A revolution in mooring safety
REVBO BY BOWMASTER
The REVBO range from Bowmaster represents a breakthrough in bollard design, transforming how boats handle mooring lines.
The world’s first rotating bollard, allows crews to safely ease and tension mooring lines without removing the bollard.
Engineered to enhance safety and ease of use, these advanced bollards are especially beneficial for smaller or less experienced crews, simplifying line handling and reducing the risk of accidents. Adhering to the latest IMO safety standards, REVBO bollards offer a compact footprint, reducing deck clutter while maximising the active line engagement area for improved performance.
Available in both polished stainless steel and composite materials, providing substantial weight savings, ideal for high-performance yachting.
All bollards in the range are patent pending and registered design.
The REVBO Range
REVBO 1: FIXED BOLLARD WELDED OR BOLTED TO DECK
The Model 1 REVBO is a revolutionary bollard designed to be either welded or bolted to the deck, offering a smaller footprint compared to traditional bollards. It features a stylish new look and is made from either carbon fibre or polished stainless steel, ensuring both durability and aesthetic appeal. The bollard provides a higher safe working load, enhanced safety caps, and is engineered for simple, safe use by the crew.
REVBO 2: ROTATING BOLLARD
The Model 2 REVBO is a powered rotating bollard designed with a smaller deck footprint and constructed from high-tensile stainless steel or composite for exceptional strength and durability. It features a variable height central bridge, allowing it to function as a fixed figure-eight bollard, which can then be wound down onto the base of the bollard for versatility and efficient mooring solutions.
REVBO 3: FIXED AND RETRACTING WITH FLUSH CAP
The Model 3 REVBO is a fixed and retracting bollard with a flush cap that retracts seamlessly to deck level, offering a clean, hidden look. It features either gas strut or powered retraction and is available in high-strength stainless steel or composite/titanium materials. The bollard includes a removable cap that can be matched to the deck type, such as teak, for a completely integrated appearance.
REVBO 4: ROTATING AND RETRACTING
The Model 4 REVBO is a rotating and retracting bollard that offers exceptional versatility for docking. It can tension dock lines during docking, and when not in use, it retracts to flush deck level for a clean and seamless appearance. Retraction is achieved through either a gas strut or powered mechanism, allowing for smooth operation. The bollard makes it easy to tension or ease dock lines as needed, while its lid can be customised to match the deck type, such as teak, for a fully hidden and polished look. It is available in high-strength stainless steel or carbon fibre
Titanium / Carbon Fibre Bollards
UP TO 90% WEIGHT SAVING
All REVBO bollards can be manufactured using advanced composite materials, offering substantial weight savings of up to 90% compared to traditional designs.
Constructed with titanium-carbon fibre and titanium sheathing for added wear protection, these bollards provide both strength and durability while maintaining a lightweight profile. They are secured with titanium fasteners for maximum stability. This lightweight construction significantly reduces deck load while maintaining exceptional strength and durability.
The weight-to-safe working load (SWL) ratios illustrate this advantage:
10 tonne SWL = 9kg in composite
17 tonne SWL = 15kg in composite
25 tonne SWL = 24kg in composite
50 tonne SWL = 65kg in composite
