More than just an Auxiliary Boat
In the world of megayachts, every detail matters. Excellence is sought not only in the design and performance of the main yacht, but also in the auxiliary boats—the so-called tenders. These are not mere support vessels: they are an extension of the style, comfort, and sophistication offered by the mother yacht.
A tender must fulfill multiple functions: transport guests in comfort and safety, offer agile access to land, serve as an exploration vessel, or even as a platform for water sports. But beyond its functionality, it must also be on par aesthetically and technically with the megayacht it accompanies.
What Characteristics should a Good Tender Have?
-
Stylish and discreet design that complements the main yacht without competing with it.
-
Exceptional stability and maneuverability, even in adverse conditions.
-
High speed and power for fast and safe transfers.
-
Premium comfort for passengers, with high-end finishes.
-
Customization capacity, as it must adapt to the style and needs of the yacht owner.
-
Simple maintenance, ease of loading on board, and resistance to intensive use.
In short, a megayacht tender should be a synthesis of nautical design, cutting-edge technology, and functional luxury.
