HODGDON YACHTS DELIVERS TWO MORE TENDERS
Hull 415 open and hull 416 limo by Andrew Winch Designs
Hodgdon Yachts announces the delivery of its fifth and sixth new custom tenders – Hulls 415 and 416.
This pair of 8.5m beauties was designed by Andrew Winch Designs of London, with naval architecture and engineering by Hodgdon’s own in-house engineering team. The pair was specially engineered and constructed using infused epoxy carbon fibre construction to meet the client’s demanding weight requirements.
The limousine tender features the exceptional craftsmanship and sophisticated systems engineering that Hodgdon is so well known for. Outside, a defining characteristic of the AWD design is a c ompound curve teak clad transom exceptionally executed. Inside, the full wood raised panel teak joinery interior features separate lavatory and wash basin lockers with luxury leather seating for up to 8 guests. Systems highlights include NEMA 2000 systems integrated iPad in the salon, electrically retracting glass moon roof, electrically retracting glass aft bulkhead, hydraulically lifting roof, lithium ion smart battery system and more.
The open tender, a companion to the limo tender, features open seating for 12, a retracting hardtop over the helm (for clearance into the mother ship tender garage) and a special AWDdesigned and Hodgdon-engineered retracting bow ramp for beach and shore-side guest boarding convenience.
Both tenders are in transit to a significant shipyard in Holland where they will join the mother ship launching soon.
