Grand Boats
Premium GRP tenders, 3 m to 10 m
The brand
Grand's Australian range spans everything from a 3 m compact premium tender to a 10 m luxury or commercial RIB. The S and G families are the ones a yacht owner shops; above the G500 you are buying an independent recreational RIB that happens to have tubes.
Grand now has a substantial and clearly defined Australian model range.
Our take
S300 and S330 for a compact premium tender, G340 and G380 for a luxury motor-yacht tender, S420/G420/S470 when the tender is also the dayboat.

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

Best Dinghies for Full-Time Liveaboards
A liveaboard's tender is a car.
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.
