When it comes to deciding about your new jet tender, we know there are many options out there for you to choose from, but there are some definitive reasons that make ABJET® the best option to consider on your next purchase.
DESIGN AND ERGONOMICS.
We should start by saying that every deck of ABJET® is made from a single unit of fiberglass. This means no added or moving parts, quiet navigation, easier maintenance, and increased longevity.
On the more compact models, AB Inflatables has set the standard of capacity by designing Jets with the best person capacity available. All the ABJET® portfolio comes with a double seating position on the pilot seat and many more in the bow area. This allows owners to engage in simple activities such as teaching the young how to drive the tender by staying at their side, enjoy a wonderful ride on a bay, or simply approach a dock as a couple. Two people seated comfortably at the rear while keeping unparalleled performance and total maneuverability was a feature sorely missing from the industry – by pooling all of our engineering capabilities, we have made that possible for our customers
Additionally, all floors have been designed to be completely flat and free of obstacles. There is no doubt that space is key on these boats, the ABJET® offers the best option available, meaning carry-ons on deck will no longer be an issue. That said, all our the ABJET® tenders have storage compartments as we believe that power and performance should be complemented always with comfort and safety – even the ABJET® 2,90 mts (9,6’) tender, the smallest of our portfolio, offers a convenient storage compartment.
From the ABJET® 350XP and up, you will find a unique design in which space on deck becomes the new benchmark. The ABJET® 350XP also includes a removable lateral seat for the owner to place it according to capacity needs. On the ABJET® 430XP and 465XP, the seating at the bow is distributed in a unique way that enables a walkway while optimizing weight distribution, keeping performance standards. The bow area can also be converted into a sunbed for those who want to relax and take in the rays.
In the safety and health arena, the ABJET® is the most reliable jet tender available; its throttle is ergonomically positioned just at the pilot’s side, this instead of having it in the console at front, will let the pilot to ride safely and comfortably, obtaining the greatest experience on the water.
BRP ROTAX® OEM FOR THE COMPLETE JET PROPULSION SYSTEM.
One of the key aspects you should consider in your next jet tender evaluation is the propulsion system. On this matter, AB Inflatables takes the lead considering that ABJET® line comes equipped with the complete BRP-Rotax® propulsion system as OEM, which means that each ABJET® includes not only the Rotax® engine but also the BRP Jet Pump. The practical benefit of this is that not only does it obtain the best performance on the water, but it also provides the best coverage. This is because any SeaDoo® or BRP-JPS service station can potentially service your complete propulsion system no matter where you find yourself in the world.
It is also important to note that AB Inflatables has built its name under the main pillars of quality and restless dedication to service, guaranteeing peace of mind due to our experience of more than 50 years producing the tenders and RIBs of the best quality.
BEST QUALITY MADE IN-HOUSE, NOWHERE ELSE.
Not only do we oversee the entire production process, we also implement a tracking system that allows us to keep a record and sample for each of the 3000+ boats we produce annually. Our detailed control lets us track even the slightest detail (even telling us which operator was responsible for the attachment of a single lifting handle), ensuring you are provided with a consistently superior product, time and time again.
When considering your next jet tender, make sure you have a look inside your options when evaluating alternatives. We invite you to open the compartments, the engine room, and carefully analyze the fittings. It is not only about the bright and luxurious details on the outside but also the faultless work and finish on the inside.
When it comes to superior production, we don’t just follow the rules of the most renowned certification entities – we go above and beyond the call of duty. That’s why we are certified under the most stringent certifications and standards including NMMA, CE and ISO. This means we receive frequent visits from the certification representatives and its experts to validate we are applying only the best methods and procedures in our production processes.
All our certificates are available for our customers when buying an ABJET®.
UNMATCHED CUSTOMIZATION CAPABILITIES.
As each of our products are made in house, we offer the flexibility of creating and designing a tender fit for your needs.
This includes customized upholstery and tube color options, dinghy coating and consoles along with electronics and your favorite gadgets among others. Most importantly, some of our customization options can be implemented with no additional costs to you.
