Shannon tender/launch

The Shannon Tender is a fiberglass boat with twin diesel engines capable of propelling the boat in excess of 30 knots, a conventional drive for easy maintenance, a shallow draft, and a modified deep V hull shape for a smooth and dry ride in rough seas. The exterior features stern boarding, a substantial swim platform, wrap-around aft seating, a removable cap with a convertible top and two helm seats. The bow has an optional “Aphrodite Seat” for 2 and a sundeck on the trunk cabin. The cabin layout is custom designed to owner specifications.

Each Shannon Tender will be detailed to match the spirit of the megayacht it supports with the finest quality of exterior and interior jointer work and custom design features. It is Schulz Boat Company’s belief that each tender should be treated as an extension of the megayacht, rather than as a separate component.

Shannon Custom Tenders are also available and can be designed in conjunction with the owner’s choice of naval architects.

"Walt Schulz, who began designing Shannons in 1975 and has created both power and sailing craft, has been selling his Downeast-style boats to traditional boaters for the past several years. But given the desire among megayacht owners to have classic-looking cruisers as tenders, Schulz has decided to launch semicustom 28- and 32-footers at his facility in Rhode Island..... If the boats he’s been designing and building recently are any indication, Schulz’s tenders should work out just fine."

Schulz Boat Company announces its return to the megayacht auxiliary industry with the introduction of their newest design: the luxury Shannon Tender.

Based on Shannon’s 30+ years of high-quality boatbuilding experience, the Shannon Tender is designed to serve two purposes with one boat: a cocktail cruiser for the owner who desires a hands-on boating experience, and a 10 person limo launch with a spacious cabin and sheltered cockpit seating using the removable hardtop.
