Vripack – LimoTender to MY Global

Vripack – LimoTender to MY Global (ex-Kismet)

Lightweight, strong and durable
As a former Olympic sailor Xtenders’ founder Herbert Dercksen knows that weight is killing so he made sure that the LimoTender got built to the highest level of modern carbon fiber pre-impregnated construction. Known from various competitive race scenes, uni-direction carbon is exceptionally strong and renowned for its ability to deliver the ultimate performance in the most challenging conditions while keeping weight to a minimum. No wonder it’s the material of choice for the Dutch high performance tender builders.

Comfort to the max
Understanding the job she will perform, which is carrying her owner and guests under all conditions to and from shore, the LimoTender combines exhilarating performance with comfort. Light weight brings high speed, outstanding handling and manoeuvrability, crucial for any people carrier. Light weight also leads to a reduction in engine size, lower fuel consumption and noise levels. And, let’s not forget, it allows the tender to sail at 40 knots with 10 guests and 2 crew members on board.

Vripack designed her hull with a sailboat-like entry angle, flaired bow and deep V aft ship pushing water away from the hull lifting the boat out. Her hull lines reduce slamming and redirect the spray.

Just like her mother
For the exterior design Vripack drew inspiration from the outlines of the mothership while her size is carefully aligned to perfectly fit the existing tender garage. Her streamlined exterior embodies speed and her smart and super-efficient lay-out breathes comfort and functionality.

An interior for a Limousine tender is different than a normal yacht interior because, like in a car, your eyes are very close to the details crafted. Vripack therefore gave her a light and tranquil feel with off-white Bentley stitched leather bouncing off the matt finished dark woods. To connect with the water the Dutch Studio inserted a window along the waterline making you feel like flying over water. No Limousine is ready without a refrigerated-champagne-cabinet, custom mood lighting, air conditioning and various multimedia appliances.

In every respect a masterpiece of functionality, or as Sam Mandeno – Chief Officer of M/Y Global stated; “The LimoTender has a distinctive look which is both unique and modern. Everybody on the crew has been blown away by how she looks and above all how she performs”.
