Targa 47 garage

[Bluejumper]

Needing to buy a tender for my new (to me) T47. Does anybody have drawings of the size of the garage. FAIRLINE seem unable or unwilling to send me details. I have heard so many different stories of what can or cannot fit. Williams 285 or 325? I am more inclined to go with an outboard 3M (Brig or AB) I am not out to the boat until March so cannot measure. Any help much appreciated.

It will fit a 285 with part deflated tubes. When it comes out it is squishy but usable. A friend has one. They also sell a special “ ramp “ to get it in and out.

someone on here recently said a 325 would fit fully deflated. Having seen the 285 in there I would be sceptical but even with an electric inflator inflating and deflating it would take time and drive you nuts.

Thanks for your input. Still would prefer an outboard tender I think.

These seem a good idea. On my shopping list if I ever get well enough to use one.

I looked in a Fairline brochure from 2006, and they say 2.7 m Fairline RIB would fit...There is also a picture but this one would´t help...

I really hope this is the year that you make your recovery.

Key appointment on Friday, if he doesn't want to get involved I have a problem.

a 325 will just fit. but it does have to be very deflated and positioned just right for the hatch to close. Help someone with this a few years ago and it worked for them but did mean it took time to get it in and out.

A 2.7m Valiant (Fairline RIB) fits in my T40 easily without deflation.

Quicksilver Ali 290 in mine with outboard does the job for us and plenty room to store extra gear as well.

We have a 2008 T47 with a wiliams 285. Fits fine. No deflation required.
