Boat Design

Ultra Lite tenders are purposefully designed to be a true yacht tender for trawlers, yachts, sailboats, catamarans, and sportfishing boats. These tenders provide a high quality alternative to the inflatable boat. Many people looking for a rigid craft end up using various flats boats or skiffs to fill this need. We enlisted the services of Ocean 5 Naval Architects to help us design two initial boats: a 3 Meter boat (10 ft.) and a 3.8 meter boat (12.5 ft.).

The envelope dimensions and weight are similar to corresponding RIB specifications. The boats are designed to be very stable, have a good ride with a fine entry, and to have good load carrying capabilities. The boats feature recessed motor mounting wells to increase flotation aft and keep the motor out of contact with the mother ship. Generous gunnels and a flat foredeck make easier access from docks and are comfortable to ride.

Manufacturing Process

The CAD designs were sent to a tooling manufacturer who produced female molds on large five axis milling machines. The manufacturing process utilizes the latest in vacuum resin infusion methods to produce a very light and strong boat. We designed a custom extrusion to use as a rub rail which is as soft and large as possible and will protect the mother ship from dings and abrasions. The boats are manufactured in Stuart, FL USA.

Construction

The ULT tenders were designed by Ocean 5 Naval Architects and are currently available in two different sizes. The ULT300 is 10 ft. and the ULT 380 is 12.5 ft. They are rigid boats designed as yacht tenders with excellent load carrying capabilities, stability, and efficient operation. The construction consists of a high performance gel coat exterior, advanced woven composites (Kevlar and E glass), structural foam coring throughout, and is manufactured using a vacuum resin infusion process with vinyl ester resins. The vinyl ester resins prevent osmosis and blistering and the vacuum infusion process ensures the lightest strongest boat possible. All hardware points are reinforced.

Standard Features

• Fine entry with multiple chines to promote stability
• Large delta plane to promote easy planing
• Seadeck topsides for comfort and a good nonskid surface
• Stainless steel tie downs, one in the bow and two on the transom
• Stainless steel lifting eyes inside the boats for davits or cranes
• Custom EPDM extruded rub rail for maximum protection
• Bench seats on seat rails allowing repositioning or removal
• Three sets of recessed deck cleats
• Texiline storage bags with bungeed handles for dry storage
• Fuel lines run to the cuddy for better weight distribution
• All boats come with a collapsible paddle

ULT Tenders vs. Inflatables

Compared to an inflatable tender, the rigid boat has MANY advantages. It will last longer than any hypalon or vinyl boat which tends to deteriorate fairly quickly from UV rays. It will not leak as most inflatables slowly lose air over time or quickly lose air after contacting a reef or barnacle at a dingy dock. Inflatable boats have flexible tubes that create parasitic drag. The rigid boat is much more efficient with much better running surfaces meaning faster planing with lower horsepower than any inflatable. The ULT tenders are designed to the approximate dimensions of comparable inflatable tenders.

The ULT 300 planes easily with a 300 lb payload and a 9.8 hp carburated Tohatsu motor.
