One of 575 dinghies, tenders and RIBs in the BuyDinghy Australian database, scored against rigid inflatable yacht tenders rather than the market as a whole.

Fit scores

Each score is Achilles's editorial score for that job, scaled by how well a 2.90 m hull suits it. A superb manufacturer still makes boats that are wrong for your job — the curve is what says so. How this is calculated.

Yacht tender 85
Fishing 55
Club / rescue 48

Estimated ready-to-use weight: about 97 kg

Published hull weight is 44 kg. Our estimate adds a typical four-stroke outboard at maximum rating, a full portable fuel tank, anchor, rode, safety gear and a lifting bridle. It is an estimate, not a specification — but it is far closer to what your davits will carry than the brochure figure. See the full calculation.
