Tender Boats

Tender boats are small, motorized crafts that ferry passengers from their ship to the shore and back. They can be useful for getting on and off a ship when it is anchored in a port or marina, or when it's too far away from shore to walk. They're usually used for larger ships, like cruise ships or large cargo ships. Tender boats can be rigid or inflatable, both are easy to store however inflatable tender boats tend to be smaller than rigid ones because they're made from lightweight materials like plastic or fabric that can be folded up when not in use.
