Xtenders

Project Description

THE ULTIMATE CARBON SUPERYACHT TENDER

Xtenders is recognised as the leading builder of bespoke carbon superyacht tenders. With unlimited devotion, our team and clients are challenging the limits, to secure each new tender evolves in design, engineering and performance. Each Xtenders is unique.

Xtenders is based in the Netherlands and with roots dating back to 2009 we have accomplished a design philosophy by constructing our tenders entirely in pre-preg carbon fibre, a production technology developed for the formula 1 and the aerospace industry. This technique provides the most optimal structural performance while keeping the weight to a minimum.

Using an autoclave technology means that a component is produced under high pressure and high temperatures to cure the carbon fibre laminate. Total control of the material properties brings several advantages to superyacht tenders that have never been seen before in this industry. Simply said, our tenders are stronger and much lighter. The advantages of a light weight tender reflect in less load, so lighter tender cranes; easy and safe launching; smaller engines, so a higher fuel efficiency and more space for guests.

Xtenders is the only tender manufacturer in the world that can provide all these characteristics to their tenders, by consistently using autoclave technology for every single component.

Starting each project with a blank sheet of paper, we offer full custom tenders ranging from 6m up to 16m. Each Xtenders is designed and built to meet the unique needs of our clients and closely match their yachts, from limousine tender, d-rib, landing craft to Solas rescue boat.

XTENDERS 9.7m Limousine tender

One of the latest designs from a drawing board of Xtenders team that is currently being built, is a 9.7m limousine day tender. Her masculine lines are drawn in tune with the latest trends in yacht design. She is an answer to a growing popularity of limousine tenders that combine comfort of a fully enclosed interior with outside accommodation for guests to enjoy the trip.

Design includes a powerful drivetrain package with the hull design by Vripack and a smart lay-out to facilitate diverging activities of the guests and the owner. Retractable bimini and folding windscreens minimize the storage height down to two meters. Comfortably accessible interior with two entries accommodates up to 6 guests and can be finished to match your taste and the mothership’s styling.
