I've been looking at buying a tender for our 22'

Dave, The 240 T seems identical to the Achilles LT-4, now built in China. I'd compare prices online. Make sure it's constructed of Hypalon. Happy Hunting!

the dealer tells me that they are made in south Korean
the same as the Alaska series boats but I will have to ask him what material they are constructed of
thanks very much

The Achilles LT-4 weighs about 56 lbs., the 240 T is listed as weighing 32kg or about 79 lbs., a heavy tender and most likely made of PVC. For the money I don't think you can beat the LT-4, it's the tender I'm probable going to buy. Defiantly think the Alaska Series is by far the best tender available, but that extra grand in cost can be spent on other boat toys.

I sold my wooden dinghy last year and bought a Mercury PVC inflatable. I'm very happy with it based on my experience from this past season. Mine came with a 5-year warranty. Hypalon is probably the best but dramatically more expensive as I recall.
