The 42-Foot Tender That Would Rather Be the Yacht

TYKUN has introduced a 42-foot tender as the new top of its range, and it is built to be two boats at once: it has the polish of a proper motor yacht and the toughness of a rigid inflatable. In Florida that combination fits naturally. In Miami it would be the boat that gets noticed at the sandbar, in Palm Beach the one that quietly makes the run to the dock, and in Naples the one that does both without drawing much attention. A tender is usually the support act, the boat that carries guests from the larger yacht to shore. At 42 feet, and finished this carefully, TYKUN's new model looks ready to be the main attraction.
