I must change my tender. I'm interested in the Bombard product's, the Aerotec AX2 or the Aerotec AX3.
But I never see this before, only on the sellers catalogue.
Someone have experience with this tender? Are they good? ------------- Aries, Hanse 411 Hullnr. 149 |

I have a bombard since many years. These tenders are made very well. I would bye a new bombard again if i would have to. But mine is still ok. Already 20 Yaers old! ------------- Blake 370

thank you Nereide, I think the AX3 will be my choice, but my doubt is that the tender is too big, compared with the AX2. Can you range this on the deck?
ps : did you sail to Sardinia this summer? ------------- Aries, Hanse 411 Hullnr. 149 |

hi barbarigo,
I've got the AX3 aero and am very happy with it. The tubes are a little bit undersized but that's one reason why it's a real lightweight. Do not take the smaller one, the AX3 is really easy to handle - and not too big for a 40 foot yacht.

just what i was going to say, lightweight is the key word!
goes on foredeck inflated no problem.
.........Has summer started this year?..
