AEROTEND 260 Yacht Tender / Inflatable Floor / 3 Person / 2.56 m

What makes the perfect yacht tender? Maximum safety, easy handling and optimum driving characteristics in any situation. While slatted bottom boats meet the requirements of simple construction, transport and storage, they also make a compromise in driving characteristics as well. Boats with solid fiberglass hulls (RIBs) provide the best handling characteristics, but because of their dimensions and heavy weight, their usage is usually limited to large yachts.

SEATEC-AEROTEND tenders connect all of these important characteristics together! This has been achieved by their entirely new high-pressure inflatable flooring systems that consist of two chambers, which are layed out in a V-shaped manner. This creates a stable, solid hull which almost reaches the capabiities seen in RIB vessels - however, with considerably lower weight, smaller packing volume and higher carrying capacities!

This special hull design guarantees high directional stability, very good steering control and less drift. The integrated transom trim plates in the stern's construction ensure optimum gliding for the boat and safe steering control around curves, even under strenuous driving conditions.

Note regarding the material:
The SEATEC AEROTEND yacht tenders are made of a special 5 layer PVC (polyvinyl chloride) material. The base consists of a poly fiber (polyester) fabric lining. The fabric is made of 1100 Decitex and is thus very sturdy. The fabric is lined on the interior and exterior with a so-called adhesive layer. This layer serves as a substrate for the equally double-sided PVC coating. Thanks to the PVC coating, the dinghy is airtight and sturdy. Only first-rate PVC material is used, which has specially been developed for the production of dinghies and has proven its durability for years. The material strength is approx. 0.7 mm and the boat's skin weighs about 850 g/m². The material is made in Germany. Max. tensile force is approx. 2500 N/ 5 cm.
The floor of the yacht tenders also consists of a multi-layer laminate and a spacer fabric with a strength of 67 mm. The weight of the floor is 1950 g/m² and has a maximum tensile force of 3000 N/5cm on both sides.
