Falcon Tenders
Falcon Tenders has been shortlisted for the Interior Design Award Under 40 Metres in The International Yacht & Aviation Awards 2023.
Falcon Tenders design intent was to develop an extremely stylish high-quality limousine to bridge the gap between performance and ocean preservation, with completely new lines, exterior and interior finishes and textures using sustainably sourced materials. Seating capacity, ease of launching, crew operation, passenger boarding and stowing of hand luggage have been carefully considered whilst delivering beauty along with performance and the smoothest possible, quiet, and dry ride.
Sustainability is at the core of the Falcon Tenders brand appealing to the younger generation of yacht owners today as well as being relevant to the owners of tomorrow. They manufacture the main structures and small component mouldings using plant-based epoxy resin coming from the latest innovations in bio-based chemistry. The hull and deck of the limousine tender used lightweight foam sandwich construction for a stiff structure.
Faired and painted to superyacht standards in high gloss Black Blue and Signal White, all the components are of the highest quality with attention to serviceability and longevity. The edge pressed bamboo veneers used for the main bulkheads in the interior are also sustainably sourced. Falcon Tenders’ clients demand the finest materials and extremely close attention to detail, and to that end they have sourced fine Scottish leather for the interior sofas from hides reared through a unique blend of animal husbandry and fertile grazing, combined with interesting textures and details from Foglizzo and Alcantara. The stone flooring is manufactured from light weight 6mm porcelain, giving the appearance of natural stone.
Most tenders of this type are used for transitions between the yacht and shore. With the hybrid solution departures and arrivals are clean and almost silent when in the vicinity of the yacht or in close quarters such as harbours, marinas and inland waterways. This particular design affords easy safe boarding with generously sized treads and sturdy handholds for guest arrival and departure, with automated saloon doors fitted with inflatable seals.
