AB Mares 10 VSX 10’6″ Fiberglass Console Yacht Tender

Description

Review the hull, deck, and propulsion requirements of the AB Inflatables Mares 10 VSX before selecting an outboard. This 3.20 m, or 10 ft 6 in, console yacht tender uses a deep-V double molded fiberglass hull with integrated spray rails. A molded non-skid pattern covers the hand-laid fiberglass deck, while three ORCA CSM 1100 dtex buoyancy tubes use cold-cured hand-laminated seams. Plan lifting and storage around the 175 kg, or 385 lb, net weight.

ISO capacity is four persons, and passenger and cargo planning must remain within the 450 kg, or 992 lb, maximum payload. An integrated 22 L, or 5.8 gal, fuel tank is part of the console configuration. A 15-inch short-shaft outboard is required, with 15 HP recommended, 25 HP maximum, and a 70 kg, or 154 lb, maximum engine weight.

Setup and Outboard Considerations

The supplied boat includes a sport console with steering, an upholstered bow cushion, rear bench seating with storage, an integrated 22 L fuel tank, LED navigation lights, automatic bilge pump, and stainless steel grab rails.

Before Ordering the AB Inflatables Mares 10 VSX Rigid Inflatable Boat

Confirm that your lifting, trailer, dock, and storage plan supports the 3.20 m overall length and 175 kg net weight. You should use a 15-inch short-shaft outboard, select 15 HP as the recommended power level, avoid exceeding 25 HP or 70 kg engine weight, confirm the 22 L fuel-tank configuration, and remain within the four-person and 450 kg maximum capacity limits.
