New Club Tender Progress Report 24/04/2025

General Committee members Rod Carr and James Yearsley recently visited Robust Boats in Wales to inspect the progress on the build of HISC’s new Club Tender. 

We’re pleased to report that construction is progressing well. While there is a slight delay in the originally planned delivery, the new tender is now expected to arrive at HISC in late May or early June. Rod and James were impressed with the build quality and attention to detail. 

Club Trustee Rod Carr shared the following update from the visit: 

“We had an excellent trip to Robust Boats over the past 24 hours and can confirm that construction of the new Selene is well advanced. The Suzuki engines are installed, the hull is antifouled, and we had detailed discussions around fendering, bollards, handholds, ramp arrangements, and more. We left with confidence that Robust are on top of the build process. This new tender should be a fantastic asset for Members for many years to come.”
