The story behind the build
Aerowave Swift Tender 270 SI
The 2.7m mid-size Swift Tender — the everyday all-rounder for owners who want more than a compact yacht tender but less than a full sports boat. Rated to 10HP, seats 3–4 adults, and still packs down to fit in the boot of a family SUV.
Built on the same 1.2mm German VALMEX® PVC as our Viper flagships
Built for
- Everyday tender, mooring and shore-run duty
- Small-family day-boating on calm water — estuaries, rivers, sheltered bays
- Fishing platforms with easy 10HP outboard performance
- Owners who need a boat that packs into a car boot or caravan boot
Why this boat
- Premium 1.2mm German VALMEX® PVC
- Thermo-welded seams — no glued joints to fail in Australian heat
- High-pressure woven air deck floor — rigid enough to stand on comfortably, packs down small
- Deep-V hull profile — drier ride and better tracking than a flat-bottom tender
- 3+1 chamber safety architecture with over-pressure relief valves on every chamber
- CE certified to ISO 6185 and EU Directive 2013/53/EU

Frequently asked questions
What outboard suits the 270 SI?
Rated to 10HP. A 5–8HP outboard is the practical everyday choice; 10HP for those who want to plane fully loaded.
Can two adults fish comfortably?
Yes — the 270 SI is our sweet spot for two adults fishing or diving in bays and estuaries.
How does the aluminium floor compare to an air deck?
The rigid aluminium floor gives a firmer underfoot feel — better when standing to fish or moving gear. Air decks are lighter to pack; aluminium is more solid on the water.
Need insurance for your boat?
We compare quotes from Club Marine, Nautilus Marine and Trident Marine for you — one short form, quotes back by email, no obligation.
