“ If you can dream it, you can do it.”Walt Disney
At Wahoo, we follow the Principle of Passion. It’s a
simple philosophy that comes from the belief that
the more we put in, the more you’ll get out.
From the first line of the architect’s drawing to the
very last second of our testing programme at sea,
we have applied this principle to help fashion a
truly remarkable range of superyacht tenders.
Superyacht tenders par excellence.
The Principle of Passion“ If you can dream it, you can do it.”Walt Disney
The Wahoo Collection
The design and performance characteristics of
our craft have given Wahoo a strong following
amongst the world’s superyacht cognoscenti.
All our vessels have clean, uncluttered lines with
control systems built around human logic and
performance characteristics that very few rivals
can match. Their combination of power and
comfort is simply intoxicating.
Our chief naval architect is a firm believer in
fluid design – the idea that you can build infinite
variations from a single, brilliant design.
That’s why each of the six models in our range
can be easily adapted to create an infinite
number of bespoke vessels. Longer, wider,
diesel, petrol, inboard, outboard, more power,
less power, more seats, less seats, white,
black, red, blue . . .
Our collection spans the entire spectrum of
sizes and uses. From a 6.2m inboard crew
tender and an ocean-eating 700hp chase boat,
up to an 11.5m explorer support vessel, a fully
certified SOLAS rescue launch and a stunning
new all-weather limousine.
But amid all this choice, one thing comes as
standard - peace of mind. Every Wahoo - with
the exception of the limousine - shares the
same race-bred hull with outstanding handling
characteristics in all conditions. And every Wahoo
has industry-leading warranties to ensure our
customers are never left high and dry.

The Wahoo LX is the ultimate superyacht tender. As happy slicing through
the “white stuff” as calmly ferrying guests ashore, she’s a versatile and
stylish vessel that will turn heads wherever she goes. Originally designed
by the award-winning naval architect Lorne Campbell and refined by our
in-house team, the LX is offered in its standard 9.6m, 600hp guise, or can
be custom-built to suit your requirements.

“ Beautiful design, build quality, performance and sea keeping characteristics…simply brilliant.”
Jonathan Beckett, CEO Burgess Yachts
For those who like to live life in the fast lane, we offer our
blisteringly quick RX700. With two 350hp super-charged Mercury
outboards and the legendary Wahoo hull, she is not for the
faint-hearted. But thanks to meticulous design and outstanding
performance characteristics, the RX700 is also perfect as a more
sedate superyacht tender. A case of “Beauty and the Beast”.

The Wahoo SP is a SOLAS certified rescue tender which meets
all the stringent requirements for a rescue vessel aboard
yachts greater than 500gt. Despite its technical abilities, the
SP is still a handsome RIB fit for daily tender duties as well
as heavy duty rescue work. The SP has been designed with a
broad beam to allow plenty of space for crew and equipment.

your requirements, making her an extremely attractive choice for superyachts of all sizes.
