Product overviewTenderConnect secures a dinghy to the yacht stern in under one minute, providing wind- and wave-resistant retention without davits. The system uses a patented stainless-steel locking mechanism and minimizes retained rain or seawater in the dinghy. Outriggers on the dinghy are fitted or removed in seconds using quick releases.
Clear advantages over other systems- Fast operation: dinghy can be moored or launched within a minute.
- Automatic lock when pulled up, securing the dinghy under wind and wave load.
- Minimal water retention inside the dinghy for easier maintenance and storage.
- Deck space optimization: keeps cockpit and deck clear of tangled lines and loose equipment.
- Simple handling: quick coupling and uncoupling, often operable single-handedly.
- Durable construction: corrosion-resistant materials designed for marine environments.
- Adjustable components to accommodate different dinghy sizes and transom shapes.
- Field-tested up to 40 kn wind (with wind from astern) in practical trials.
- Usually fixed to the stern with only four screws for straightforward installation.
- Enables storage and winterization at the stern under a tarpaulin cover.
