One of 580 dinghies, tenders and RIBs in the BuyDinghy Australian database, scored against packable yacht tenders rather than the market as a whole.

Where this model fits

At 2.20 m, this model sits at the compact end of the packable yacht tenders. That helps define the comparison set, but storage, total package weight and local support still decide whether it belongs on a shortlist.

Its published maximum power is 3 hp; confirm the maximum engine weight and shaft length before treating that as an engine recommendation. The published capacity is 2 people, but real usable payload also has to include fuel, equipment and the conditions in which the boat will operate.

Before you request a quote

  • Ask the seller to identify the exact LT2 model year and included configuration in writing.
  • Build a ready-to-use weight from the 16.5 kg published hull figure and the exact engine and equipment quoted.
  • Request the complete delivered price, including unavoidable freight, preparation and registration costs.
  • Confirm warranty and parts support for this exact model under Achilles's current Australian arrangement.

Fit scores

Each score is Achilles's editorial score for that job, scaled by how well a 2.20 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 71
Fishing 40
Club / rescue 41

Estimated ready-to-use weight: about 53 kg

Published hull weight is 16.5 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.
