Modular design for Containerization

As we are based in Cape Town, South Africa, and our main market is in Africa, we have designed all our boats to be easily transported in modular form, to be assembled on site.

Our boats will fit in either a 20ft or 40ft container, depending on the size ordered, and accesssories chosen.  Alternatively they can be transported on a flat-bed truck.

A Carrying Capacity to suit your Application

Our modular design means that we can offer you a wide range of craft, depending on your requirements.

Our smaller craft have a carrying capacity of 1000 kgs whilst our larger pontoons boats can carry an amazing 5400 kgs.

This coupled with the ultimate availability of usable space, gives you one of the most versatile work or leisure platforms available.

.

Production

As all our craft are custom built to customer requirements, we do not keep stock boats.

We do, whowever, keep a certain amount of components in stock to keep the manufactucturing and production delays to a minimum.



Outboards

We can supply our boats with a wide range of outboards, from tiller handle 15Hp to console controlled twin installation outboards and jets.

All our River-Cruizers have an option of single or dual outboard instalations, ranging from :

  • small single 2stroke and 4stroke outboards (from 10 to 25 Hp per motor)
  • medium sized single and twin installation (from 30 to 90 Hp per motor)
  • specialized outboard packages such as DIESEL outboards or JET outboards





Material's Used in Construction

All our framework, along with our deck frame and pontoons, are manufactured from high grade aluminium, to ensure that your boat will resist corrosion and sun damage.

Our railing is all aluminium, as is the framework for the roof, wether it be a retractable or fixed roof.




On-Site Assembly

All our pontoon boats are assembled in the factory, then dissassembled for transportation.

We offer, at minimal cost, a service whereby we send one of our staff to supervise and help to assemble the craft on-site.

River-Cruizer Pontoon Boats
Water-taxis, Freight carriers, Booze-cruises, Fishing platforms, Barges, House-boats.

With your pontoon boat, you can go sightseeing, fishing, swimming, have a party or a braai, ride on rivers and lakes and, best of all, the basic platform allows you to customize it to your specifications.

Pontoon boats are very safe and stable and unlike traditional boats, pontoon boats have a large flat floor which allows for safe movement. These boats are light, economical and sturdy. With their shallow draught they can beach almost anywhere, and are much easier to board, even for the elderly or disabled.

For sightseeing they can be fitted with variety of seating arrangements, from traditional seats to back-to-back benches. Shade canopies are optional and can be solid or removable.

As fishing boats they make a stable platform, eliminating having to make the kids (or yourself) sit the whole time on the water. When the fishing is done there is enough space to stretch out, cook your fish or catch a tan.

Landing Craft
In the days of sail, the ship's boats were used as landing craft. These rowing boats were sufficient, if inefficient.

The British produced a landing craft in 1920 that could put their then-current medium tank directly onto a beach. From 1924 it was used with landing boats in annual exercises in amphibious landings.

We at Rho-Marine have taken it to the next level and introduced Landing Craft's to the general public.
