I WANT ONE<br />
OF THOSE<br />
Guy Mannering is a broker with Cecil Wright and has nearly<br />
two decades of experience as a charter Captain. With an<br />
in-depth knowledge of the logistical requirements of large<br />
yacht operation and ownership, Guy is well placed to offer<br />
his opinion on his all time favourite tenders and toys<br />
BEST LOOKING TENDER VANQUISH VQ55<br />
It’s like Van Dutch and Wajer made a baby and what a beauty. Just<br />
stunning to drive and you can always guarantee an exquisite build<br />
quality from Northern Europe. They’re also fairly uncommon so a real<br />
head turner. I drove one a few years ago, but the newer VQ55 Sportline<br />
has a stepped hull to add lift and reduce friction. This in combination<br />
with five Mercury V12s, the speed can reach up to 70 knots. Also<br />
available with twin Nanni N16 1200 hp (V8) inboard diesels and<br />
waterjets, giving top speed of 50 knots. All too often the final detailing<br />
on larger tenders gets ignored, but I was thoroughly impressed. A<br />
miniature superyacht through and through.<br />
