Inflatable Tenders, RIBs, Dinghies & Tender Accessories
Shop inflatable tenders, RIBs, dinghies, tender accessories, tender pumps, oars, covers, davits, trailer parts, and tender or trolling motors for ship-to-shore transport.
Confirm tender length, passenger capacity, weight, stowage space, davit fit, motor rating, floor type, tube material, and accessory compatibility before ordering.
Tender setup depends on boat size, storage, lifting method, beaching needs, motor power, inflation pressure, and local requirements. Confirm fit before purchase.
Tender Subcategories
Fitment
Match the Tender to the Boat and Use
The right tender depends on passenger count, payload, stowage, lifting method, beach landings, tube material, floor type, motor rating, and how it will be launched from the mothership.
Selection
Think About Storage and Launching
A tender needs to fit both the cruising plan and the mothership. Check weight, davit limits, deck storage, transom rating, folded dimensions, and how easily it can be launched by the crew.
Before ordering, measure storage space, lifting points, transom height, motor rating, tube diameter, and existing accessory mounting points.
Inflatable Tenders
Inflatable tenders and RIBs support ship-to-shore runs, anchoring, exploring, crew transfer, and carrying gear.
Accessories
Pumps, oars, covers, seats, repair kits, davit hardware, and storage gear keep the tender ready for use.
Tender Motors
Tender and trolling motors help move dinghies quietly, efficiently, and with better control around docks and anchorages.
Accessories
Plan Inflation, Stowage, Lifting, and Propulsion
A reliable tender setup includes the right pump, oars, painter line, lifting hardware, cover, repair kit, fuel or battery plan, and a safe way to launch and recover the boat.
Care
Tender Gear Needs Routine Care
Tender reliability depends on clean tubes, correct pressure, protected fabric, sound oars, good valves, secure lifting points, and a ready pump or motor.
Troubleshooting
Small Tender Issues Grow Quickly
Low pressure, chafe, UV damage, valve leaks, loose hardware, or worn oars can turn a simple shore run into a problem.
Inspect tubes, seams, valves, transom, floor, painter line, lifting points, and motor mount before every longer trip.
FAQ
Tenders & Accessories Questions
What size tender do I need?
Start with passenger count, payload, storage space, davit capacity, and the distance you typically travel from boat to shore. Bigger tenders carry more but are heavier to lift and store.
What is the difference between an inflatable tender and a RIB?
An inflatable tender may have an air, slat, or roll-up floor, while a RIB uses a rigid hull with inflatable tubes. RIBs often perform better but usually weigh more and need more storage space.
Should I use oars, an outboard, or an electric tender motor?
Oars are useful backup propulsion. Outboards and electric motors provide better range and control. Choose based on tender rating, transom height, weight, charging or fuel needs, and how far you travel.
What tender accessories should I carry?
Common essentials include a pump, oars or paddles, painter line, repair kit, cover, bailer, light, safety gear, and hardware for your launch or davit setup.
