Williams Solas 505

DieselJet 505 is a versatile, premium‑class tender designed for yachts of 30 metres and larger. Whether you need a practical day‑to‑day runabout, a boat for active recreation, or coastal cruising, this tender delivers. In the SOLAS‑certified version, it can also serve as a lifeboat on yachts with a gross tonnage exceeding 500 GT.

The tender’s reliability has been proven through a rigorous series of tests: capsize trials, drop tests, impact tests against the hull, and a demanding four‑hour continuous endurance test. After capsizing, the boat rights itself in approximately 13 seconds and remains capable of continuing operation for up to 30 minutes.

DieselJet 505 accommodates up to 9 people and reaches speeds of up to 31 knots. Its waterjet propulsion and optimised hull lines ensure confident manoeuvring in tight spaces and at high speeds. Passenger comfort is taken care of with ergonomic seats, footrests, and multiple handholds. Non‑slip steps and a removable auxiliary handrail further enhance boarding safety.
