Attessa Tender

Came across this mega yacht today and checked out it's tender
Googled the yacht and has quite an interesting story.
Couldn't find out any info on the RIB though
Thats a lot of stainless to keep clean
And couldn't resist this egret fishing for its dinner on the bait tanks
cheers Dal

The yacht was built by Feadship in Holland but who built the RIB I don't know. Looks like a stepped hull so maybe a Buzzi???

You have a discerning eye Cod, (stepped hull) I didn't notice that the first time I viewed the pic, must be slipping.....

The Yacht is owned by Dennis Washington.. found this on google

"Dennis is a Montana businessman and founder of the Washington Companies."

Apparently the boat has just been refitted after a fire.

The tender that appears in many pics with Attessa is not a Wally - she's a retired America's Cup Victory Challenge crew boat with some custom touches.
