The story
The 11.6m Chase tender is a great multipurpose tender. It was designed to facilitate the daily crew routine by offering a lot of storage space and stability. Nevertheless, she is equipped with six shock mitigation seats and spacious shaded seating area on the aft deck. The ventilated cabin offers proper shelter for passengers when the weather gets rough. It can be completely closed by installing a removable fabric cover.
The Chase tender is extremely light despite her size. Propelled by two inboard 265hp engines she reaches speeds of 40 knots with ease and uses just a fraction of fuel reserves when cruising at around 25 knots. Just like all our other tenders utilizing our lightweight construction methods, she can be lifted for storage onto the top deck of her mother ship using a single crane. The three custom made carbon Sampson posts not only add to the richness of her finish, but also innovatively function as lifting points for the crane.
