Why do I see so little discussion about jet drive tenders?

Bombardier Sportster Jet boat tender

We love our Sea Doo jet boat’s dry, smooth ride, serviceable at any Sea Doo place. We tow it outta the way with our Towdster bars.
Of course the captain had to supercharge it, it will reach 70 mph, what’s that in knots?

The size and sophistication of a tender is usually a function of the size of the mother vessel. For instance, larger vessels can find tenders with twin inboard engines with a capacity of dozens of people practical.

Interesting - we had a 19' Nautica with a 115 Hp outboard and also a 19" Nautica with a 200 Hp jet drive. The advantage was justt about always with the outboard.

What engine and drive on the Nautica? Nautica died before our first RIB purchase so never learned that much about them.

This RIB with outboards was easy to tow and only needed about 10" pf water or so....
