New for 2023 MarineServices.ie is proud to be moving with the future with the addition of RS Electric RIBs to our stable. RS Electric Boats has announced that the new iteration of the Pulse 63, featuring a RAD40 (electric propulsion system) and increased battery capacity from 46kWh to 63kWh, will be on the market from August 2023.
RS Electric Boats has announced a new iteration of the Pulse 63, featuring a RAD40
RS Electric Boats has calculated that the integral RAD40 offers 45 per cent more efficiency than the previous configuration, which was already a significant leap in terms of electric RIBs. The Pulse 63 will have even more speed and range than it previously enjoyed.
Further to this, the new set-up means the Pulse 63 will enjoy extreme manoeuvrability. This is because the RAD40 head unit stays still and only the bottom of its leg swivels. As a result, the propeller can turn 90 degrees in each direction, offering a fantastic 180 degrees – allowing the Pulse to spin in its own length.
Vanguard RIBs
As part of our agreement with Selva, we are also suppliers of Vanguard RIBs, or particular interest to clubs would be the Pro Work line. We have supplied various Vanguard packages from the smaller 450 Pro Work above to the Pro Work 850 in passenger boat format with over 200 horsepower!
As always, it is best to contact [email protected] for a quote or to discuss your exact requirements.
Whatever it is your club or training centre requires, we can supply it for you!

MarineServices.ie Appointed as Official Dealer of Sailmon
MarineServices.ie is pleased to announce to be an official dealer of Sailmon. Sailmon is a Dutch-based soft- & hardware developer for the marine industry. They are known for their world-class displays, high-performance processors and innovative cloud solutions for sailing analysis.
Sailmon uses technology to create a new sailing experience. MarineServices.ie will focus on distributing MAX, their newest innovation.
Sail higher, faster and hit the right end of the line
Traditionally dinghy and sport boat sailing has all been about feel. MAX makes guesswork a thing of the past. It features a built-in, fast GPS and advanced 9-axis compass which generates the most accurate sailing data. Keep an eye on data such as heading, speed, heel and pitch, wind, and course over ground to sail higher and faster. In addition, MAX contains a ping function, countdown timer, distance to line, and time to start functionality.
MAX makes guesswork a thing of the past
By connecting the Bluetooth, solar-powered, wind sensor, you can receive instant and accurate apparent and true wind readings.
All data is presented on a clear transflective LCD display with anti-reflective front glass for maximum viewability. Powered by a lithium-polymer battery for all day use with waterproof charging.
Relive your trip with the Sailmon app
In addition to the technological and practical solution, MAX is the first sailing instrument with an accompanying app. The Sailmon app can be used to provide insight into, save or review data from training or competitions. The results of every trip are visualised in the app on a clear timeline and map, which you can also compare with your training partners and competitors. All functionalities of the Sailmon app helps you to improve your sailing.
About Sailmon
In addition to wind and water, Sailmon is a new element that makes sailing more fun and challenging. For everybody. From our founder and three-time Olympic sailor Kalle Coster to beginning sailors. From adventurers, racers and explorers to recreational sailors.
The Dutch company uses their technology to revolutionize sailing, making it even more challenging. Sailmon develops hardware and software, but is most proud of creating a new sailing experience, new ways to push the limits. They believe that capturing and sharing your performance makes you a better sailor. Nobody gets inspired by untold stories. No one gets challenged by unrecorded performances.
If you love sailing as much as they do, you use everything to maximize the experience. So feel the wind, get on the water and ‘’sail with us’’.

Irish RS Aero Fleet Continues to Build
MarineServices.ie the agent for RS Sailboats is delighted to announce the sale of a further four new RS Aeros into the class in Ireland.
The single-handed class has enjoyed a buoyant growth in the last year with many turning to the class due to superior ergonomics and a modern take on a performance dinghy.
With over 20 active boats in the Dublin area alone, the class is the largest PY class in the Dublin Bay Sailing Club summer racing series. Hopefully, as these numbers grow, the RS Aero will likely deserve its own start in the DMYC Frostbite series and Dublin Bay Series next year.
The Aero fleet is heading North to Carrickfergus on the 13th and 14th of August to meet up with a significant fleet that has also grown quickly in the North of Ireland, particularly in Ballyholme. Hammy Baker the recent winner of the RS Easterns in the Royal St George will be actively defending his recent win.
The fleet has a very healthy gender balance with many female sailors turning to the boat as it is significantly lighter and therefore easier to handle both ashore and afloat than other popular singlehanded dinghies.
