INTRODUCTION
Mare R30M is a rigid inflatable motor boat with open design and an inflatable collar, i.e.
tube. Good buoyancy and an elastic board make the boat a practically unsinkable mobile
water craft which is well suitable for various purposes and circumstances. The purpose-
designed silhouette of the hull and the high-quality manufacturing are backed by teamwork
and experience in fibreglass plastic technology. The full-laminate plastic body of variable
thickness is made of polyester resin reinforced with E-glass layers, using the hand lay-up
technology. The gel-coat outer surfaces on modified isoftal polyester provide the boat with
long-lasting resistance to weather conditions and also low water absorption. The boat shell
with a bottom in original trimaran design is filled with TRIPOR 227 closed-cell two-
component rigid-cured foam of low specific gravity. The transom with special honeycomb
panel reinforcement has a place for an outboard motor with a normal shaft.
The floater tube running around the boat is made of VALMEX® high-quality material tested
for air- and watertight properties and resistant to mechanic loads, liquids, oils, UV radiation
and temperature extremes. The load elements of the tube construction are provided with
redundancy by internal and external reinforcements. The boards have holders for oars and
there are handles in the bow and stern of the boat for attaching tug lines and mooring lines;
the handles can also be used for carrying the boat. The three-compartment floater tube has
been tested according to valid standards and has valves, sturdy fender profile and hand rails.
The tube is integrated to the rigid shell with a uniform tape adhesive system which ensures
the reliability of the floater in marine conditions. The portable seats can be readjusted to
operate the boat comfortably with one to four people on board. The boat is eager to plane,
well manoeuvrable and firmly under control even at high speed turns. The lightweight
construction combined with excellent hydrodynamic performance also result in low fuel
consumption.
The construction and manufacture of Mare R30M conforms to the standard ISO 6185-2
Inflatable boats (including rigid inflatable boats) with a maximum total length of less than 8
metres, a minimum buoyancy of 1,800 N and a maximum motor power rating 4.5 to 15 kW
inclusive, and to the EU Directives 94/25 and 2003/44 regarding hobby water crafts.
The Mareplast RIB boats are manufactured in several versions with manual and remote
control (from the pulpit).
MOTOR
The default motor is Honda 9.9HP MODEL# BF10DKSH standard series, weighing 42 kg,
with manual control and starter, fuel – gasoline, cooling – seawater, mounted on 381 mm
transom. When using a motor of own choice, the boat manufacturer’s recommended power
limitations and motor weights must be respected (see the manufacturer’s plate); the motor
must also have CE marking. The operating manual of the motor must be read carefully.
CONTROL
Mare R30M does not require the qualification of a skipper for recreational craft.
Still, sufficient marine experience with all weather conditions is a must.
Also, good marine practices must be respected at all times:
Before leaving the shore, make sure that the weather forecast and current weather conditions
are favourable, that you are familiar with the specifics of the locale, and that the boat and its
accessories are in good state;
Select the clothing appropriate for the weather, and footwear appropriate for operating a
boat;
4
Explain the onboard rules and required behaviour and the potential risks of a marine trip to
all those accompanying you;
Avoid overloading the boat; leave everything unnecessary on the shore;
A functioning life jacket must be worn at all times when the boat is in operation;
People and items must be placed so that the overall centre of gravity is balanced in the boat,
and as low as possible;
The motor must not be started if it’s not in neutral;
Be careful while in the boat, especially when moving;
Manoeuvre the boat smoothly and choose the speed according to the conditions; sharp turns
may cause the boat to heel dangerously and it may lose control;
Avoid the winds and waves of high seas;
Keep the boat empty of water;
When landing, avoid hitting the shore with the bow or board of the boat and braking the boat
with a hand or a foot;
Keep the marine environment clean;
Never use the boat when intoxicated with alcohol or drugs;
Keep in mind that the skipper bears sole responsibility for everyone.
MAINTENANCE
This boat is relatively easily to maintain, but it must be done regularly.
Keep the boat clean inside and out. Wash the bottom of the boat from time to time. A soiled
and overgrown bottom limits the speed of the boat and increase the fuel consumption.
Clean the boat surfaces with freshwater and, if necessary, ordinary cleaning agents free of
abrasive substances. Never use acetone, nitro solvents or metal tools for cleaning the boat.
Avoid scratching the boat. For this, handle the boat with care when launching and in
everyday operation. Tie all anchoring and mooring lines in a reliable and durable manner.
Scratches, cracks and splits in the plastic surface will reduce the life expectancy of the boat,
so these should be repaired as soon as possible.
You can turn to the manufacturer of the boat for major repairs.
Make sure the warning signs on the boat are preserved and legible.
When leaving, take along all loose items and lock down the boat.
When storing the boat on shore, choose the supporting surfaces so that the boat will not
become deformed. Open the drain to remove all water.
When transporting, fasten the boat carefully to the trailer or truck. The fasteners must not
abrade against the boat, stretch loose during the journey or open by themselves. Fasten down
all loose items in the boat. The motor must be fixed to the transport position on the transom
while transporting the boat.
When towing the boat, do not exceed the normal operating speed of the boat.
For placing the boat into winter storage, clean and wash the boat inside and out, choose a
suitable slipway, boat shed or shelter, and store the boat on even keel, in a uniformly
supported position excluding any crushing, or bottom-up.
Cover the boat with an opaque tarpaulin or plastic foil.
Water must not collect into the boat.
EMERGENCIES
Respect the rules of fire safety.
In case of a smell of gasoline in the boat, check the fuel line and valves.
Do not smoke when refuelling.
Keep flammable materials in a separate box.
In case of a localised fire, use a handheld extinguisher.
Turn the boat against the wind.
In case of uncontrollable fire, give emergency signals.
5
Swim to a safe distance from the boat.
The boat can still be operated, if one compartment of the floater tube fails.
Turn off the motor if there are swimmers in water nearby, and also before letting a water
skier into water! Don’t leave the motor running on idle either! Familiarise yourself with the
water skiing regulations.
“Man over board!” Act decisively and fast; throw a life jacket in the direction of the person
in the water. Assign someone to monitor the one who is overboard. Turn the boat and
approach the person in the water with the leeward board where the waves are lower, then
pull the person into the boat.
Practice the techniques of saving an overboard person.
