Leader of the pack.

In recent years, the desire for luxury RIB models has exploded, with bigger, faster and more comfortable models hitting the water every year.

Leading the pack, Italian RIB builder SACS has created the 2025 Rebel 50 G — the newest addition to its growing line of luxurious maxi RIBs.
Currently, Great Lakes’ Jefferson Beach Yacht Sales is the only U.S. dealer for SACS and the first to offer the 2025 Rebel 50 G to the American market.
Instead of inflatable tubes, the Rebel 50 G features SACS’s D-Fender technology. The D-shaped antishock design creates a full-length, foam-filled Hypalon fender system that keeps the hull protected from impact with docks and other boats.
The 2025 SACS 50 G’s elegant, sporty style and unique hull design immediately set it apart from any boat on the water. A sleek hardtop with electrically retractable windows protects the helm and salon, where plenty of seating, a pop-up TV and a galley complete with a sink, stove and refrigerator comfortably accommodate guests.
Below, the forward queen-size main and midship guest cabins are truly beautiful, with light colors, plenty of space and huge hullside windows that let in lots of light. With the touch of a button, the twin guest cabin bunks can be combined into a single full-size berth.
The long list of standard features on the 2025 SACS Rebel 50 G includes an anchor windlass, retractable mooring cleats, forward and aft seating and sunpads, as well as joystick docking controls.
Powered by Volvo’s IPS pod drive systems, the 2025 SACS Rebel 50 G is fast and agile, with cruising speeds around 32 mph and a top-end speed that climbs over 40 mph. Equally suited for use as a cruiser, dayboat or superyacht tender, the Rebel 50 G combines the benefits of a fiberglass hull with the best features of a RIB.
