Rhea

Rhea Marine have been building their ranges of traditionally styled craft since 1996 always with the aim of combining comfort and safety for pleasure fishing and cruising. Some models shown have now been discontinued - the 650, 900, 900 Open, 1100 and 1100 Trawler. New boats in the range are the Concept Open 23, 730 Fishing and the Trawler range. Information on these various models will appear on this website soon but in the meantime, please see Rhea's own website via Links or www.rhea-marine.com Latest news: Rhea will produce an electric engine version of their popular 850 - the 850 Electra. Details to follow

Founded in 1996, Rhéa Marine has established an excellent position for itself in the 'peche-promenade' or 'angling and cruising' market with its range of boats. All the hulls are designed by the naval architects, Joubert-Nivelt, to ensure a smooth ride through choppy seas, great stability and good handling with top speeds from 18 to 29 knots depending on the model and engine fitted.

All 'wheelhouse' versions (ie those not called 'Open') have a walkaround type deck layout, a very deep cockpit and long keel for easy beaching with or without beaching legs (if a twin engined model)..

They are intended to be multi-purpose as can be seen by the storage space in the spacious cockpit that doubles as seating, the engine casing that also serves as a table, and a fish well that can be used as a livebox.

In France they are known as 'the Rolls' of their class and seeing the care and attention to detail that goes into each one,
you'll understand why.

Recently Rhea have expanded their product range, launching two new lines, the Concept and Trawler. In the Concept range there are two boats, an Open 23 and a 730 Fishing. The Trawler range is what is says on the tin, starting at 36 feet.
