Last week Carl Persak joined Tim Heywood of Tim Heywood Designs Ltd and Hugo van Wieringen of Azure Naval Architects at the Superyacht Design Symposium to present the topic, "Tenders: How do these essential toys influence and constrain the design of a yacht?"  The panel used their experience with the 281-foot motoryacht Cakewalk’s impressive full beam tender bay as a case study for their discussion.
