Ever wanted a tender that’s just as fun as a sports toy and stylish enough to match your superyacht? Rate this watercraft from 1-5 stars and comment below! Vanquish Yachts VQ16 © Vanquish Yachts Length: 5.07 m (16.6 ft) Beam: 1.66 m (5.44 ft) Draft: 0.20 m (0.66 ft) Max Power: standard 200 hp Yamaha jet engine; Veloce version pushes beyond 50 knots Passengers: Driver + 5 guests Fuel Capacity: ~60-70 L Price: upon request The VQ16 blurs the line between tender, day-boat, and high-thrill ride. Its jet propulsion is built flat into the hull so it fits neatly into tender garages, yet it delivers sharp acceleration and top speed of around 40 knots in base mode—or over 50 in the Veloce upgrade. The seating layout fits up to five plus driver, with padded benches in the rear and comfortable bow and helm placements. Minimal draft and responsive maneuvering make it ideal for toy towing, beach drop-offs, or zipping across calm bays. #VanquishYachts #VQ16 #TenderFun #HarbourMasters

► Las Palmas, almost an unavoidable stopover on the Atlantic route from Europe, welcomed thousands of sailors during the month of November, when the north-easterly trade winds begin to set in. These crews included a total of 1,300 sailors flying the ARC colors (ARC and ARC +) aboard 253 sailboats. During our visits to the pontoons, we got a measure of the Starlink revolution: only one entrant was equipped last year, compared with 80% of the fleet today... The quality of the connections offered by this satellite operator makes it possible to efficiently follow weather developments, keep in touch those ashore and even work as if at the office! For the first time since we’ve been following ocean-going crews, Vincent, aboard Outremer 51 Piment Rouge, will be sharing his transatlantic passage with us via his videos, which we’ll be relaying. Another special feature of this 2023 edition will be the large number of diesel cans strapped to the guardwires: in a context of very light winds, unusual for the season, the engines (authorized with a penalty for the Multihull category) are likely to be much in demand aboard many of the multihulls. After two weeks of seminars, meetings and safety inspections, the atmosphere on the docks was becoming truly electric during the last three days running up to the start. Studying the weather, stocking up on fresh supplies, washing fruit and vegetables - everyone realized that there was an ocean to cross... Some crew members are more Zen than others: the oldest sailor in the ARC, Joff Hutchinson, 89, declared: “I’ve been sailing for 82 years and I’ve always wanted to cross the Atlantic. Now that my sons have retired, there’s no better time”. The start was relaxed, with the fleet setting off in a light southerly breeze and glorious sunshine, guaranteeing a smooth start for everyone to get their sea legs. ► Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld ► Log on to our website to discover over 500 multihulls tests!
