COMPASS TENDERS
iconic superyachts since 2004. Particularly notable are the 11m limousine and 11m sport tender for Feadship’s 99m Madame Gu, an 11.6m limousine tender for Lurssen’s 91m Lady Lara and a 9.5m chase tender, which partners the 156m Dilbar. The company often works with the same exterior stylist as for the mother ship, ensuring that design characteristics are mirrored. Last year, they delivered four custom tenders to Lurssen’s 123m Al Lusail, including two 11.2m limousines styled by H2 Yacht Design, and Compass’ most recent builds will shortly be delivered to the latest Feadship, 110m Anna. Compass Tenders’ workshop and build shed, situated on the River Hamble on the UK’s south coast, spans in excess of 25,000 square feet - employing over 60 people. Compass Tenders also continue to produce DRIBs and landing craft, with these practical vessels benefitting from the same quality and high standards as an owner’s private limousine.

UNLIKE ANYTHING ELSE ON THE MARKET THEN AND NOW, CUSTOMERS ARE IMPRESSED WITH THE EASY, SURE-FOOTED HANDLING CHARACTERISTICS
offshore as a towed chase boat and the fully customised 3.25m Silurian model we tested proved she can out speed most large cruising yachts.
CUSTOMISED BOATS The classic sports boat features a shallow hull angle at the back of the boat and an engine in the centre. This combined with the shallow deadrise (the vertical distance between a line drawn horizontally to the keel of a boat and its chine) allows the boat to run at a level attitude. The result is strong acceleration and minimal wake size, allowing them to pull a skier and wake surfer with greater ease. They have become popular with larger superyachts that boats apply garage space as tenders because quite simply guests like to use water toys when a yacht is at anchor. Typical of this class would be boats the likes of the Mastercraft XT 25, which is a popular of Captains given the high level of customisation available.
Raymond Colquhoun’s Scotland Nautique, business lives and breathes all things boats. They have called the beautiful banks of Scotland’s Loch Lomond home since 2010, but have grown to the point that they have opened offices in Ibiza and Majorca. They import Nautique and recommend them when superyachts seek customised ski, wake
and surf boats. With a 5 year worldwide warranty they can be fully customised with fitting for lifting rings and windscreen removal for deck or garage storage.
Known worldwide for their hand-crafted customised tenders, the Novurania deluxe series deep ‘V’ hull and bow flare provides a smooth and stable ride, quietly powered by Yamaha four stroke outboard engines. These centre-console RIB tenders are sport-boats in their own right and can be customised with a full electronics package, with imagination being the only limiting factor in your decision.
Optioned out with a ski tow pylon, the 460, 550, 650, & 750 DLs can easily pull a water skier up, even when on a slalom ski. Each can easily pull two wake-boards or knee boards, and is up to the task of pulling any inflatable water toys. The larger Deluxe line models allow for various seating and deck layouts for even greater customisation options. With available power options up to 250 HP, the larger DLs can also easily transport more guests back and forth to the dock or beach.
DL tenders can be built to match a yacht’s colour scheme, with optional gel coat, upholstery, and tube colours available.
