Polycraft 3.00 Tuffy Tuff Tender Our Pack 1 – Boat Only

Product Overview

The Polycraft 3.00 Tuffy Tuff Tender Our Pack 1 – Boat Only is a compact, tough, and versatile small boat designed for users who need reliability and simplicity on the water. Whether used as a tender, small fishing craft, or resort workboat, the Tuffy is lightweight, easy to handle, and built to last.

Polycraft’s signature dual-skin polyethylene hull gives this 3.00-metre vessel exceptional toughness, stability, and buoyancy. It’s impact-resistant, virtually maintenance-free, and unaffected by corrosion or UV exposure—making it an ideal choice for both saltwater and freshwater environments.

Perfect for boating enthusiasts, marinas, or commercial operators who prefer to power their boat with an outboard of their choice, the Tuffy Pack 1 offers unmatched flexibility and long-term value.

How It Works

The Polycraft 3.00 Tuffy Tuff Tender is built using rotational moulding, a process that creates a seamless, double-skin hull filled with air chambers. This unique design enhances flotation and stability, while also dampening noise and vibration during operation.

The hull’s flat, wide base provides a safe and steady platform for loading or standing. Its lightweight construction means easy launching, towing, and storage—ideal for those who need a boat that’s practical and ready for action whenever required.

Because this version is boat-only, it’s compatible with small outboards up to 6HP, giving users the freedom to fit Yamaha, Mercury, Suzuki, or electric motors according to their preference and intended use.

Safety and Responsible Operation

Polycraft boats are engineered with inherent buoyancy and high internal freeboard to provide a safe and stable experience on the water. Operators should always ensure load limits are respected, wear lifejackets, and follow local marine safety regulations. The Tuffy Tender’s durable, non-slip surfaces and strong handholds make it particularly suitable for safe boarding and tender duties.

• Rinse with fresh water after saltwater use.

• Store in a shaded or covered area to extend hull life.

• Inspect bungs and fittings periodically for tightness.
