Sunpower Yachts International Pty Ltd, a pioneer in luxury solar electric marine technology, proudly announces the global launch of the Sunpower Solar-eJET 3.3m Inflatable Tender, the world's first solar e-jet tender designed to be seamlessly recharged directly from the yacht's solar energy system—eliminating the need for fuel, cables, or shore power.

This revolutionary addition redefines sustainability, elegance, and autonomy at sea, allowing yacht owners and guests to enjoy a fully electric lifestyle from yacht to shore. Designed to perfectly complement the entire Sunpower fleet, including the flagship Sunpower-Stealth-Solar-e-137ft, this solar-powered tender delivers performance, style, and freedom without compromise.

"The Sunpower Solar-eJET tender marks a turning point in clean marine innovation," said Grant from Sunpower Yachts. "No more trailing fuel cans or relying on marina power. Now your tender is as self-sufficient as your yacht—powered by the sun, always ready to go."

Seamless solar-to-tender charging

The Solar-eJET 3.3m is engineered for direct integration with the Sunpower yacht's solar energy system. When stowed in its dedicated tender bay, a built-in connection point allows the tender to plug straight into the yacht's solar charging port—no separate chargers, cables, or setup required. This intelligent interface ensures the tender's battery is continuously topped up from the yacht's solar array, so it is always ready for use the moment it is deployed. Simply unplug from the yacht and drive away with 100% charge on your Sunpower Solar-eJet Tender.
