Tender boat towing is a common practice in the yachting industry and offers many benefits to luxury yacht owners. Here we will explain the advantages of tender boats and provide helpful tips on organization and handling when towing.

Advantages of towing tender boats:

Extended mobility: A tender boat provides yacht owners and their guests with additional mobility to reach smaller bays, rivers and remote beaches that may be inaccessible to the yacht itself.

Faster access to shore activities: tender boats provide quick and convenient access to water sports activities, restaurants, shopping and cultural attractions ashore without the need to anchor the yacht close to shore.

Safety and emergency assistance: In the event of an emergency, a tender boat can act as a lifeboat or request additional assistance.

Increased privacy: tender boats can serve as a buffer zone between the main yacht and prying eyes, maintaining the privacy of yacht owners and their guests.

Organization and handling of tender boats:

Towing device: Invest in a reliable towing device to securely and efficiently attach the tender boat to the yacht.

At least 100 meters of rope: When towing the tender boat, use a rope at least 100 meters long to ensure sufficient distance between the yacht and the tender boat. This allows better control and reduces the risk of collisions.

Towing speed and distance: Adjust the towing speed and distance to suit the conditions and the particular tender boat. Slower towing is safer and uses less fuel.

Communications: Ensure that there are working communications devices on both the yacht and the tender boat to keep in constant contact.

Weather conditions: Consider weather conditions before towing the tender boat. Towing can be risky in bad weather and should be avoided.
