All the biggest superyachts (THERE The 10 largest in the world) have a tender proportioned to their size. In some cases, you can get to have support boats up to 14/15 meters, the large “mega-tender”. Among these there is a very particular and luxurious category, the limousines of the sea.
The shape is that of an elongated open with a “blanket” above the central part, where the owner usually travels comfortably seated with his guests, in an area isolated from the rest of the boat, where it is guaranteed all the privacy that the owner wants. These boats are used for short trips between larger boats and marinas
