Inflatable Tender Recommendations

Hi

Any recommendations for a lightweight 2 man tender, preferable with a solid transom.

Thanks

David

I've just bought a lovely little Avon Redstart for exactly that purpose.

It's a cracking little thing in good shape and it was only £90 including two piece oars.

Same valves as the Rib. I want it for Priory Bay.

Perfect.

We use a 3D, think it’s the 2.7m and about 15kg - which makes it easy to throw around and half of the weight of our other traditional style tender

Sutty, yes Cheddleton Staffs

Lee and Sutty I will check out the 3D thanks.

Avon for £90 thats a bargain - have a 260 roll up hard floor, but its a bit heavy and past its best (rubbing strake just fell off).

Will also take a look at the Plastimo
