Aerowave
The third inflatable-cat option
The brand
Aerowave deserves comparison alongside Takacat and True Kit rather than being treated as an also-ran. The brand currently divides its offer across several distinct design families rather than a single inflatable-cat concept, including open-bow and Sovereign configurations and an aluminium Sprint RIB line.
Currently advertised across Viper, AeroCat, Sport and Sprint RIB designs.

Best Tenders for a Cruising Couple with Davits
Davits change everything: the tender no longer has to fold, but it does have to hang.

Buyer type
Best Tenders for a Cruising Catamaran
A cruising catamaran can generally carry a larger tender than a comparable monohull: the davits are wider, the transom steps are easier and the weight matters less.
