is the new model in the iconic Strider series, available in two versions, Sun Deck and Open Back. The owner can choose the engine option that best suits his or her needs, the maximum speed is 47 knots and the capacity is 14 passengers. The Sun Deck version provides a full-beam sundeck in the aft area, while the Open Back version has a sofa for six. The telescopic central element can be lowered and the entire area can become a sundeck in turn. There are two berths (plus a further two optional ones in the Sun Deck version) and the interior, light and enveloping, is characterized by an elegant oak essence.

Rebel 50 G Yacht: A Fusion of Comfort and Style on Sea

rebel yachts

Per its namesake, the Rebel 50 G , represents its creator’s desire to rebel and create something new. Designer Christian Grande has offered us a special look at his upcoming 50-foot yacht from Sacs Technorib.

First, this creative journey takes us through a sweeping sundeck. The Rebel 50 G is alive with a “romantic soul” and an emphasis on leisure. Sweeping sliding glass doors on either side offer continuity between the ship and the sea. The open space provides the advantages of a cruising boat and comfort in bad weather.

rebel yachts

Creator Christian Grande said, “This model, as the name implies, rebels against the classic ideas that want inflatable boats and open boats as entities with distinct souls,” explains Christian Grande. “The identity of the rib remains, but on board, we have recreated the large spaces typical of boats. To do this, I worked on the volumes, ‘playing’ with key elements such as the generous tube, which allowed us to raise the topsides, stretching the overall mass, thus generating unusual habitability on a 50-footer, while maintaining the safety features in maneuvering and mooring that the tube ensures.”

There are two rooming configurations available. The first, called Living, features a single large cabin midship. The bow extends into a living room with a table, long sofas, and a bar.

The other configuration has two cabins; a master cabin in the bow with a double bed, and a VIP cabin in the middle of the ship. Two beds slide out electronically and can combine into one queen-sized bed.

The exterior curves and understated stingray color scheme, with undertones of orange and sparkling blues, impress a refined grey-blue hue across the Rebel 50 G.

Interiors and countertops are furnished with sustainable Ceppo di Gre marble. The outside features shiny materials with side hull glazing.

The Rebel 50 G is designed to impress an intimate group of guests. The cockpit sofas have seats as deep as 60cm, creating a sense of maximum comfort. Every inch of the Rebel 50 G redefines maximum comfort to create a home away from home. This home cruises at 28 knots with a top speed of 36 knots. Stay tuned with Jetset Magazine for more information closer to the Rebel 50 G’s release.

REBEL 50 G, The evolution of the species

rebel yachts

The latest 50-footer designed by Christian Grande breaks the mould, positioning itself between the classic rib market and the open boat market. With its characterising tapered foam profiles, the design is emphasised by side hull glazing, which gives it a distinctive and contemporary touch.

To rebel against the rules to create something that is unique and innovative-from this desire stems Rebel 50 G, the latest design by Christian Grande for the Italian shipyard Sacs Tecnorib.

“This model, as the name implies, rebels against the classic ideas that want inflatable boats and open boats as entities with distinct souls, ”explains Christian Grande. “The identity of the rib remains, but on board we have recreated the large spaces typical of boats. To do this, I worked on the volumes, ‘playing’ with key elements such as the generous tube, which allowed us to raise the topsides stretching the overall mass, thus generating an unusual habitability on a 50-footer, while maintaining the safety features in manoeuvring and mooring that the tube ensures.”

rebel yachts

Christian Grande created a special hull window, designed to light the interiors in a unique and unexpected way and make the Rebel 50 G different from the very first time you look at it. “It is a portion of glass that seems deliberately suspended, hinting at an enthralling floating sensation,” says Christian Grande.

The glass panel, which creates an enclosed and protected space, is what distinguishes this model from all others in the same range: the letter “G”, with its closed, collected, powerful yet softly curved shape, refers to the possibility of creating an enclosed space in perfect continuity with the outside environment. In addition to the two side windows, a sliding rear window can also be added to completely separate the interior from the exterior and combine the usability of an open space with the main advantages of a cruising boat, offering comfortable settings when sailing and protection in bad weather.

rebel yachts

“The Rebel 50 G is a revolutionary model, where the revolution also lies in the interpretation of the needs of a very demanding owner. An owner who wants to stand out, but at the same time wants to enjoy ample space onboard and comfortable solutions,” continues Christian Grande. “This is why all the furniture elements, even on the deck, have the proportions of home design items. The cockpit sofas, for example, have seats as deep as 60 centi-metres, just like you might find in your living room at home or on a maxi yacht.”

