Written by Williams Jet Tenders

Choosing the right fuel type for your tender is essential to defining your ultimate boating experience. At Williams Jet Tenders, we understand that your tender is more than just a vessel – it’s an extension of your lifestyle and reflects your commitment to excellence on the water. Whether you’re drawn to the thrilling performance of petrol tenders, the long-range efficiency of diesel models, or the quiet experience of electric innovations, we offer a range of world-class options tailored to your needs.

 

High Performance for Every Adventure

 

Petrol-powered Williams Jet Tenders are equipped with powerful engines designed for high-speed performance. Ideal for water sports enthusiasts or those seeking rapid acceleration, these tenders use gasoline, a fuel readily available at marinas worldwide.


Williams Jet Tenders’ petrol models, such as the MiniJet, TurboJet and SportJet range, offer unmatched performance and agility. These smaller tenders in the range work great in shallower waters and shorter, convenient trips from ship to shore.

 

The Epitome of Efficiency and Range

 

Diesel-powered tenders, like our luxurious DieselJet range, mean the parent yacht doesn’t need to carry 2 fuel types onboard. These tenders are often larger than petrol-powered tenders, so they are designed for those who value people carrying and longer-distance cruising.


The DieselJet range combines efficiency and luxury, making it a popular choice for crew operated tenders. These tenders offer greater range, fewer refuels, and robust performance, ideal for exploring remote locations further away or serving as versatile yacht tenders. With advancements in fuels such as HVO100, diesel tenders which are compatible are also stepping towards a greener future.
 

 

The Future of Boating?

 

Our cutting-edge electric tender, the EvoJet 70e, represents the pinnacle of refined luxury. Powered by advanced battery systems, electric tenders provide a quiet, serene cruising experience while eliminating traditional engine noise and emissions. Williams built an electric tender as a technology demonstrator and are working with yacht manufacturers on the charging requirements and fitment integration.


The electric Evojet tender delivers zero emissions and a quiet operation without compromising on top speed, making it a truly unique cruising experience with a typical activity cycle of around 56 minutes running time.

 

While electric tenders are perfect for short-range trips, they require careful planning due to charging needs and range limitations. Additionally, they usually involve a higher initial investment due to battery costs.

 

Choosing the Right Fuel Type for Your Tender

 

Ultimately, the tender that is chosen is usually determined by the fitment space onboard the parent yacht, and people will usually choose the biggest tender available to them. At Williams Jet Tenders, we take pride in offering a range of expertly crafted tenders to suit every boating lifestyle. Whether you’re drawn to the exhilaration of petrol models, the endurance of diesel tenders, or the sustainable elegance of electric options, you can trust us to deliver the ultimate in maritime luxury and performance.
