The Tempest 900 has a new deck plan for day cruising with more space and comfort features. It is available as a single or twin engine boat with a maximum power of 500 hp.

Farniente and relaxation

The new Tempest 900 Open is 9.42 m long and is approved as a category B boat, with a capacity of up to 18 people. Its deck plan, inspired by the Tempest 1000 Open and WA, lends itself to day cruising and lounging with numerous relaxation areas.

A protected square

At the stern, the U-shaped saloon is protected by high polyester reinforcements integrated on the hypalon floats. These gunwales integrate backrests, but also handrails. Three storage lockers are hidden under each bench seat. The cockpit table is removable as standard. As an option, it can be replaced by a fixed hydraulic table with the option of an additional sunbathing area to create a large solarium of more than 3 m2, notably by lowering the back of the rear bench.

An ergonomic and spacious center console

The leaning-post with two adjustable seats and backrest houses a sink and a cutting board with work surface and cup holders in the back. A stove and 65 L refrigerator can be installed as an option.

The nicely sized center console is tall and well protected by a tinted windshield. The dashboard can accommodate up to two 12-inch screens, a radio (optional) and full engine instrumentation. Two open storage compartments allow you to store personal belongings.

Storage or washroom

The front of the console is equipped with a double bench seat. The latter conceals a tilting door that gives access to a storage space. The high headroom also allows the space to be transformed into an optional bathroom with a marine toilet, black water tank, mirror, sink, flexitek covering and storage pocket. This option is particularly suitable for boaters who want to have all the comforts on board for a day at sea or for families with children.

Sunbathing at the bow

in the bow, the large sundeck with a large storage locker can be further extended with an optional cushion. The polyester dolphin, as on the Tempest 1000 Open with electric windlass and large anchor locker, can also be used for bow landing.

Options to improve comfort

Several options are available, starting with the T-Top and its new steel structure that frees up more space for side passages and gives the Tempest 900 a sleeker look. Side extensions allow for the installation of shade cloths attached to two carbon supports to protect the entire rear saloon.
