The Tender of the Future for Luxury Charter Yachts

The future of the tender is here! An ‘inflatable island’, which has been designed using the same material from Richard Branson’s hot air balloon in his round-the-world flight is about to be brought into construction. Designers in the superyacht market have followed the trend of high end hotels and brought the model to the yacht market, adding bespoke features such as removable teak decking. “This is a very new product which is just being released to the yachting community and the interest is high,” said Josh Richardson from Superyacht Tenders and Toys. Gone are the days of old fashioned, unreliable tenders, which leave guests trying to stay dry!

Superyacht Tenders and Toys are undertaking the project, which is to be based on the new sea cabana model. In addition to the standard features, such as the sea pool to keep out jellyfish and a lounging area, the tender can be fully customized to your taste and requirements. These can include two ice buckets to keep drinks refrigerated, underwater lighting, as well as the client being able to choose the outer colour of the shell.

You may be wondering why everyone is getting so excited about this concept and why it is necessary? This product is able to offer something that others cannot. It provides guests the chance to pull up extremely close to the shore line for their dinner reservations. Moreover, it provides a relaxation area away from all ambient and engine noises of their yacht. You can truly find yourself at one with the ocean! The ‘ultimate in luxury’ sea cabana comes in two sizes: medium (4m by 5.25m) or large (4m by 7m), which can accommodate up to 20 passengers. It can be inflated in 15 minutes, towed at low speeds behind a tender and anchored separately from a yacht. Build time is approximately four weeks, depending upon customization and current orders.

Water Toys For Your Luxury Yacht Charter Part II

Following on from the incredible water toys described in Part I, we plan to follow suit with two more of the coolest water toys for your yacht! Water toys are often a defining part of a charter, if two yachts are identical, the only two things that will differ (other than the interior) are crew and water toys, which we believe are both very important.

Flyboard

Have you ever really wanted to pretend you were a dolphin? No? Well you might just want to after seeing the Flyboard. We are in absolute awe and we’re looking forward to upcoming seasons where lots of charter yachts have these water toys – because we know they’d be an absolute hit! Available from as little as £4,100 for personal purchasers, we know this is a great buy – maybe even an extravagant Christmas present if it suits!

Seabreacher

New to the water toys market is the Seabreacher, a capsule jetski type contraption, which comes in various different styles, a Killer Whale, a Shark and a Dolphin to name a few.

An option of a yacht that has lots of water toys is always a great choice, which is why we recommend this fantastic Sunseeker 82, available for charter in Cannes, Antibes, Juan les Pins and Golfe Juan, at a rate of €32400 per week plus expenses. For an 82 foot yacht, she has plenty of water toys for your charter, a tender with donuts and water skis, great fun for all the family!

If you’re looking for more water toys to be available during your charter on a slightly larger yacht, please do email all your enquiries to [email protected] and one of our Charter Specialists will get back to you very shortly! Alternatively, head over to www.boatbookings.com, the leading online yacht charter broker.

Water Toys for your Luxury Yacht Charter Part I

Water Toys are fast becoming an essential item on your luxury yacht charter. Starting with simple snorkel gear to speeding jetskis, the water toys available to you are becoming more and more exciting.

The Freestyle Cruiser is an amazing slide, custom made to fit the yacht that it is intended for. The slide is an exhilarating drop down from the top of your yacht – the quickest and easiest way to get from your yacht and in to the water. A Freestyle Cruiser is like having your own on board water park, with plenty of open sea to enjoy it with, and no strangers to get in your way! A yacht slide is fun for everybody, regardless of the age.
Made with the finest materials and craftsmanship; made with the highest grade vinyl for durability the Freestyle Cruiser is welded with state-of-the-art technology. With all the hard work that has gone in to creating this slide, it is without a doubt a brilliant investment for any yacht. A slide of this size and drop will surely guarantee fun. If you are interested in a yacht with a water slide, why not charter AMARULA SUN? This Westport has a great range of water toys, including a slide, perfect for splashing around in the Mediterranean Sea!

The Jet Surf is a combination of a surfboard and technology. A lightweight carbon board that can travel at 55 kilometres per hour, you don’t need waves for this style of surfing. It took 7 years of development, but was definitely worth it for the end result. Similar to a skateboard, you can do jumps and tricks for up to 4 hours before the battery needs recharging. The Jet Surf is a brilliant invention for whizzing across the water, and has proved to be such a hit that there is now such a thing as the Jet Surf World Series – pushing the Jet Surfs to their limit. With a Jet Surf around, who needs tenders and water skis? They will definitely make a fantastic addition to the water toys on any luxury yacht!

If you would like to receive more information with regards to booking your luxury 2013 charter yacht, please enquire through our website, www.boatbookings.com, where one of our Charter Specialists will be happy to help you plan the experience of a lifetime. You can also send your charter enquiries to [email protected], and one of the team will get back to you shortly with some proposals.
