Superyacht Tenders and Toys appointed as global superyacht partner for Avon Electric Jet Tenders
Award-winning Superyacht Tenders and Toys (SYTT) has been selected as the global dealer (superyacht market) of Avon Electric Jet Tenders.
The Avon eJET 450 is the world’s first electric jet tender that does not compromise on performance. It combines rapid acceleration with the comfort of silence, owing to proprietary hydrojet technology developed specifically for the electric engine and BMW i3 battery.
All boats are hand built in France, including the revolutionary jet drive, using the century-old know-how of Zodiac Nautic. The eJET 450 is an ideal fit for yachts of 30m and larger, replacing many of the well-known petrol and diesel alternatives. It can be configured in any colour combination and can come with a number of very attractive features such as a carbon bimini, carbon steering wheel, folding seating and more.
Richard Booth, Senior Project Manager and Sales Manager at SYTT, comments: “Avon is a great fit for yachts as a small guest tender. The boats are well built, dry, fast and offer an enormous amount of guest seating all at a very attractive price point. We are looking forward to showing clients the boat in the flesh at LYBRA The Superyacht Show in May.”

SYTT’s sister company, superyacht deck equipment supplier, Shipyard Supply Co (SSCo) has appointed Adam Hunkin as a Project Assistant.
SSCo has recently launched its own superyacht deck equipment range, and Adam’s new role will focus on the superyacht procurement and sales side of the business.
“We are very excited to welcome Adam to the team. He has a wealth of hands-on superyacht experience having worked on a number of significant yachts as a deckhand,” says Luke Porter, SSCo Commercial Manager. “The growth of the company and expanding order book led us to look for an addition to our team who will fit in with our ethos of innovation and exceptional customer service. Adam will focus on supporting yachts at launch or during refit with these items to help take the time and stress out of the process for crew members.”
