2000 44' Rybovich Express - REBEL

REBEL is a unique opportunity to own a masterpiece built by Michael Rybovich as Hull #118 and under Ryco Marine.

REBEL has received constant upgrading from her knowledgeable, caring owners over the years. Most recently, a major refit was completed in 2022/2023 by her current owner which included a full engine room makeover to the highest level. New MAN I6-800 engines, new ZF transmissions, Spot Zero system, ElectroSea Clear Line System, new compressors, every system and/or pump either replaced or gone through. This is only a fraction of the upgrade list completed by her current owner and this listing sheet truly does not do her justice.

REBEL is in a league of her own with regards to build quality and condition. Her paint and bright work are in beautiful condition and she now cruises 30 knots at 1,850 RPM’s with her updated power.

REBEL is a truly Must-See for anyone looking for a high-pedigree custom boat in mint condition. Her attention to detail throughout is incredible and must be seen firsthand to truly appreciate.

Easy to view in North Palm Beach, FL.