The walkaround configuration, which also provides great security when walking on board, and the large stern and bow sundecks further enhance the very convivial nature of this design. The bow offers a large sundeck and is characterised as the boat area with the most romantic soul, thanks to a corner with a chaise longue, ideal for admiring the view. “This area is meant to be an invitation to perceive sailing as a relaxed flight overwater,” comments Christian Grande.

rebel yachts

Relaxation and conviviality, always in areas with a design that aims to enhance the concept of comfort, is what we also find below deck, where ceiling heights exceed two metres. Christian Grande conceived two possible layouts, both with ample storage space, generous volumes and great privacy. The first configuration has two cabins: a master cabin in the bow (with a double bed) and a VIP cabin amidships, where two 90-centimetre wide bed scan electrically slide and be joined if necessary. The second layout ,called Living, offers a single large cabin amidships, while the bow is furnished as a comfortable and cosy living room with long sofas, a table and a bar cabinet. In both configurations, the dimensions of the bathroom, typical of much larger vessels, are a distinguishing feature.

The furnishings are made with Ceppo di Gre’ marble, a porous natural stone with a refined grey-blue hue that is unusual on a 50-footer. With this marble it was possible to create an elegant, unostentatious atmosphere, characterised by natural and not excessively shiny materials, with a strong physical presence that invites touching.

rebel yachts

“The Rebel 50 G is aware of its own being and expressiveness, with an almost zoomorphic body, with features that create muscular-looking surfaces and immediately give off a feeling of power, ”concludes the Italian designer. “Sculpted geometries that must be an expression of power and endurance. If I had opted for a more minimalist design, I would not have been able to communicate all this. But, at the same time, it is a graceful model that does not need aggressive colours to give itself character. Itis no coincidence that the first model has a brand new colour, called Stingray, which vibrates between grey and powdery tones.”

Live updates, israeli jets strike back at houthis in yemen after deadly tel aviv drone attack as all signs indicate deif is dead.

Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission.

Israeli fighter jets for the first time attacked Yemen Saturday, retaliating on the Houthi stronghold days after the Iran-backed group attacked the former U.S. Embassy in Tel Aviv, in a drone strike that killed one and wounded seven.

Saturday’s military operation targeted the western Yemen city of al-Hudaydah, The Times of Israel reported . The bombs destroyed fuel repositories and oil refineries.

The Israel Defense Forces confirmed the retributive strikes, saying it was a response to the hundreds of attacks the Houthis have aimed at Israel in recent months. The group has joined Iran in efforts to punish Israel for its war in Gaza.

a huge column of fire erupting following reported strikes in the Yemeni rebel-held port city of Hodeida opn July 20, 2024.

Earlier reports suggested that the US and UK had also sent jets as part of the mission, but the Times of Israel reported that Israeli jets alone carried out the strikes.

The retaliation came as some U.S. politicians, including Democratic Rep. Ritchie Torres, began calling on President Biden’s administration to reverse its February 2021 removal of the group from the Foreign Terrorist Organizations list.

Torres, in a letter to Secretary of State Antony Blinken, wrote that, in light of the Tel Aviv attack , “strongly” urged him “to consider relisting the Houthis as a Foreign Terrorist Organization.”

Meanwhile, Israeli military officials said there is “increasing” evidence last weekend’s major airstrike  on Gaza did in fact kill Mohammed Deif , the Hamas leader thought to have masterminded the Oct. 7 terror attacks on the Jewish state that triggered  the ongoing nine-month offensive .

Secretary of State Antony Blinken, wearing a dark suit and dark blue tie, speaks to the press in Washington.

“The signs are increasing as to the success of the elimination of Muhammad Deif,” said IDF Spokesman Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari, reports the Times of Israel .

Hagari said Hamas is concealing what happened to Deif July 13, when IDF forces dropped five 2,000-pound bombs in the al-Mawasi area, taking out Hamas commander Rafa’a Salameh.

The bombs destroyed fuel repositories and oil refineries.

Hagari claims Salameh and Deif “were next to each other at the time” of last week’s bombings, and confirmed Salameh was “definitely eliminated” in the attack.

Word of Deif’s likely demise came on the heels of IDF’s strikes Saturday on a building linked to a company that allegedly funds the terrorist group’s atrocities.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addresses a press conference in Tel Aviv on July 13.

The building, located in a designated humanitarian zone on the Gaza Strip, was bombed on Friday, the Times of Israel reported .

IDF said the business was used for safekeeping Hamas munitions and funneling money to the terrorists since the war’s start.

The IDF said this was a response to the hundreds of attacks the Houthis have aimed at Israel in recent months.

In other developments, Israeli bombings on Saturday claimed the lives of nearly 30 Palestinians while peace talks continue at a sluggish pace.

Blinken, however, said he believes a cease-fire agreement is imminent.

Protesters brandish rifles during a rally in Yemen's Houthi-controlled capital Sanaa.

“I believe we’re inside the 10-yard line and driving toward the goal line in getting an agreement that would produce a cease-fire, get the hostages home and put us on a better track to trying to build lasting peace and stability,” Blinken said on Friday, adding some lingering issues were still being ironed out.

In a related development, the U.S. Capitol Police said they are beefing up security throughout Washington, D.C., in preparation for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to Congress, set for Wednesday.

Police anticipate they’ll be dealing with large groups of protestors while Netanyahu is in the capitol.
